    I am Jon from Hawaii, and new to Triumph. I recently bought a 2020 Street Triple RS. This is my second bike and I've only been riding since August of 2018. My first bike was a 2015 FJ09 which I traded in.

    Thank you all for welcoming me. However less than 300 miles and I have a problem shifting into 1st. I know this is not the forum to post problems, but I have a post in the Street Triple forum called 2020 New 1st gear Prob. I certainly do not want to regret my purchase.

    Doing OK. I graduated from Damien 73'. I was on the track team and use to run up the hill to Kam for practice twice a week.
    My ride below. A 2018 Street Twin. Used to have a 2006 1100 VStar.
