    Beautiful machine, well screwed together, just felt the same powerwise as my 05. Not saying it was slow, just expecting more out of this generation of speedy. I've had 4 speedys in all.

    You sure mix 'em up. A V4 Tuono followed by a Victory? Enjoy.

    Fair enough, I almost pulled the trigger on one but they seem not quite there yet.

    Must be overdue for a completely redesigned 1400cc triple engine

    yes, the 1050 was a stunning engine when it arrived, I'm actually kicking myself for selling my 05, I had her for 8yrs with not 1 issue, we have a Street Triple RX as well so I still have a Trumpy to ride

    Mine is an 09. When I read the road test of the new model BIKE magazine reported an increase of 3HP IIRC and nobody is going to feel that.

    Very true, the 104 changes to the engine was more for Euro 4 than performance me thinks

    I've always wanted a Speed Triple. I've ridden a few in the p;ast and always wanted to add one to the stable. Perhaps I'll manage that this year.
