    Hello all , I thought it was about time I joined the forum after owning numerous street and speed triples .I just purchased the new speed S and after doing 1100 miles in the last few weeks must say its awesome . I mostly use the bike for lively blasts around the excellent roads we are lucky to have nearby and several trackdays at Knockhill. I sold my last speed triple to buy a fireblade which was very good but after 3 months missed the speed hence back yet again .I look forward to sharing and receiving info on the bike and can hopefully offer some of my own experiences . I have read with interest some of the tyre reviews and can add I have used M7RR and the new Diablo rosso 3 ( both feel very similar to each other )and have found them very good . I love the supercorsas but doubt they will see 1500 mls ( only in the dry mind ) .

    Hi welcome to the forum,Glad you are having fun with your new bike,i changed from the supercorsas to the angel gt i'm really impressed with them and after about 2.5k on them there is still loads of tread left, it looks as if i will easily get 5k from them :):)

    Hello , I did indeed find it lacking , I had always wanted one , it was fast and handled very well but kind of lacked any character if you know what I mean . I even had more fun on track on my last speed .
