Awaiting New Speed Triple S

Lovely! What colour and accessories have you gone for?

 

Sounds like you will be very happy with that little lot!

Maybe get the oil guard from evotech as that gets a blasting being below the rad. I can also reccomend the triumph rubber tank guard.

 

HI meldy,welcome to the forum,the speed triple are greatmaybe see you at the Hungry Highlander some time

 

Sounds great...Lovin' mine

I'm sure you'll be pleased of the swap with all that low down torque

 

Hopefully pickup my 17 r on Saturday too,

Enjoy mate,coming off a 16 s1000r looking for a bit of grunt n character

 

Hi Meldy, sounds great ! Congratulations, you are going to love every second on it

 

Congrats on the new bike, pix ASAP

 

Nice! Can I ask why you changed from the S1000r, this was one bike I considered before going for the Triumph, looks not quite finished in my eyes, mad engine though!

 

Gaja it did everything mate,but it bored me!! It just screeched everywhere,I did 2 weeks in Spain and it was spot on,apart from the heat of the engine,I wanted something with a bit more character to be honest,build quality on bmw is not as good as others n it drinks coolant ,

 

It's all looking good mate!
Even the nails shining
Now that's attention to detail!

 

Very nice Meldy ! That nail is just nasty, would suck if they can't fix it. I had one very similar on a blade some years back, decided to replace it rather. I didn't like the thought of a mushroom plug in my rear !

 

I find it ridiculous that the new triple comes with supercorsa's I picked mine up in January, just a nightmare in damp wet conditions, after 1000 miles I had worn them out and gone onto M7RR's great tyre.

 

Picked mine up yesterday base n there decent tyres n look the part but just looking at them makes me nervous ref damp/wet conditions ,goin to Spain in July n reckon I'll be putting new tyres on,heard good reports on the M7rr's,do you recommend them?

 

over the years I have been through the top line brand tyre choices on various bikes, but the M7RR have been my favorite tyre of all time. good grip from cold, feel really stable and not bad wear rate, for what they give you in performance. The supercorsa are the only tyre that I have destroyed the front at the same speed as the rear, awesome grip in the dry throw in a damp patch it can give you a real "moment" as I found out on my fireblade.

 

Bike looks great, congratulations, nice upgrades too!
