I am considering buying a Triumph Sprint RS 955 (or maybe an ST) but also really like the VFR 800 (I can't decide, can anyone help?), I would appriciate some feed back on on anyones past experiances, good and bad, on things like: reliability, fuel economy, handling, torque etc, If you know anything about these bikes your responce would be appriciated.
Cheers,
Bob

The Triumph has much more torque and sounds better with a race can. I think the VFR looks better. (Except that red/silver paint job, what were they thinking? Trying to make it look pre-crashed?) I'd watch second hand values too, now that Honda has slashed new VFR prices.
