Congratulations on the new Bobber. Love the new Triumphs. I have a 2018 T120 and a 2018 Speedmaster.

Check out the Triumph Rat forum @ triumphrat.net. It's just like his one except everything Triumph.

Ride safe.

That is a sweet ride.

Hey that is totally cool. Is that a mono shock or something on the rear ?

Way back when (69) I had the single carb model (Trophy) that I actually turned into a chopper .

Yes, mono shock under the "tractor seat." It's a bit stiff; will be replacing it with an adjustable Fox shock, next week.

Yes, the gas tank is only 2.4 gallons. This would be an awful touring bike! : )

I've leaned it pretty far, haven't scraped a peg, yet, although my boots have scraped a couple of times.
