Test rode a Triumph Speed Triple today. Wow! That bike has power *and*
torque and handles like a dream too! Can I get one? Huh? Can I? Can I?

In the end, everyone ALWAYS wants a Triple.

They have a Triumph dealership near where I have my Honda serviced.  I
stopped in one day.

I never rode one, but I think the Speed Triple is nicely done aesthetically.
It was very pretty.  The one thing that stuck out to me, besides the naked
styling, was how they used chromed bolts to attach black parts ... it was
pretty cool looking.

I haven't rode a sportbike since I had my Katana.  Not my style.  I hate the
leaned-over posture.  And the deer are naturally attracted to me somehow.

The Speed Triple does not have a leaned over riding position.

Nor is everything not a cruiser a "sportbike."
