I know I am not alone
Come share whatever roadbike news, ownership and pictures if you like
The first bike I ever rode was a DT400 enduro
That thing scared the crab out of me, then an AR50 bit my first bike as for in owner was a Z750. Think it was a 1982.
Rode it for a very long time, and it was followed by a line of Suz Gs and later even GSXR. I owned a 1979 Honda super four…quite a number of bikes which would have been rather cool today.
My adv bikes came years after my skydiving accident after I learned to walk on my own again and it was a the Triumphs that stole my heart. XC 1200 and 800 but also a road bike which I dearly loved; 1050 Sprint.
After a nasty divorce I lost not only my bikes but a great deal of….well almost everything.
Back on a KLR and later the NC750x and seven years with that NC and still like that bike because it’s cheap and reliable ….but its a corolla
So what brings me to this thread:
So many WD’s often put up for sale the most stunning roadbikes you can think of, I have seen it all on here and I know I am not the only only one that love both road and adv but my first love still is road bikes.
I really want to buy something different now, but obviously keep the ‘Corolla’
Something that’s light yet exciting, and nothing other than the Triumph Tiger 660 (full on road bike) caught my attention. Pok what a beauty…
That engine sound is just so amazing, a trip is just such a lekker engine.
I know I would not buy just because of my work and maybe also because my back is acting up a bit but allow me to dream away
What do you guys thing of this new 660 Triumph engine, and would it not be nice if they put that in a midsize adv bike as well?
I still think the Rocket is the coolest cruiser of them all
