    Hi everyone, the name's Dan, and the ride's a Thruxton. I spent much of my teenage years in Vancouver on Japanese motorcycles, but my heart has always belonged to the classic British bikes, thanks to the nostalgia they stir from my childhood in Argentina. I was on a motorcycle before I could even walk—no exaggeration. I still remember my whole family—dad, mom, brother, and me—piled onto an old Norton, weaving through the streets of Buenos Aires. Now, I am the proud owner of one of the last Thruxtons made, the 2025 FE. I am glad to have found this forum, knowing the value these clubs bring. We will chat soon.
