Just uploaded a video of my 2006 Speedmaster. Thinking about selling my bike and thought this might help. Thoughts? Link: YouTube

"Thoughts"? Yeah, I have some thoughts here, James. I think the pictures you picked for your video were outstandingly photographed and represent some of the greatest scenery in these United States to be found. I think your video also shows to great effect the wanderlust for the open road to get to those scenic spots one often gets from just looking at their Triumph motorcycle at rest. And, I think your choice of Bob Seger's evocative music perfectly complimented the visuals in your video.  (OH...and I ALSO think IF you DO end up selling your Triumph that you're going to want to kick yourself square in the A$$ in very short order afterwards!!!)  
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Extra, super good vid. Well constructed, perfect sound track and the pics are awesome!! Very creatively done.
But to help sell your bike? That bites!

Thanks for the feedback. I do not really want to get rid of my speedmaster. I have 2 bikes (also have a 2005 Tiger) but the wife wants to park in the garage again. My boat takes up the other bay. Maybe just a little more organization out there will satisfy her.

NOW you're usin' the ol' noodle there, James!!! (and besides, I don't think I've ever heard of ANY saying that goes..."A Motorcycle is really just a big hole in the road that you throw money into!")

Why is the boat in the garage. I thought boats were designed to be in water, so why would you protect it from the rain.  I must be missing something. Keep the bike......you will kick yourself over and over if you sell it. OH, great video

Just got back from the British Bike Rally in the Blue Ridge down in Hiawasse, GA. A bunch of great looking British bikes, both new and old. Makes you want to buy more. 1968 Triumph Bonneville....wish I could find one on those without breaking the bank.

Awesome montage!!! Loved the transitions to the music, great timing.
Just a heads up... the youtube police will pull your video for using copyrighted music.
You need to send a copy to Seeger for kicks.
