    Hello.

    I'm Alex (Biff being a nickname) from Buckinghamshire. I got back into Biking in 2016 when I retired. Got myself a 2006 America, which I've just parted with for a 2021 Speedmaster. Woo Hoo!!

    Hope to see some of you guys around.
    Stay Safe.

    Biff

    Thanks for the welcome, Dawsy. I note the subtle hint ....

    This is the last photo the America I took before exchanging her.

    Had a few problems last year: lost power in one cylinder, massive backfire which blew one exhaust. Took a while to sort out - one igniter was playing up, so replaced both. And replaced the exhausts with Motea cut-offs (token bafflement). Couldn't find Triumph replacements.

    She was LOUD. Shop took her as part-exchange no problem.

    A picture of the Motea (Craftride Cafe Racer Turn outs) Cutoff's fitted: Ein kleiner Auspuff as Mozart would say.

    I have a movie with sound but can't seem to post it.

    Greetings and welcome to the forum, Biff. Love that photo of the American and you (I'm assuming). Can't wait to see a photo or two of the new Speedmaster. Hope you enjoy this forum community!
