Hello lads,

Just joined up. I've been on car and bike model specific forums for ages, and only just found this forum the other day. Decided to join a more general biking forum in the hope of finding some more local bikers, whatever bikes they ride.

I run a 2009 Triumph Street Triple R, got about 4.5K miles down on her since purchasing mid April this year. Here's c couple of pics a few weeks after I picked the bike up -

Cheers Very Happy

Your not too far from me, would be nice to go for a ride out sometime. Maybe have a little swap of bikes so I can see what all the fuss is about over the Triumph's, Wink

Thanks for the warm welcome all Smile

I've joined the South East group, so will see who's about in Camberley and surrounding areas. Anyone head down to Loomies biker cafe on the A32/A272 crossroads? Decent roads down there, although the A272 if often quite heavily policed these days.

The STR is running very well and has nearly 7K on her now. The bike came to me with a fair few of the Triumph options from new, such as the Arrow cans, belly pan and headlight cowl. I've had the headlights powder coated satin black (originally chrome), fitted bar end mirrors and recently fitted the Triumph adjustable short levers. I still want to powder coat the rear sets satin black and the rear end sorely needs a tail tidy!!
