None of the photos I have seen of this bike in this colour do it justice. Hopefully I can try and get some nice shots at some point. Not today though... nipped out for a quick run to, well run it in. caught in rain, muddy puddles all over the place.... A clean bike did not last long.
No doubt I will add to this thread in due course, most likely once the 1st service is out of the way. I can the give a true report on how I think it feels and rides.
For now, I love the looks, the sound, it feels light and agile. I forgot how much engine braking you get on a triple compared to an inline 4.
The dash is simple to use, easy to see. The switches are all easy to use, even with thick gloves. I have already moved the clutch lever as I like mine below my hand if you know what I mean, not right in front, makes my hand hurt after a while. So that's that sorted.
The bikes standard bars, levers, all feel great, wont see the need to bling those up, full up and down shifter, smooth box. I did get the heated grips fitted, they seem to be working very well, tiny switch don't even know its there, and the status shows up on the dash.
I will obviously whip off the tail unit and get something less sticky outie. I will get a tank pad, I forgot about that, and the last thing I want to do is scuff up that with a zip. Other than that no need to any extra bling (for now lol)
So for now, 60 something miles in, I am smiling
Thanks to Bull Dog Triumph in Wokingham for an excellent service as always.
