Triumph Thruxton "Transformer"

I have often heard that a Triumph Thruxton is only good for showing off on a sunny day in front of one's favourite bar. Rubbish! I find that it makes a pretty good bike for solo touring!

By the way, if you want to know where the parcel rack comes from, it's a home-made (not by me, I should add) item that used to be a bar stool in a previous life - I kid you not!
