Do you ride a motorcycle?

I had to sell CUTO (CU70) last year when I moved but I’ll be back soon and ref leather the shirt and jeans I am wearing are actually fully armoured and and more abrasion resistant than kangaroo leather (Kevlar and other clever modern fibres)
And I the FL style in the winter I rode with my real modern Irvin flying jacket over the check shirt to keep toasty ! So I go the 1930s vibe in
Oh and thanks for reading my first post!

I keep thinking about one of these, or the ST with the fairing.

I love the lowrider S and will probably get another one
Being short of leg and arm ie a short arse I put 1 1/2 inch pullback risers on and all other mods were style or performance and I can honestly say it’s the best handling harly I have ridden by far. I could go around roundabouts peg down at speed with no worries - if it’s for you you’ll know instantly - not ridden an st but I’m told it’s pretty similar but with the bigger fairing. I was fine taking taking CUTO from uk to Switzerland and back a couple of times so unless need something more long distance full dress I recommend it and tbh I like the dyna/ stripped back look anyway. Good luck

The three Triumphs I owned the last 2 years. I sold the Thruxton TFC and Daytona Moto 2 as they both killed my lower back to ride. Tons of fun though, especially the Daytona. Sold my beloved Tiger last fall after a long solo trip due to a new baby in the house and no long journeys in the near future. I’ll definitely buy another Tiger when the time comes. Also considering a new Street Triple.. little better ergos than the Daytona..

Sadly the back thing caused me to give up triumphs and move to the Harley so I literally “feel for ya!” (Im too short to ride the tiger comfortably)

Damn there are some nice bikes in this thread!

What I cannot get my head around are the owners of multiple bikes.....I can only barely (actually I cant at all) justify the one bike with the limited amount of use it gets vs the cost of insurance and registration etc. I worked out a few years ago it effectively costs me about $250 per ride.
