This is a very strange time for a bike release. I wonder why they didn't have it ready for the NEC bike show?

I suspect we'll see those being introduced to the rest of the Triumph range.

They couldn't get D6 to wash it in time. He took it to Morrison jet wash just the other day.

LOL.



I would imagine there was a good amount released at NEC and Milan (Bobber, scrambler) and wanted the Street to have it's own lime light and isn't the London show around that time?

Those clocks look ace. I want them. Wonder if you can watch Star wars on them whilst riding. :D

Fair enough I suppose but those other bikes aren't competing in the same market at the Street (IMO)

I'm not going to the London bike show to get a look. I'll wait for Triumph Birmingham to get a demo in.

I was meant to go a few days ago with mates, but baby Flynn decided I would enjoy being home more and looking after him until 3am.

I'll probably not get chance until I break up now. I can't go in the week due to work and home commitments, which leaves the weekends only.

Oh that. I've seen that in various conditions for ages. I see them all from early concepts up to finished article over periods of years during development. Its cool, but also frustrating if it is something you are interested in for buying yourself.

That one's old. They built it a long time ago, somewhere far, far away (probably China).

The prototypes were built in the states. You can easily tell, as the tolerances on engineered parts are huge, the build quality awful and it required a huge powersource to provide even minimal performance.

Then the Chinese copied and improved the design for a fraction of the price. By removing any safety features.
