    Hi all,
    Based in the netherlands, I have been riding a Speedmaster 2008 for the last 6 years with the greatest sound ever, but my other love was always a Thruxton R, and now I found one from 2016! So took the decision to turn in the speedy with pain in my heart and move next week from cruiser to cafe racer!

    Welcome to the family. You will love the Thruxton just as much especially the lightness compared to the speedmaster and difference in throttle response. You will love it and it will take you a day to get over your blues.
    Regards & Ride Safe.
    Joe.
