    Hi All,

    On my fourth Triumph. As a concession to an ageing body I went smaller and lighter (Daytona 660) and am loving it. Based in S. Cumbria.

    Hi Andy and welcome. Yes I think we all have one of those aging bodies, and as they say "nothing improves with age" Thank god for the elctric start. I am of an age (and many others on this forum) who remember the old kick starts. Still riding so great.

    Hi Andy and a warm welcome to the friendly forum, enjoy you new machine. I am not a million miles away in North Lancashire. Ride safe from an ageing Rocker.

    welcome! As I push around my 662 pound Trophy SE or 590 pound Sprint GT 1050, I suspect that a lighter bike is in my future! How do you find it? The reduced weight must be a bit uncomfortable on the motorways, but a joy on the B and C roads, right?
