Hi everyone, ordered my Speed Triple 1200RS today and should be with me early in the new year. Waiting for the flyscreen and tail tidy to arrive at the dealership before they deliver it. If I’m honest I really wanted the Ducati Streetfighter V4S, but after test riding the 1200RS I was overwhelmed by how good it was and think it is better value for money.
Bikes like SFV4S and M1000R+Sport, imho you either just have crazy deep pockets and just want one 'cuz you can, or you really really see something in one that you are willing to work extra hard for (perfectly fine!). It's not like the Speed Triple is cheap, but gosh those other bikes are next level pricing.
I hope so. Like I say, I was very impressed with the bike when I took one out for a test ride. Hoping I don’t have any gremlins like many others seem to have encountered.
I’m the other end. Born in Carlisle, went to school in Wigton. I’m up in Cumbria in June for a few days in June to explore the North York’s Moors.
A short video of my new bike from Lings Triumph. Brilliant service. Never had anything like this before when buying a new bike. https://video.citnow.com/vtG1yZ8rShG
HI and welcome, Gavin! Congrats on that new Speed Triple. Please share some photos with us when it arrives.
Like you wouldn’t believe. Getting very excited now and hoping we have an early spring so I can get out on it.
