    Welcome aboard Lliden, hope you enjoy the forum, have to say the Speed twin is a nice looking bike, just not sure about the "plank" seat that's been chosen for it, have you test ridden one, hope you have fun in deciding which to go for.

    I have a 2013 BMW K1600 GTL and just bought a 2019 Triumph Scrambler 1200 XE to add to the garage. It’s an incredible bike!
