Have you seen the film "Restless Natives"?

Anyway, am in.

I have a selection of balaclavas.

Triumph announced last week £800 of clothing / luggage with all new bikes.
Antybody want to tag along or offer us a coffee feel free.
Been there, done that. I LOVED the tiger. Just need to find the money to buy one.

I'd agree with this, Had a blast on a 1200 GS a few months back.. had a total hoot on it. Front end is mad, takes a lot of getting used to it not diving when you whack the brakes on! Mega comfy and also very well behaved 2 up.
Mate's dad also has one.. i used to struggle to keep up with him when i was riding the Duke on the bumpy twisty's heading up the sma' Glen for Creiff. GS far more settled on that kinda stuff.

(Know someone wi a silver 08 reg with the all important Akro pipe and luggage that might be selling soon too )

my boss has an 08 triumph sprint st and loves it him and his wife always go out on it for long journeys. He came from the rocket 3 to this and doesn't regret it at all simply down to the storage for long journeys. I love it in the Grey colour still need to get a shot off him though
