    Howdy gents. So stop by a local bike shop to look at the xrs 900 from Yamaha and low and behold I noticed this beautiful girl. A 22 red color speed twin. Wow I’m in love. Never thought about a triumph until now. I have built a pre unit bobber back in the days but now looking to get back in the game.

    Thanks guys. There is a used street speed at the shop for half the price but not sure if it will be enough power on the freeway out here. What do you guys think?

    Welcome to the family. Cool looking steed there. Couple of the peeps here have nice chops. I am sure they will introduce themselves soon with pics. What i would say take a good look at the wiring and switch's as that can end up being more expense listen well to the engine look for leaks and black smoke. All jobs easily rectified but only if the price is right.
    Joe.
