    Good day all,
    I signed up recently after purchasing my second Triumph. My first was a '79 Bonneville, which I owned for about 10 years and sold some 20 years ago. I just purchased a 2017 1200 Explorer, which was not my first choice heading into the dealer, but with Triumph incentives I rode out on the bike. It seems to me Triumph provides similar features as BMW or Ducati at a much better price. At least for me, that's how it went down here on Long Island, New York (US).

    Welcome in Dan. Strangely enough I walked into an old triumph dealership which turned out to be Harley Davidson one and ended up buying a bag of shite HD. Sold it and tried again for a real bike and ended up with one, loving my modern Bonneville!!

    Welcome to the group. It looks like you found the best Adventure Sport bike there is. Great looking machine. Riding out on LI seems fascinating to me. Please share your stories as you go along.
