Welcome & Congrat's! I live in the Western MD area. I used to be on the DC Rat's list, but I don't know how active they are these days. Baltimore has two groups, the "Pete's RATS" and a splinter group the "Baltimore Renegades". I ride with Renegades when I can get down that way.

Manuals, the Haynes manual is actually pretty good. If you are not real mechanically inclined, that's probably the best manual for you, it goes into greater explanation on processes than the factory shop manual.

Hey all--! As of yesterday, I am the proud owner of my own "limey" ( as my Harley riding Uncle calls it...) and am looking for a few tips. It's bone stock right now, and I need pointed in the right direction to where to go for quality parts and work done. I live in a condo here in the DC area, and that makes working on the bike a little limited. Also, any ideas as to WHAT I can ( or should ) do to my bike is welcomed as well. (brand of pipes, or what kind of pipes, etc.) I'm a firm believer in loud pipes save lives... This winter, I'll be putting on new pipes, mirrors, and rear shocks, but beyond that, I realize the possibilities are limitless.
Also interested in local rides and/or Triumph clubs around the DC metro area.

I love my speedmaster. I traded it straight across for a '07 Hayabusa.

I'm diggin' this site. Tons of info here. Thank you!
