    Hi my name is Dave and I have been riding Triumphs for a few years. I have had a 955 Sprint ST, a 1050 Sprint ST, a Rocket III, a Boneville T100, a new Tiger 900 GT Pro, and now a Thunderbird Storm. I have had a selection of other bikes as well CBR 600, VTR 1000 Firestorm, Fazer 600, VFR 800 VTEC. So quite a varied selection and I am a member of the British Legion Riders Branch. I attend the odd bike rally like the Ogri and Rorkes Drift to name a few. I also regularly attend RTTW. I am an ex Serviceman and Engineer, now specialising in engineering training. I am looking forward to chatting with you and hopefully learning and offering some of the knowledge and experiences I have had.

    Greetings from New Jersey.

    Nice bike!

    Thunderbird would have been my choice if Triumph was still making them. I had a 1960 Thunderbird (the car) in my youth. I love my Speedmaster, but the T-Bird would likely have been a better fit for my 6'2' frame.
