What's up everybody

Tell us a little about yourself and say hello to the gang. We would like to hear about who, what, and why you ride as well as how you found us.

Maybe we should have a club rule where you can't give anyone crap about what they ride for the first week.

That being said, don't pay attention to Fixxer, he wishes he had a Triumph.

This is just my first bike, I'll stick with something reliable for now. Maybe one day I'll step up to a Triumph

Yeah, you can rely on it to be exactly in the same spot in your garage as the last time you looked at it.

Triumphs aren't consistently reliable, sometimes they run without problems just for a change of pace.

Maybe it's not the bike...but the biker. I'm just saying...

Do find that your golf clubs aren't working like you think they should sometimes? See what I mean... :D

The thing is, my Kawasakis, Yamahas, and Suzukis have all been bulletproof. Only my Triumphs gave me consistent problems. They both had shit electrics.

All you have to do is rip out the weak ass British wires and replace them with good ole thicker copper wire with soldered connector ends.
