    Just wanted to give a quick hello to the folks on the forum. As of yesterday, I'm the new owner of a 2019 Speed Twin. Picked it up for a song at a local consignment dealer, almost all farkled up. (Not that I think you should bolt too much onto a naked bike...)

    I used to be active on these forums ~4 years ago under a similar name back when I had a 2012 Tiger 800 (which was insanely farkled) Left riding for a bit when I sold it, but decided I needed the bike therapy again, of course came back to Triumph. Meet "Joe" my new ride!

    I appreciate having a place to passionately discuss all the weird little fiddly things about mechanical stuff with other people who get it :)

    Welcome (back) to the forum, Nico! Joe is a very handsome chap indeed. That Corbin seat looks good to my eye on your Speed Twin. I hope that you get some decent weather in Denver before winter sets in so you can get some good rides in on your new bike.
