    Hi team.

    Newb here who has just put a deposit down on his first Triumph, thought I'd start at the bottom & work my way up, so I've ordered a Speed Triple RS.

    Live here in sunny Torquay (so obviously not the one in England) & will be thrashing said RS up & down the Great Ocean Road when it arrives in early January.

    Looking forward to seeing what all the fuss is about! :)

    Dodging tourists driving on the wrong side of the road while riding at 80 klm/h....
    It's not as much fun as it used to be in the old days.... :sob:

    Well its finally arrived & been on the bike bench for the few minor mods that will be happening. Screen, elec shifter, evotech rad & oil cooler guards & evotech tail tidy, Triumph oggy knobs & tank pad, & most importantly, red anodised clutch cable guide.....
    I think I've found all the warning stickers to remove, the upside is they were all easier to remove then any previous bike I've had. The pillion peg brackets seem to have fallen off as well. :)
    A quick trip down the Great Ocean Road yesterday showed what this bike was built for.
