The local dealer had one recently.  Looks nice and I'm sure is awesome to ride ~

I have always loved the way those triples sound.  Can't wait to hear one in person.

My buddy has a Street Triple with over $20k in mods. He loves it!

I followed one last night with an Arrows pipe on it, he spent most of the time on the rear wheel, I love the sound of the Ducati's but those Triples do sound awesome at full noise!  [thumbsup]

Is it just me, or is that rider all crossed up? + shouldn't his outside elbow be on the tank?

Yeah, his hand did look like it was ungloved.

I'd be surprised if it really was though. . .

Id trade my monster for that, though im a little dissapointed on the 96hp. :( the daytona 675 makes 110 at the wheel and its the same engine.

STR is tuned for midrange and torque. . .

You can still get in a ton of trouble on a 96hp engine. . .

;D

It's cool how it sounds pretty much exactly halfway between the way 2-cylinders and 4-cylinders sound... well, that should be a big DUH I suppose, but I still get a kick out of it. [cheeky]
