Hi guys! Greetings from the cornfields of Central Iowa in the U.S. Been riding various stuff, but finally jumped into the Triumph pool with a new T100 I bought last weekend. Takes me back to the early 70's when I first started riding. Just plain fell in love with the retro look and quality of the bike. It also seems far more fit and finish than some of the used T100's I also looked at. Will be a great bike for riding in the rural agricultural areas of my home area. Taking it to a bike meet will be interesting for sure!

Welcome to the forum and you really could not go wrong with that bike, it sure is a nice one.

Glad to be in the club! Thanks guys. When I saw that orange and white T100 sitting at the dealer, it was love at first sight, Already contemplating a few mods and accessories. Had the dealer put on a back rest, mainly for when giving grandchildren rides to help them feel more secure. Going to get a Joe Rocket Old School leather jacket to go along with the bike. When I roll up, folks will think they stepped into a time machine and are in the 60’s!

I thought I would get a couple of pics up on the site of my new T100. But right now I am so PO'd at the dealer that I am just not in the mood for it. The bike is great. Needs a bath after my weekend forays. But the dealer has tarnished what could have been a good experience with a new bike, on several levels. I spent the afternoon on the phone with them and verbalizing my distain for how they screwed up in several areas. Will keep the bike, but may be looking elsewhere if I ever need to have a wrench turned on it. They broke the trust.

--- might I ask --- or just leave it as they SUCK?
