Triumph Street Triple.
My SV650 was boring to ride and I really didn't like the riding position all that much. So I bought a Street Triple.
Love the bike, so much nicer to ride than my SV650S.
Only downside was the reg/rec went after 50 miles but the dealer is sorting that out for me sometime this week.

Keep your receipt, it will go again! The Triumph reg/recs are fucking useless. Best thing I did to my trumpet was upgrade to a cool running MOSFET device - meant I could go away on long trips knowing I will make it back.
Best colour, nice bike! |

Lovely looking bike. Really like the colour. And the belly pan and radiator cowl break up the black frame/engine area nicely.
Only thing don't like is the giant exhaust that makes it sound like a sowing machine! Don't know what options there are (apart from the obvious Arrow) but I think anything would look and sound better. ____________________ Suzuki SV650S '04 (09/08-02/11), Triumph Tiger 1050 '07 (02/11 - current).

Nice, like it in red. Enjoy, I'm sure you will. Like the single seat cowl, spoke to my local dealer yesterday about one for mine, tidies up the rear end  ____________________ Mod 2 passed 26/10/2011

I think we need a Street Triple sub forum.
Nice wheels though. ____________________ My Flickr |

Oh no - this post has made me want one even more - and just after I had decided to wait!!
Loving your speed triple
Passed my test at the end of last summer & have a SV650.
Went into the Triumph shop in Jan and a new street triple was the first thing that caught my eye!
New shape headlights, imperial purple... wow wow I loved it!
But really should get some experience first i think as I havent been out much and I still need to learn to corner at normal speed rather than slowing right down!
Still I now know what my next bike will be....  ____________________ Just follow the rainbow |

My dad did the same awhile ago, gave the sv to me and got a street triple.
He's recently traded it in for a Triumph though.
Both nice bikes.  ____________________ Currently Riding: Dt125 and now also an SV650 @33bhp |
