I,m the only Triumph owner around here that I know, all I ride with are harleys and i don,t have any problem at all keeping up. I ride 2 up alot, my wife weighs 110, no problem, a little down shifting in the mountains but everyone else seems to be shiftin too, My bike has no performance mods yet,[it runs so good I hate to mess with it]Seems pretty easy to gain a few hp if you want.
