The two Triumphs we love so much on this site are really two good parallel twin sportbikes with raked out front forks and cruiser styling. Crotch rockets, no, but light and nimble for great handling, and well-built to withstand what mother nature throws at you.

For a first bike, (it was mine), I can't think of anything better to learn on. Big enough to do it all, and sporting enough to enjoy doing it. A heavier bike you would not drag out and ride as often.

Depending on where you ride, you may ride for days or weeks, and never see another Triumph!
