Default My New Bike!

As some who know me may have guessed....it wouldn't take long for me to get a new toy. Today, courtesy of Girth's work place, my good lady wife has purchased an early 30th Bday present for me. (Not bday until August!!! lol)

So, I am now the proud owner of a Triumph 955i Daytona. Its got 20k on the clock and just been fully serviced, new tyres and loads of other work has been done by the dealer. Anyways, not named or "sexed" it yet.....but here it is......(apologies for pics...taken on mobile).

Well at least it's the right colour Drew

Looks like it needs a new shock in picture 3

Seriously, that's a lovely pressie from your better half. Nice one, the pair of you

My favorite engine, you'll love it, what a thoughtful wife.

Cheers Mark.

Err, where?

I'm on a VFR750 now. Lovely machine but I miss my SV, she was something else in town.
