Gabbie on Grandad's Bike |
Currently I am riding a Triumph Trophy 3
(900cc Sport Tourer).
That is of course when I can get my granddaughter off it! I had been
planning to get a Bonneville but when I came across my Trophy I knew the
moment I saw it that was the right bike for me. This
bike suits my personality and riding style perfectly. I still want to
get a Bonnie, but now I want a classic one as a project bike. However
before I get a second bike, I will need to get a garage where I can work
on it. If I ever decide to sell this bike I will probably want a Sprint
or the new Tiger. However the Rocket III would be very tempting if triked and rigged as a
full tourer. Diana rides a Honda SH300i motor scooter. This is a very
modern machine complete with fuel injection, ABS and automatic
transmission. Prior to this she was riding a Piaggio Zip 50 which served
her well for many years of local commuting. The Honda has given her a
much further range and higher top speed. If I take things gently, she is
now able to keep up with me on longer rides.
This page has some links to motorcycle
websites I have found interesting or helpful. The Triumph site has been
included due to my own bias and allegiance to British made machines for
which I make no apologies.
