    Hey guys! Got my first Triumph a few months ago and have been stalking these forums ever since, first post though. I actually bought my wife a '13 Street Triple and after riding it one time immediately wanted one (only bigger). So, got myself a 2019 Speed Triple RS. I'm in love. Unfortunately, we're currently hosting over 2 feet of snow here in central Washington, USA so she's very sad. Added a pic of both from happier times. 20181003_104259.jpg

    Welcome, not sure about this crazy concept of taking your missus out for a ride, it’s the only chance I get for some proper peace and quiet and to get away from all the “just jobs”

    “Hamburg, could you just.......”

    Haha. With mine it's usually "we need to ...." Which means "you need to ...." I still get the alone time though cause I ride a bit more than she wants to.
