    Hi all,
    Not visited the forum for years, so I’d better re introduce myself. The names Ken I’m in my mid sixties and been riding Hinckley Triumphs since the early days also had a Tiger Cub as a teenager.
    Anyway, I recently traded in my Tiger 800 for a Speed Twin and loving it!
    Thought it wouldn’t be as comfortable but I recently did a 240 mile ride with no no issues, so I’ll be taking it on a three day trip to Scotland in September. I live in the North West of England.
