    Hello Bob, I also did the "Ride round the block till I jump out waving my clipboard " test. My mate said take a pair of snippers in your pocket to clip of the L plates as no one ever fails !!!! ! which I did . I have had a few Triumphs only had this Bonnie Se a few weeks. very pleased with it. sure you will love yours.

    Hi Bob W,re the K 'n Q seat, don't be in a hurry to get rid of that mate - they may look a bit like a smacked arse, but they are comfy, more comfy than the std. Triumph seat. Especially important if you plan to do distances.

    Thanks Biglad, I just need to get some decent kit now, I am riding round 60's style at the moment - ice blue jeans, winkle pickers etc.(well not winkle pickers - that would be going too far) I've got a decent lid though:D

    Well I know what you mean Crispey I wasn't too sure myself about it either but it is very comfy. It does take that 60 /70s look away a little bit I must admit, but hey my racing days are over now so I need all the comfort I can get.

    The K&Q seats are very comfy iv tried one, but I do like the lines of a standard one. There is a standard seat on ebay at the mo. Hope alls going well with the bonnie and your putting a few miles on. let us Know
