    And another newbie from Cornwall

    Hello all.  Picking up my new to me 2014 Trophy on wednesday then a 250 mile ride home......should be fun!  I have had 2 Trophies b4, the old 900 and 1200, which I sold 13 years ago....was a heavy uncomfortable bike! But since then owned an FJR which I did enjoy, a cb550/4 and Triumph Thunderer, which I am about to sell.

     :400: to the forum.  The Trophy SE isn't what I'd call a lightweight, but it is similar to the FJR.  Without the luggage it handles and brakes MUCH better,  but a long trip takes good advantage of the storage.
