    HI, just joined the forum – some good stuff on here that I have already availed myself of.

    I have had a few Triumphs in the past, most recently (and most modern – ish) being a 955i Daytona and a Sprint 1050ST. I now have a yellow/silver 2017 Street Cup and just love it (now I have added a few mods of my own). I have owned a couple of 1950’s and 60’s Triumphs back in the day and the modern EFI/Liquid Cooled twins really do take me back to that era, but without the unreliability and oil leaks!

    Anyway, enjoying Triumph ownership once again and looking forward to conversing more with you guys.

    Thanks for the welcome everyone.

    As to the 595/955i, I agree. I loved my 955i (Triumph's take on the Fireblade?) and I think very underrated bikes in general. Sold that for the Sprint - another really great bike. As to the Street Cup, a pic or 2 here:
