As some of you might know, (thou not necessarily care), I was forced to sell my Silver Bird, thou I shed a tear when the new owner agreed to buy it, I never thought I would miss it as much as I did. I even dreamt about buying another.
I began to "build" a new one on the Triumph web site and was going thru the classifieds daily. I then came across a 2011 T-Bird with ABS, Long Haul seat, Back Rest, Sissy Bar and Rack, Front and Rear Running Boards and heated grips with 6,500 km's for a pretty good price.

Checked it out and found it was a repairable write off. I had some concerns which lasted about 30 seconds then I committed to buy it. It's not my favorite colour, Cranberry, but hey! it's a bird! and one that I can (almost) afford. the extra money i got for mine helped pay of a few things.
Financially, it's not an ideal situation but if I'm to be depressed due to money, i may as well be depressed about money WITH a Bird!!!

If anyone from South Aus knows anything about this bike, I'd love to hear from you.

Great News Eddie.

I live in SA but am pretty remote so know nothing about the bike.

I hope you and the bike have a long and happy association. Looking forward to seeing you at Tumbarumba.
