I went ahead and got naked again.
The Daytona 675 is gone, here some pics of latest bike.
Promise I'll keep it more than a month. ;)
Triumph Speed Triple, S3/1050

looks like a REALLY ugly monster.
So what spurred the new purchase?
Wh-Wh-whaaaaat? How many bikes have you had in a month?
Maybe we need a 707 bike ticker! [cheeky]
just bite the bullet and get a turbo busa....
???
696: 80 hp. First bike. Had for __ weeks. Crashed before MSF taken.
675: 104 HP Sold within a month.
S3 1050: 129 HP The new steed.
Are my facts correct here?
Man, I want your disposable income. I thought I was bad w/ how many cars I went through, but I give, you win. That's like three bikes in two months? You da man.
Later
p.s. I do like the S3 though. Tough looking thug bike. [thumbsup]

Please be careful, kiddo.
Wasn't I just harping on you last night that the 675 was too much bike? I guess you do the opposite of what we tell you, so yeah....go get a Turbo 'Busa ;D
707s Next bike ;D

Not quite-the 675 was a Special edition version-so 120 HP if I recall. I don't see how one could even get used to a bike in that amount of time-just manage to break it in and sell it?

Special edition 675 is just a color scheme nothing performance related.

Either way, published numbers show 120hp+

Thanks, the 675 is just to high for me and the clipons is killing me.
I got what I'm looking for with the S3. So far so good, ride position is better.
I just have to find the right fit for me.
It's hard for a short guy like me.
I have to get a bike I'm comfortable to ride, coz I'm old.
Thanks Guys
regards to All,
707 is on his way
