    Have two Triumphs. Just bought a 2915 Thunderbird today. Also have a 2017 T120. Been riding for 60 years+, riding Harleys and victory's the last 10 years. Picked up the T120 on a whim and wow! What a nice ride! So impressed I bought the Tbird. Wow again. Those Brits build a fine motorcycle. I also have a 2014 Moto Guzzi California 1400, as well as my Victory Judge. Ride every day because I'm retired. Dogs and motorcycles are my life.

    Great occupation to have and a bike for every day. Welcome to our family. Nice to know you like the British metal. Do hit the upload a file button bottom right corner and show the inmates some of your collection. Here in the asylum we love bike pictures.

    I'll take pictures of the Triumphs as soon as it stops raining. Having owned many motorcycles, American, Japanese, Korean, German, the features I find most appealing about the Triumphs are; (1) Perfectly balanced, not top-heavy (2) Smooth engines, minimal vibes. The Brits have conquered the counter-balancing trick (3) Smoothest, most effortless shifting

    Greetings, Bill, and welcome to both the world of Triumph and this forum, too. As Joe said, please take some photos and share them with us. Photos of your other bikes are always welcome, too! And speaking of photos--and dogs--there's a thread called "Our Pets". We'd love to be introduced to your dogs, too!

    Very nice Bill. :eek: funny, I was against white bikes until a mate had a Victory, the larger cruisers really suit it (when clean)
    Now I have a black and white Bonneville :cool:
