Newbie from Lancs UK

Post by lancashirert »

Hi all,

Just put a deposit down on a late 2017 RT LE. Pick it up in a week or when I get chance.

Current whip is a Street 675R which isn’t getting much use as it’s a bit loud for the residential street… First bike was a tourer (Deauville, smaller but not much lighter). Nearly bought an RT after that, but fell for the Triumph Triples, but come back full circle to suitcase living.

Looking forward to mithering you all at some point in the coming months.

Cheers! Ride safe.

Congratulations on your new purchase, non of us are getting any younger, but we will get older riding more conservatively on an RT ;)
