    Been on here for a week now, And thought it was about time i introduced myself ,
    I have got my first Triumph and am loving it, clocked a a good few miles while we had the sunshine.
    I have been riding MC for many years and have owned every thing from a Hayabusa to a G12 Matchless ,
    I currently have the Triumph 2012 scrambler a Kawasaki 750 Zephyr, which as now been sold, and five BSA bantams , a 1049 D1, 1958 D5, 1957 D3 etc etc.
    I attended a Triumph rally held by the Royal Berkshire Triumphs members on the Zephyr in 2016 and have been toying with the idea of owning a Triumph since then.
    Being tall i really didn't fit very well on the standard Bonville but the Scrambler is a perfect fit .

    @DiMarco Hi and welcome, I'd recommend you start your own thread in the newbies as this one is Dave's and some people can get very territorial:cool:
    I'm sure he'll let you off though, common newbie mistake.

    Always good to start a thread of your own as some people frown on hijacking other members thread.
