Good looking. Will probably never be in the U.S.

It's been on sale here for a year or so. I was quite keen to take a look at it at last years NEC show, but, truthfully, was a little underwhelmed. If they'd kept the belt drive from the "S" and "ST" models (along with the switchgear) I'd have been seriously tempted.

As it is the 675cc Triumph Street Triple kicks it's arse and costs less, which is reflected in the sales of the two models.

Nice bike if one simply "must" have a BMW though..

Si.
