Oh , and yes i got the Tuono...lol

I'm liking the v=twin t-shirt. A nice selection of bikes there.

(:-})

so you like your Triumphs and your VTR's........good man

Nice pics mate! :-)

so how do you choose which bike to use?

I have 4 bikes, but with the exception of the Storm, the other 3 are very specific in what they do, so if it is not trials [GasGas Trials bike], Enduro/Green laneing [GasGas Enduro bike] or short journey into town [1976 KH125], then the Storm has to do all the rest ...... simple decision. but with 3 or 4 good road bikes to choose from I would never know which one to take

Ive tried all the r1's, gixers etc.....no soul in my opinion..

had twins for 10 years now, sold up to try triples..which i also love, but missed the twin boom, hence ive bought the storm....

Im a very happy chappy, triples and twins have so much charcter

you're a lucky man. nice to have so much choice. love the t-shirt too

i am lucky i guess , but like i tell the wife i dont drink or smoke, and i like to dabble with buying and selling the odd bike to make some pocket money...

the t-shirt is from red torpedo, bought it at a bike show where Carl Fogarty was signing them. I asked Carl not to sign mine though as i preferred it as it was....His face was an absolute picture if a little embaressed...lol

I tell you one thing that SP2 would love to spit you off if you give it the gobfull you give the Storm. Those things are lovely but evil in the wrong hands.

When i bought the SP, it was like learning to ride all over again. I nearly sold it after 3 weeks but persevered and eventually grew to love it.
Its easily the best bike i ever owned or rode
