Hi Dan,
Welcome! I hope you'll soon be at home here. I chose Triumph's Bonneville America because Triumph has always been my first love in motorcycles. When I bought it, I was expecting it to be like my older Triumphs, Harleys and one BSA - working on them regularly. I have been pleasantly surprised. These bikes are as close to 'bullet proof' as any I've ever owned, and I've owned them all (above mentioned + BMW, YamaHondaKawazuki). Now, the bad part: At 41,500 miles, my clutch cable unraveled and separated. At 43,000 miles my throttle cable broke. I think I was supposed to swap them out around the 30,000 mile mark. That's it. The only two problems I've had. I love this motorcycle. You will too. You'll love the way it handles, and the way it looks and the way it rides. You may even love the attention it grabs. You will definitely love the people on this site. We encourage each other, advise each other, compliment each other, and relentlessly pick on each other.
Again, Welcome!!!
