          @Graeme:

          The Indian Scout is stock, as far as I know. It's a good looking bike, but rather small, so @Jordonf9 might need to look elsewhere if he's as lanky as @Sam and I are. 🙂

          Just seen the Ashley Watson Eversholt jacket over at Silodrome.

          It's a waxed canvas jacket with a Dyneema lining to provide abrasion resistance; a waterproof and breathable drop liner to keep you dry; and a set of D3O armour. It's also available in navy. Could be good for riding around town.

          We've got these in stock. www.foundrymotorcycleshop.co.uk

                        @harley dave that old school Electra Glide is lovely, but I can understand why you're nervous about the brakes.

                        I picked up a set of Rizoma Leggera indicators for the Thruxton when I was in the UK. They're tiny, and the rear units also have brake and rear light functions. Plus they have a CE rating, which means they're street legal. Useful when there are over enthusiastic law enforcement officials in these parts. 🙂

                                I had a Springer,and while it didn't have drum brakes,it was an adventure every time you came to a stop. If you spit on the rear brake pedal it would lock up. Got in th habit of dragging my feet to slow the bike down. Like Fred Flintstone. Great bikes. What years are they?

                                            Triumph announced the Bonneville Speedmaster earlier today.

                                            It's basically a Bobber, with an upgraded rear subframe to allow it to carry luggage or a pillion, and a 12 litre fuel tank, up from 9 litres. Cruise control has been added as standard. There are something like 130 accessories in Triumph's parts catalogue for it already!

                                            I think that it's a more practical take on the Bobber, although it loses some of that bike's charm. I don't like the metalwork around the pillion seat, as it looks clumsy, and the chrome makes it more apparent.
