Sweet. I'm a huge fan of those bikes. You might have a hard time keeping that front wheel down. |

An ex-Ducati salesman I know (he bleeds Ducati red)is now a service manager at a Ducati/Triumph dealer. He got one of those and absolutely loves it. If I get another bike, it's first on my list. |

There's something about a triple... my budget might allow me to find an old Yammie triple, chop or steampunk or whatever it, and fit a proper header. I had a buddy who had one, running with a Kerker, the sound would make your hair stand up. If I had the scratch, an ST model would be on the short list. |

I got a good deal, I got it for $4,000.00 cash. In these time still a good chunk of change but also a lot of bike for the buck. |

Same basic engine as my 1050 Sprint. Great power plant! It's very deceptive though because there's never a big jump in the power as revs rise. It just keeps adding more power in a very linear way, and before you know it you are really moving along. In a lightweight naked package, it's a hooligan bike! |
