Hello everyone. I've been a BA.com member for some time but not at all active; hoping to change that now my new job allows me the time. Trying to get caught up on many of the forums so I don't go asking the same question for the 20th time.

I've always loved Triumph. I rebuilt a '72 Spitfire back in high school. When I was finally able to get a bike, the choice was easy. I love my America to no end.

Anyway, I just got stationed in the Norfolk, VA area so I'll keep looking for rides going on either through here or the local dealership.
Ride on...

I'll post some pics soonest I figure out how. Guess I need to go through Photobucket or something. Not really looking at doing too much to the bike as I feel it's pretty close to perfect right off the showroom floor. I do what to add the tall sissy bar minus the rack. Then add a set of classic "leather" saddlebags. Thinking of the TourMaster Cruiser II, but certainly open for other suggestions.

Only have just over 3200 miles on it, but certainly going to put much more over the rest of the year now that I'm off a ship. Might make a run back home to Louisiana on Memorial Day weekend if not too much is going on the my neck of the woods.

Welcome, this is one place where you can just about be assured of getting a quick response to a question or problem. I guess I'm addicted as I can't let a day go by without checking posts.
