    Great review as always Mr Taym I rode the street triple and that was fast enough, it's all about self control lol just as soon as you sit one it seem to take over people it's in the blood.

    As you've so ably demonstrated TAYM, it's not the bike that's naughty or nice, but the rider. I can be naughty on my Himalayan and there's plenty of naughty riders on 125 scooters in London
    This looks very nice, I might have to have a go on one. I have a test ride lined up on a Street Triple first...

      If you live in a built up area don’t bother with the Speed , it’s a waste of a bike , I’ve got one and it’s an absolute masterpiece but it’s totally strangled in town, if you live in the countryside then you’ll absolutely love it 😍

    • @pcarts232
      @pcarts232 Рік тому +1

      I’ve had mine since last March and I swear to you I’ve never taken it above 7000 Rpm ! That’s how much power it has , which is good in one way, but not so good another what I mean to say is you can’t really enjoy the bike as much as you want to because you’ll just get caught speeding. It’s as simple as that if I had the choice again I would buy the street triple without a shadow of a doubt. 👍🏾

      Triumph do a 20-25mm lowering kit for Dave's of the world 🌎.
      Lowers rear by 20-25mm & just use the lowering setting on the forks & lower front 18mm at front.Will loose 20mm ground clearance though but if you got your heart set on one lower ground clearance is a small price to pay.

    I type unintelligent, but I don't want quick shifters, cruise control or electronic rider mods. I love my Concours as it has none of them. Basic is better in my mind. Less to go wrong, and if wrong decides to happen, it's my fault. I will take ABS for the Oohww poop 💩 times. I am human!

    For me the only thing that lets it down is the headlight unit. From the side it looks like an afterthought and doesn’t flow with the rest of the bike.

    An excellent commentary, which didn't do my head in. The RS has an angry wasp head and that and the tank design make it look very naughty. Then there is the sting in the tail. I can't possibly be naughty on my Royal Anvil, but I can at least try to sound naughty; possibly even naughtier sounding than the RS, in a different sort of way😁😁. Human nature is just about impossible to fathom, but certainly some car drivers are jealous of the freedom that they see in motorbike riders. There's nowt so queer as folk as they say somewhere in Pomgolia.. 👍👍. I am not sold on naughty boy bikes though .........

UA-camr "That Bloke on a motorbike" reports that 5 MASKED Theives attempted the theft of his 350 Classic from his workplace, only by action from Dave and his workmates prevented the theft, but some damage occurred, enough to require Dealer attention, though I don't know the extent until hear back form him, of all places this was in Yorkshire!
