    Just joined and a happy owner of a 2016 Thruxton R, which I'm steadily making a few changes too; reversible ones only for now. ; )

    Absolutely love the bike but still getting used to using all the low down torque.

    I've never ridden a bike that turns so many heads or even raises a fair few smiles! Young, old, male, female; it's a bike that seems to be universally appreciated.

    Looking forward to learning from the forum as well as attending a few events.

    Cheers

    Sam

    Although she's from Yorkshire (North Easterner) and I'm from Cheshire (North Westerner), I've got worse circulatory issues and a bigger broom to deal with any trouble makers!
