Title: New Member from Texas
Post by: ChrisPy on May 10, 2011, 06:20:04 PM
Hey there, my name is Chris and I'm a transplanted Brit, now resident in Grapevine in the DFW metroplex.  I'm a member and current President of our local classic and vintage bike club, the NTNOA, dedicated to the use, preservation and restoration of all British and European marques but particualrly Nortons - hence the name North Texas Norton Owners Association.

I proffer a Guinness [drink] and/or a beverage [coffee] to you, the reader.

I have three Triumphs, an 07 Tiger 1050 ABS, a 95 Thunderbird and a 79 Bonneville (the last year for import into the USA).  On the basis that I eat pizza and spaghetti bolognese as well as roast beef with all the trimmings, I have also recently purchased a low miles 2008 S4RS TriColore.   It comes with a Sargent seat, Termignoni exhaust system, a shedload of c-f bits, and some very cool Pazzo levers.  Frankly, I can't believe my luck nor the generosity of my long-suffering and gorgeous wife, Monica, for allowing me to get the bike. It is absolutely the dog's whatsits, and I keep walking into the garage to check it out (it's dark and drizzling outside so not riding).

One interesting snippet, the bike was the grand prize on the Price is Right. Hope to meet you on the road.
