Hi all, new to the forum but not new to bikes. Owned a couple of other Triumphs in the past, recently traded my S1000R for the new Speed Triple 1200 RS. Very happy with it so far! Who else has one?
Hi and welcome, There are a few guy’s on the forum that have one already or have one on order. I’m sure they will be along short edit: post some pics of your bike, we love pictures
Greetings and welcome to the forum, T-Bone! Looking forward to learning what you love about your new Speed Triple 1200RS and seeing some photos of it, too.
T-Bone Welcome to the family. Cracking steeds both of them. Bet they went down well here in the asylum as they love pictures of black bikes it is one of the favourite colours here with the inmates. Thanks for sharing the pictures. Joe.
Hola t-bone.I owned the 1050 rs and now the 1200 rs and the suspension is perfect on roads in good condition but if they are not they feel hard. I just changed tires, a friend recommended the CONTIRACE ATTACK 2 STREET and I have to say that with this type of tire the problem is over. I never thought that a tire would influence the suspension setting so much. To those of you who have the 1200, try another tire with a softer casing, it does not have to be continental, although I doubt that I will mount another tire again and I have tried supercorsa, s21, TT, rs10 ..... but none that works better with the suspension. my speed 1200 is now better than the speed 1050 rs. Please I'm sorry because I'm spanish and my english is so bad. I only want to help, metzeler is a good tire but if the road is not perfect can be a problem. The sooner I can I will introduce me. Regards
Welcome to the forum @Rixton Don't worry about your English, it is waaaay better than 90% of form members Spanish, or even English
