Good morning to all.

Finally I have bought the triumph.

The owner of the dealership sent my phone number to the former owner, and he called me and detailed all the status of the motorcycle and the maintenance.

And finally on Thursday, in the evening, the motorcycle arrived (I hired a transport service).

The first thing I want to say is that the motorcycle is beautiful. The stock motorcycle does not need any modifications. The motorcycle is very well designed.

The accessories it has, such as the seat, the windshield and the backrest, are all from triumph. The previous owner also put a lithium battery in it.

What little I have driven it, I am delighted. It is a motorcycle that invites you to enjoy the road.

Bad pictures.

Congrats on your very nice purchase.

The TB is indeed a complete bike, but there is always room for modifications.

The one thing that will improve ride performance, good value for money, is changing rear dampers to Hagon ones.

Any time you need an advise or want to share something, just come to the forum. We are there for for you or just enjoin your tour pictures.

Summer is coming to Spain, so I wish you a nice ride into the sunset.

So ... you've had the bike for a few weeks now. Has it grown on you even more ... has the love deepened?
