Two friends of mine in Chch are currently arranging a Striple test ride down there with the Triumph dealer. They're a husband and wife recently arrived from the UK and are looking at buying two! They were IAM instructors in the UK and looking at taking up the same role over here. Good luck! Geoff
Sorry Geoff, just read your review/blog, you have answered that question and many others. Subject to a ride l will buy one , l think its a suitable progression from the Gladius. Much appreciated Cheers Jim
Geoff, that 300 k you mentioned, is that to empty tank or fuel light on? Jim G
Thanks Geoff, l agree, its not so much the economy but how far between stops, Christchurch to Greymouth for example is 240 ks, its better if you don't have to stop. Cheers Jim G
There won't be much difference between the ordinary ST and the R version. What will affect it is how it's run in and more importantly how you ride it. I can guarantee 260 km per tank of reasonably fast riding and got nearly 300km in economy mode in the middle of the night on the 1000 mi;les in 24 hour ride. You'll find my full evaluation here: http://geoffjames.blogspot.co.nz/201...revisited.html. As a parting shot, you don't buy a Street Triple for economy! Cheers, Geoff
