2011 Speedmaster and America

2011 Speedmaster and America

Triumph’s well established 865cc air-cooled parallel twin provides the motivation and spins quite freely in comparison to the competition. With the optional high-flow chrome silencers ($549) both Triumphs sound quite sporting.

The forums are up again, but there are some issues. If you’re having trouble logging in, it could be an issue with your browser’s cache or cookies stored on your machine. Try deleting those and login again.

There are a few other issues. When you click the header graphic in the forums or the “Forums Home” link, it appears to log you out. But if you hit refresh or click on a forum you’ll see that you’re still logged in. Not sure why it’s doing that but it’s on the list. FIXED

Also there are error messages for creating a new post and for creating a new private message. However, these errors do not prevent one from doing these things so try to ignore them until I can fix them. FIXED

Again, thanks everyone for your patience, and keep those bug reports coming in.
