After I sold my BA , I bought a Suzuki and joined a forum that supports my new bike. But I sure miss the members of this forum. You all are a loyal and passionate bunch and I always enjoyed the support and camaraderie that this forum provides. And truth be told I miss my Triumph too. I still lurk around the forums to see what's going on from time to time. I've owned a couple of Triumphs and God willing if I live long enough and can keep my riding skills, I'll own another. I'll see you all around, even if it's just from the side lines. Keep the shiny side up, Bob.

Good hearing from you, Bob. As long as you're riding you should keep young enough to own another Trumpet. Keep it touch if you will!


Live to love, love to live.

Trying a little something new, the adventure bike thing. Here is a couple of pics from a ride I took last weekend to Bartlett Lake, north of Phoenix. It was all curvey road until I got to the lake, then another 4 miles of pretty rough off-road to get back to the dam. This is what I bought the bike for.

Absolutely! What Mac said here, Bob!


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)

Yeah, I ride it to work everyday, weather permitting. And on weekends I take a lot of long rides. It has proven to be a very good commuter bike. It is a good compromise between size, power and balance. This is my first fuel injected bike and first water cooled bike. So far I like it very much.

Lovely pics Bob, especially the one with the B26 Marauder in the background. Appreciate it when you do drop by.

Don't know why you sold that BA of yours Robert. It was one of the prettiest bikes I've seen on our forum since joining it.
