    Hello everyone,

    New to forums but thought I would sign up after browsing around the site and finding some good stuff on here.
    I have two Triumphs, pictures attached. Just purchase the T595 and have had the wee Street Triple since new in 2011. Love the Street Triple to bits and could never see myself part with her, even the thought makes me feel real pain :grinning:
    The T595 was bought on a whim, not sure how it will go as I have already had a few issues with the bike. I had one when they first came out. It was my first big bike and I loved it too, right up until I buried it into the side of a landrover. Accident was confidence exceeding talent on my behalf:grinning:
    I look forward to looking around the site and getting useful tips on all things bike related.

    Have a good day
    Andy

    Thanks for taking the time to welcome me onto the forum.
    Have read a few threads already and there is some really useful stuff and some great photos.
    I have the wheels off the Street Triple at the paint shop for a slightly different paint job. Hoping to get them back in a few weeks, will post a few pictures once I have them on the bike.
    Always a worry when you change the design in case it doesn't seem as good in reality as it did in my head:grinning:

    Hi, Thank you. :)
    The daytona does look fabulous, especially in the sun.
    I see that you have a nice Thruxton in your pictures. Do you still have it and what do you think of it as a bike to own?
