Triumphrat

Fastbrit

Thought I had better intoduce myself to all and sundry.
Been riding the new Triumphs since 1993.
Had a 1993 Red Daytona 1200 for 13 years before falling in love with the 675.
The love affair fell apart when I had to move to the US last year and thought as I am getting old and grey that I should get a more comfortable bike and got the ST. Which I love as well.
But the love of the 675 was still there and the Track was calling so I just had to get another one.
So I am now the proud owner of two Hinkley Triumphs.
(The 675 needs a paint job for the Race Fairing any ideas would be welcome)

Welcome to the forum Fastbrit, the Red/White you've got looks ok but I agree with Cafe' the Union Jack would suit your monicker.

Ride on !

Thanks for the welcome guys.
Yes I have thought about a Union Jack Logo, just got to work out the right design and Art was never one of my strong subjects.
When the paint job is finished I will post up the results

Welcome Fast,

2 is the right number of bikes if you can't have 3 or 4 . . . or 5 . . . or 6 . . . or

OK, just a picky when it comes to garage walls but mebbe a bit more important when it comes to expensive paint jobs - there's a right way and a wrong way with the Union Flag (Union Jacks only go on ships or summat); the flag on the wall is the 'wrong way round'!

....for the utmost in correct dimensions &c. - it's all in the white bits)
