    Just bought a 2012 Thruxton ( new to me) after 40 years of not riding. Great ride, but it's going to take some getting used to ( riding again) Doing some maintenance , then some Saturday/ Sinday morning rides to get me back in the swing
    First question : What brand of oil ?
    Wish me luck

    Greetings, Scott, and welcome to the forum. And to the wonderful world of Triumph! I had a 2012 Thruxton, too, and have a definite soft spot for them. Mine was the black with gold stripe. Which is yours? Looking forward to seeing some photos of your bike and hearing about how you like it. Hope you enjoy the forum! :)
