This is my first post. First of all, sorry for my English!!!

I got this bike 'cos I've always wanted a Triumph and, mostly, 'cos my brother and two brothers in law have harleys. I needed a reason to argue in Christmas meetings.
Now I'm thinking in a total change: color, seat, etc. I'm looking for a non painted tank to make same proofs.

Been on the Madrid ring road a few times on the way down to Faro and Morocco. Love the National Parc Du Picos in Northern Spain, a bikers heaven...

Welcome to the Forum ! Now that's a clean shiny bike. Here's an idea - black powder coat the sprocket cover just like you have on the peg hanger and it will make that motor really stand out. Nice !

Yes. Picos is nice. From there to Galicia is our celtic area. It's not very different to some places in UK. I've been several times in the North, mostly in Lancashire. And Scotland is another bikers heaven.
Better thing in UK to drive is traffic signals, big and usually before the trees and not behind as many times here.

Very nice bike and welcome. I get to have the same conversations you have at Christmas but I get to all year long. Just about everyone I ride with ride Harleys. I usually just let them know I am bringing some "class" to the ride.
