I'm joining because I've been riding since the 80's, but since 06 have exclusively ridden Triumph MCs. My 2006 Bonnie was a Thruxton - black checkered. Really liked it but started jonesing for a more upright riding position. Last year I was lucky enough to find a guy who wanted a Thruxton, and had a 2017 T100 Black, so so we made a trade (yes I paid a bit on top) but everyone's happy! I love the bike, particularly the additional low end it delivers. Next up, better exhaust notes!
