Hi cwminty and

to the Forums !
There is no question that the Trophy is a heavy bike, or tht you have come to the right place for research !
First of all I would recommend talking to your local Triumph delaler,
explain how long it is since you last rode, and what that was,
tell them of your concerns, and ask them for some advice ( or better stil practice ) on handling,
both in terms of pushing it around / manoevering in a garage etc, and the actual riding of it,
although you will find the bike is amazingly light and easy to handle once you're moving.
Dependng on how you get on with the Dealer, I'd also consider contacting your local
Triumph Owners Motorcycle Club ( TOMCC ) who will no doubt have some experienced riders with a wealth of experience and advice to pass on.
Then of course there are these Forums - Don't be surprised if a Trophy owner near you offers to make contact

Then all you have to do is book the Test Ride but make sure you have your finances in place first,
because you WILL want to buy it
