    Hi all,
    After reluctantly selling my 2010 Triumph Street Triple R in 2013, pining after it for several years and a brief affair with a Ducati, I’m back to the family with a 2016 Triumph Speed Triple R. It’s great to be back and bike is as good as I had heard!
    Based in Cork, Ireland - not sure if there are any current members close by.

    Welcome back to Triumph World, Jage, and welcome to the forum. That is certainly a good looking bike. Hope you enjoy it and the forum, too.

    Thanks very much everyone. Wasn’t much to do to the bike as the last owner got trigger happy on the accessories. Got the flyscreen visor and an OBD adapter for checking stats and clearing the service light.

    With that kind of an engine, you're going to run out of island.

    And barely even drove it too. 2016 and 2500km covered. Upgraded to buy the 2021 Speed - well whenever he can get his hands on one.
