There are few things in life that give me that "Salma-Hayek-wrapped-in-a-white-python" feeling.

This is one:

On the prowl for a manufacturer still supported aye? :whistle:

If you visit Auckland, you even have Triple X Moto to look after the MV. :2thumbsup

That bike has never pushed my buttons aesthetically.
Much prefer a Speed Triple.

All the exposed plumbing, wiring, and other "gubbinses" is a bit much, I guess. OTOH, I like the engineering details on the Italian bikes better than the Triumphs, and some of the alloy work and detail on Triumphs looks a bit cheap compared to similar Japanese or Italian bikes.

I don't see it that way on the similarly priced italians. Overall Tri finish is now better - on the testers I've had lately anyways.

You know my theory of these types of bikes? They are enhanced by what and how much you take off them - not add on to. The MV is too 'complete' or maybe correct is a better word.

I want more ragged edge from a streeter. Dorky twin headlights eg.

or lessness maybe.
