Hello - long time member, usually a lurker; esp the last few years since I sold my 04 America. Sold my Super Glide Custom (got heavier every year!) and just bought my new to me 2010 America and just wanted to drop in and say hi. America #2 is a gas to ride & the 865 engine with the factory mapped TORS really gets things moving! Good to be back! https://flic.kr/p/KU8qyb

I just bought a 2010 as well, same color scheme, 'cept it's a Speedy. Them fugly wheels have to go. It must have been a different person who designed the America wheels which look great, IMO. But the 2nd Gen Speedy mags, yuck.

Hi Ryk! Congrats on your new Speedy... Enjoy your new ride! I kinda thought the wheels looked pretty decent on the Speedys that year, but then, beauty's subjective, eh?

Findlay and Gregger - thanks! Good to be here and thanks for the kind words on the scoot. It's great to be back on a Triumph again! It matches my wife's Bonneville's colors, so that's a plus.

Hey Beamer - welcome back to you too! I'm glad to see that some of us are coming back. I just got my new BA.com patches today; looking forward to getting one on my current vest.
Thanks for the hello!
