    New Trophy Man Here!

    Been a Triumph nut for a long time.  First one I owned was an '06 girlie, best bike I've ever owned.  Then last year I picked up a '13 America for me and a '12 vstar tour for my wife for killer deals in upstate NY.  My wife hated the vstar because it didn't fit and loved my bonnie  :034:   Soooo I've been riding the vstar to work everyday and the bonnie every now and then because I love the vtwin.

    But....cruisers kill my lower back so I've been looking for a touring/sport touring rig to trade the vstar for.  My local Triumph dealer made me a hell of a deal on a new blue 2015 SE for $15.6 out the door.  I could not pass that up, especially after I test rode it and a new RT back to back.  After a very small amount of haggling, I got it with the top box for 16k out the door.... Will pick it up this Wed or Thurs....I am jones-ing!

    Anyone who test rides a Trophy and R1200RT back to back.... will always fall for the Trophy!

     :400: to the forum.  I hope Triumph doesn't come out with a new improved (however hard that could be) and offer me a test ride.  I don't think my bank account could stand it.

    I have lower back problems and so far find the Trophy allows me to ride 5 hours +, no problems (with short stops for fuel/coffee/leg stretches)
