Hello from UK!

[Skye UK]

Hello, I'm Skye, I'm 15 and my father has a Blue Haze Triumph Rocket 3 where I ride pillion.
I've been riding on the back of my Dads motorbikes for 10 years now (first one being a Vmax which he still has, well parts of it.. In the shed!)

I spend most of my free time with him and out on the bike when the weathers nice!
I am also heavily involved (committee member) with the Triumph Rocket 3 Owners Club UK.
We also ride a 1999 Triumph Thunderbird Sport and a 800 Triumph Tiger.

Speak to you all soon

Welcome Skye
WOW, the inner sanctum at the OC has got a lot younger than when I clashed with them years ago.

Fantastic that you decided to join us here, Skye. My son has been riding with me since he was about 6 and still loves it - he's 14 now. I use him as a sounding board for most of my mods. You and your Dad have great taste in bikes; I'd love to have a TBS and Tiger 800 in my garage too. Welcome from Downunder (we won't mention the cricket or the rugby, OK).

Well I like to know what's going on in the world

Thank you all for such a warm welcome

It's going to be years before I can ride a rocket due to the laws in UK now but I can have a trike at 17, so i've got my eye on Dads Vmax in the shed. I can see a trike project coming on but he doesn't know yet

Welcome Skye from Northern Michigan.

Glad you will be able to at least ride a trike at 17. When I can no longer keep my Rocket up on two wheels, I hope to trike her out.

We are a bit more lax in the States. I had a Honda 65 at 15, a 175 at 16, and a 66 650Triumph at 17. Had a Bonneville America at 50 and my Rocket Touring at 60. The Rocket is by far my favorite, although I would love to still have the 650.
