    Okay I have never been a fan of the two ugly lights, but that is one serious bike, I could live with one :D

    Agreed.
    I think all Triumphs look like total lash ups.

    I love the Speed triples, I had the T509 what a brilliant bike that was, I like ugly mean looking bikes, the Speed triple always hit the right button for me, except I aint paying 11K for anything

    It's mine :) don't worry I'm not getting rid of the blade, always wanted a speed ever since I had a Ducati monster, figured this limited edition would hold value and be more sort after than stock one. I know not many on here will like this, but I used to ride triumphs in the seventies and I've always been a big fan. :D

    I had a days holiday on Wednesday and spent 2 -3 glorious hours scratching about on a standard speed from my local dealer. I must say I had a great time! I'm not sure if I can resist buying another one as it was so much fun...I'd miss the blade but not the aches and flimsy plastics :eek:
