How did you find it from a long distance point of view, a naked tourer ?
a reasonable pillion bike ?

Not viable for a pillion with me on it. Have friends who do and she rates it.

With a bit more leg room I'd ride it to Burt - but that's about my knees more than the bike. Apart from that I'd happily do a long tour on it, but not 2-up. I personally prefer nekkid bikes - even for touring.

youre quite tall tho , so possibly a short 6 footer might cope.

I do prefer the last model headlights tho ;-)

The blue lights on top of the Tacho casing come on @ 4000rpm....for what reason?

Perfect camera mount there.

You must got the best job in the world, you get to ride all the latest bikes!

Damn!...I thought Triumph had introduced some sort of 'You Have Won A Prize' light alarm.

The black light.

They have. If you get the tacho to 6k with the front wheel on the ground you get to keep your licence.

Disco is dead.

What about the 'What's on' board at the RSA? - been a while since I've been to one.

Swapping from the Blackbird to the Street Triple, I did worry a bit about the lower levels of protection on tour but it's not really an issue - I love naked bikes now.
