Triumph Sprint ST's are in budget. And that 1050 engine is a peach. ____________________ Current - '94 VFR750FR, '00 VFR800FI Previous - '10 Street Triple R, '92 MZ ETZ301, '05 TTR250, NSR125R, KMX125, "Honda" Win (chinese copy of an old Honda design with a C90 engine)

Fair enough. I haven't tried a 955, but one mate has a 1050 Speed Triple and another a Sprint GT (very similar to the ST), and it really is a stonking engine in either bike. Just a massive slab of torque at any revs. You can pull off on the GT without bothering to use the throttle, just feed the clutch in and off it goes, just idling along at walking pace.
But I can understand, earlier 955 bikes used to lunch their sprag clutches and so on, and if you've been put off you've been put off. ____________________ Current - '94 VFR750FR, '00 VFR800FI Previous - '10 Street Triple R, '92 MZ ETZ301, '05 TTR250, NSR125R, KMX125, "Honda" Win (chinese copy of an old Honda design with a C90 engine)
