Hi Been lurking in this forum for a while now. Just sold my Diavel and currently have an Africa Twin Triumph must have had some new designers start at Hinkley as they are releasing some real beauties at a great rate. Looking to get the new Rocket GT but sorely tempted to get a Thruxton and Speed twin instead. Reading the posts on this forum only adds to my dilemmas! Great forum and looking forward to becoming part of it.
Hi and welcome. Agree with you. Triumph must have one of the broadest ranges of bikes available at the moment; AND, a bike to suit most appetites. Whilst I am a Honda devotee, my dealership sits next to a Triumph dealer in Stratford-upon-Avon (Performance Triumph) and I often gaze at everything from Bobbers to Thruxtons. The company 'resurrection' seems to leap forward every year!
Welcome aboard Sleepy owl, hope you've been enjoying the forum, good to have you in proper, are test rides on the cards on the Thruxton and Speed twin, keep us posted and pics of course if you make a purchase
Hi, Go for the ”2 bikes option”. Thats what I did and couldn’t be happier. Just as you, coming from Ducati. After just have had the Speed Twin and the TTR for a week it is clear that I will use the TTR more... Good luck with your decision, either way you can’t go wrong!!!
SleepyOwl. Welcome to the family. Or should I say the asylum. Here the inmates do like pictures and nursey encourages them so she can get a rest. What type of riding do you wish to achieve from a new bike. Might help the inmate fit you to a new saddle more suited to what you want. Ride Safe & Enjoy Joe.
Hi Sleepyowl and welcome to the forum plenty of time to rest ride waiting for GT to arrive. I can understand the two bike options, but put all my love into one.
