2nd dibs

£13500-£14000
I heard

Thruxton R with full Ohlins is £12,400 with the Entry level bike at £11k....
£13-14k will be too high.... needs to be circa £12k


NEC today . Best bike there. Big like a proper bike . Fitted me at 6 foot 6 really nice ergonomics . Lovely looking and kept going back to it. Test riding one this week. You can fit a top box and it’s a proper usable retro . Beautiful in XE guise . Green and white for me . Loved it so may switch to a trumpet![]()

Lalalalalalalalaalalalalalalalaal I’m not listening...
Test ride you say? I was told March 2019.....
I’m giving it a go . Much bigger than the Bmw scrambler. Looks lovely
I feckin loved it ...... That and the new BMW e scoot with 100 mile range that will replace my t maxYep sat on one at the show yesterday - good looking bike and felt roomy.
Not convinced that it will tempt me off my R9T Scrambler now I have got it sorted but will have to have a play when Pidcocks have a demo in![]()

Buit for gullivers like me and Twiz it could be a real contender. The NEC was dominated by adventure bikes . That makes me feel like , I don’t know , a bit like I’m following the masses. Years Go when I bought my 1150GSA it was very unusual, and I kind of liked that . The new Triumph , ok its a retro scrambler but fits me like the R9T scrambler didn’t . Plus you can add useful stuff like a top box so I can use it every day . I had the early tigers / thunderbirds and loved them. All the recent triumphs have left me cold but I so loved the new 1200 . It really is a beautiful bike and you could feck off anywhere on it![]()
