How is it going with your Triumph Trident? I did eventually get the Speed Twin (the 1200) soon after our conversation. In fact, I started a YouTube Channel that features it. -- Scjessey (talk) 15:20, 30 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Its been pretty great actually! Though wondering if I wouldn't mind getting a cruiser sister to go with it. It is hard to have just one sometimes. I will have to check out your channel more, always loved the look of the Speed Twins. =) PackMecEng (talk) 01:06, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
