    What bike are you planning to get next and will it be another Triumph. For me the Speed Triple is currently doing everything I hoped it would and may be tempted by a new model Speedy depending what they do to it.

    One thing is for sure lighter bikes are more fun and will not be buying a supertanker on two wheels.

    Think my next project will be a bobber, then might look at swapping the Daytona for a Triple next year.

    I am seriously thinking Rocket 3. I know its a big bastard, and Im only little, but it just looks the part:upyeah:

    It will cost about Kr 200000, for a 2005, thats just around 20 thou, depending on the exchange rate...

    I need a job that pays more!!!!

    Well in my absence I've been busy....
    First done speeding on my pocket Rocket, pending court case and ban!! FFS
    Second, took out five Harley's for a test ride in an effort to slow the pace down..
    Took a 48, a fat bob, Night Rod Special and a break out...
    Loved the night rod.....
    Decided too much cleany cleany shine shine, so went Pidcocks and walked away a happy bunny....
    Bye bye Speed Triple (Sad face :mad:)
    Hello Tiger 800Xc very very happy face :biggrin:

    Harley's wow there's slowing the pace and slowing the pace! The guys at Pidcocks are decent people and was happy to swop my ballistic Ducati for the slightly slower Speed with them.
    Guess lots of us occasionally open our bikes up and sorry to hear your of impending court case.
    Think I may get myself a test ride on the Tiger 800 and the new Tiger 1050 sport, love the Speed Triple but just find it a little cramped on some of the longer trips Ive done. Already took Pidcocks 1200 Explorer out and just found it too big and heavy.

    Rich, I went to try the explorer but didn't want to after riding the 800, my mate has the road version and you do well to get passed him other than on a straight or long fast bend, not that I speed of course... Not at all... Not ever...
    Totally recommend a test ride bud, I just wasn't keen on the looks of the 1050 tiger... But each to there own....
    The fun is all below a ton on an adventure...
