[@FredWilbury]

Thank you .... I didn’t learn to ride till was 60 ..... now 70 and waiting to collect my speed twin next week 😎..... regards Fred .... spot on with your reasoning 👌

[@billivey3426]

I feel the same about riding a motorcycle.I have to ride.And since I...went home to Triumph motorcycles,my riding life is complete.Triumph motorcycles are,to me,the best in the world.

[@justdad53]

To be honest your video was much better than Triumphs efforts. Great explanation of why people ride and how motorcycles make you feel.

[@socalmotobrea]

Thanks Jerry! We're glad you enjoyed watching.

[@OzzieTrev]

great story mate I just turned 57 and got my R open licence and bought a 2017 Thruxton R love it, I ride it in the mountains of Australia

[@apacherider7110]

Summed up beautifully

[@mattg4934]

Great description of what many of us bikers feel about riding in general. And having a TTR as well, it's a beautiful beast of a machine that is great to look at and leaves you grinning the whole ride.

For summarize, perfect words. Thanks a lot. N.B. : Mark, please, what is the reference of your mirrors, I search the same for my Thrust' black Matt 1200 . Thanks. Have good long and nice ride. Denis

[@poit444]

Hey Denis, those are CRG Lane Splitter Mirrors, perfect on the 1200 Thruxton! Take care.

[@denisdeprad9942]

Hi Mark, Thanks a lot for answer and détails .please do You have just install the CRG in place of the Triumph mirrors and conserv the fixation system original and bar ends finishers Triumph ?

[@poit444]

That is correct, just swap them out.

Hi Mark, thanks a lot à new time for your precious help ! I'm going to find a dealer for delivery in France. Tale care. Denis

[@toby621]

great video mate well spoken 👍👍👍

[@daveallen8824]

Hang in there; over 50 years riding and the thrill is still there. Even at 72, nothing like rolling on the throttle out of a curve...

[@CHIBA280CRV]

Amen !

[@npthaiduong]

Thanks for a nice video. I myself got the standard Thruxton 1200 in white color and love it. I am thinking about getting the fender elimination before the riding season starts here in Minnesota. Would you recommend it?

[@socalmotobrea]

MN tends to have more weather and dirt on the road then here in SoCal so as long as you are OK with a rooster tail every now and then, I do recommend one. They really clean up the back end. -Kyle

[@roland_mtb_303]

1:09 Does anybody happen to know about these mirrors? What brand are they and do they fit the stock clip-ons? They look amazing!

[@FunWithAJ]

Crg lane splitters

[@wachuko]

Very nice.

[@socalmotobrea]

Thank you Jaime!

[@tonygraham2684]

So true 👊

[@looseparts]

Thank you for telling my story. I rode a lot in the 60s and now I'm in my 60s and I've been riding again for about 7,8 years. This Thruxton R is my 5th Triumph in that short time, but this one... this one is the posters I had on the bedroom wall way back then. This one has so much thrust. Hits the ton like a sportsbike but from deep, way down. Different. Looks like a shiny relic, but with Ohlins, Showa, ECU, ABS, TC and all the modern stuff. Spent some time looking at it in the garage last night and we're about to have 10 days of rain here in Oregon. But the rain starts tomorrow. Today I'm taking it out for a long one. Oregon. Coast Range. 2016 Triumph Thruxton R. Excellently produced video - now I'm a subscriber : -)

[@socalmotobrea]

Thank you for watching. We hope you enjoyed your last ride before the rain spell and, more importantly, we're glad you could relate to Mark's story! Comments like yours keep us going; thanks again!

[@danilocapellan1316]

Nice motorcycle.

[@vladimirosdakoutros9150]

How did you managed to keep the standard bar risers with the racer kit?

[@RorySeanWainer]

Yep

[@hirakd2800]

We ride to redeem ourselves

[@aks992]

Which exhaust are you using?

[@socalmotobrea]

The exhaust here is stock. Thanks for watching!

[@jerryx2000]

Dude gtfo all the bla bla and then those cheap ass Aliexpress 10$ mirrors. @ 02:16 you almost died.

[@poit444]

Behave Jayden you maniac, those are CRG mirrors. Stay positive and be safe!

[@jerryx2000]
