New RT owner - first post

Post by mitcher16 »

Hi all,
I would like to say Hi and am very excited to be part of the 'club' as I just purchased a new 2015 RT San Marino Blue/Grey from a dealer. I have always been a Triumph fan and still am however I wanted a bike that was more comfortable touring around as well as some exceptional performance to go with that comfort. I was looking at the Triumph Trophy and managed to get a sweet deal from a dealer but I just couldn't stop thinking about the RT. It has everything I want and am super excited to get it tomorrow or the next day. After reading these posts and watching many reviews I am confident I made the right decision! I took my Triumph to California in June from Calgary, Alberta and since then I am hooked on touring the countryside on 2 wheels. The RT will be the perfect companion I am sure.
Below is a link of the video I made of my trip if interested.

Anyways, looking forward to contributing to this forum and to keep learning more from all of you.
Cheers.

Welcome.  Falconmick is right, stops us Brits sending you to see dealers in Yorkshire. But everybody has twigged your over the pond and some.  That sounds like a giant tour on a T100.

You do realize you have started a addiction, it's called RT syndrome, it's a costly one!!
The inmates on this forum will be a great help in feeding your new problem
