And replaced Julian the old pink speed triple with Riddick the new black speed triple.

He has special powers, including the ability to make everything go very blurry very quickly indeed. Mr. Green

I...........hate.............you!!!

That is the sex, would love to get my hands on one of these, wit arrow system Cool . Or a street triple.....

Why trade in so early? TBH i dont like the looks of the triples in the year of your old one. Not sure why as pretty simular to my 'Four.

Also, may i ask the price?

They gave me one as a courtesy bike. It's *so* much better than the 955i it's almost a cheek to call it the same thing. I just had to have one.

Can get them from about £6k upwards. With trade in and some persuading that one cost me three and a bit. Street Triple's definitely worth looking at, it's going to be priced very competatively and with so many interchangeable bits with the Daytona (and I hear you can remap the engine for Daytona power) there's plenty potential for adding/tweaking as you go along.


Yes, it has the ugliest rear end known to mankind, so on that basis I'd always decided I didn't like this version of the S3. Then I rode one and decided that what's behind me doesn't matter, as I rarely have to look at it. Maybe get cans at some point, but the standards do some awesome burbling when you roll off the throttle. Cool

I quite like the rear end now, use to not but makes it look more like a "hoon bike" with the rear like that IMO (once you have a new plate hanger)

Looks the sex, but you know green was the colour to go for....
