    Voices in my head, guide me!

    I have an opportunity to get into a Speed Triple for the right money. But I am really happy with my Street Triple. I am only considering it cos its a mates, I know the bike, it has all the farkles I want bar one, and I know the history.

    I was going to buy a Speed Triple when I bought my Street. But I test rode it and thought that my lack of discipline would mean my licence would last quarter of an hour.

    Its brighr red too.

    GAH.

    Year?

    They look stunning in the bright red.

    And the Street will sell for a good price as they are popular.

    The good stuff you already know.

    Possible disadvantages? Weight, seat height, wheelies.......

    If you can tolerate the excessive shrill cam whine of a Hinckley triple that no performance muffler can overpower, then go ahead and buy one.

    Is your mate upgrading? If so, flag it I reckon.

    Geez Louise...you don't seriously expect us to help you such a personal issue??

    It would be akin to me asking fellow KBrs if I should bang the blonde or the brunette cougar on my night out? Most would just say grab the one with the big tits wouldn't they...

    They are probably happier without overpriced motorcycles.
