    Welcome to the family. What a great win you had there. Suppose that has sorted the choice of bike for you. Good luck with the test and keep us all in the know.
    Joe.

    Welcome. I have one of those older Street Triples and they're excellent. None of the bells and whistles modern bikes tend to have but all of the fun.

    Won? Is this a wind up. If not, it's seriously cool.

    Their corporate video is also cheesy but mildly engaging.

    Sadly I am a tight arse and can’t afford to spend the price of a curry to gamble.

    I’d rather have the certainty of a curry.
