Guys, Just a quick hello to everyone here. I've been a bit of a backroom boy and have used the forum for some time. The forum has been invaluable in researching, etc on all thi gs Triumph. For my sins I have a 2010 Sprint ST1050 which I have used to tour Wales and Northern Spain (Peco's mountains). Cheers, Andy
Is there an issue with this request or does it normally take more than 24 hours to get approval? Regards, Andy

Cheers guys and thanks for the welcome messages. I've already used the site in the sly for info and tips. Regards, Andy
Hi Andy! Pretty bike you have there! Do you have a pillion on the back? You seem to have plenty of space behind the rider, perhaps for additional luggage? I have a 2011 Sprint GT1050, and always notice the longer wheelbase compared to the ST. I assume the shorter wheelbase translates to better maneuverability in the corners. Probably a noticeable advantage in the mountains! I suspect that you have also saved a bit of weight vs the 590 pounds (267 kg) of the GT. Less weight means greater ease around the parking lots and slow places, no? My other bike, a 2013 Trophy SE at 662 pounds (300 kgs) is a bit of a beast to push around, especially with my long-suffering bride on the back! Do post photos of the mountains! (as you can see from my image, they are a favorite venue)
