    Just bought my first Triumph. Been riding for 50 years since age 10. All of my previous bikes have been Japanese sports bikes. So I decided to try out a 2008 Sprint ST with 15k miles on an Impulse Buy. Really nice bike. Needed some TLC. The front brakes need attention so ive ordered new pads and rotors. I also might have to address the calipers. Wait and see. I've already done plugs, air filter, oil change and detailed it.

    Anyway that's it for now.​

    Greetings and welcome to the forum, @OLDMANMADSPEED! I'm a former Minnesotan from a small farm town in the SW corner of the state. Been in Arizona for 30 years now, though. Welcome to the wonderful world of Triumph, too! Interesting switch from Japanese sport bikes to a Triumph. Let us know how you get on with the bike. And photos are always appreciated!
