My Triumph Street Triple 675

[speeddemon]

After going to a Triumph dealer, i was interested in buying a Street Triple. Then 1 month later i went to look for a second hand one and test rode it. After the test ride i was 100% sure i wanted one. I had never ridden a road bike with such a fantastic engine, handling and brakes; all combined with a low weight and low seat height. I thought it over for 2 weeks but then i got the message that the bike was sold. So 2 days later i went looking for another one and i found another bike. This time a green one instead of that black one i test drove before. I bought it 2 weeks later and now i'm the pride owner of a Triumph Street Triple .



Nice bike isn't it?

Nice bike! I always liked the Speed Triple and went to the dealer with the intention of buying one but got a Hyper instead. Insurance for me on the S3 was double that of the Ducati! That and the deal made it hard to pass up.

Ditch the catalyst cans for Arrows, remap, and have fun! Do you still have to get the "R" model for the better fork?

Sweet looking "death machine"!

I love the Speed Triple and the Monster. 2 of the best looking bikes out there. I rode a sweet Monster last year, but I am not a street guy and it scared the crap out of me.

Thanks for the comments. In the future i will probably go for another exhaust system altough the sound stock is far from bad. The suspension is ok for me except when i'm riding two up the rear shock gets suppressed with more than 7 cm which makes a hard ride on the bumpy belgian roads. I will probably change the rear shock and put some thicker oil in the forks and that will probably sort out everything. But first i have to save some money...
