He brought it home today.  I had a chance to ride it and I must say that it is a very nice bike.  The engine is so smooth compared to my 07 S2R1K.  The turning radius felt OH so much better.  Anyone else had a chance to ride one?  I'm sure we'll be putting a lot of miles on our bikes together. 

Hooks'Em!

Nice bike that S3.....It was down to that bike and the S2R, when I was looking, but I went the Monster route and have been very happy.  I really liked the old split 5 spoke wheels as compared to the new ones.  Other than that, Triumph really nailed it w/ the new Triple.

Later

Not a Speed Triple, but my pastor just got a Street Triple.  I must say I'm glad I went with the 696, the Street sounds weak with the stock mufflers.  Sounds like it's wheezing.  Good ol' L-twins have it beat by a long shot.
