    Hi all
    Just joined the forum so time to introduce myself. Live just outside Fareham, Hants and currently ride a Thunderbird LT which I love. It’s a hell of a machine. I had a long break from bikes due to kids etc, then 3 years ago got a Tiger 1050 SE to “get my balance back” . Always wanted a Rocket 3 but struggled to find a good one, then spotted the Thunderbird in the show room. Apart from having to get the exhaust cam replaced due to the decompression mechanism snapping off, its been good as gold. Anyone else had that problem?
    Look forward to chatting to you all.

    Great bike and welcome to the Family. You do know we will want a picture of the Steed to calm us whilst Nursey medicates us.
    Ride Safe
    Joe.
