it is triumph's new street triple, it has the same motor as the daytona 675, i dont really like the stock exhaust but you can get that arrow 3 into 1 that looks sick. It is my new goal to buy this bike:eek:

It's only a 675, if you've got any experience on a street bike, get the speed triple and with that not only over 100hp also over 100 ftlbs of torque.

[Robey14]

it would be my first streetbike, And i think 107bph is enough horspower or more than i would need for my first street bike. Plus this one would have better handling becuase it has the same suspension and frame as the daytona 675 sportbike, i heard those speed triple's are kinda slugginsh in the handling department, but that is just what i heard

[Robey14]

oh and the street triple has 51ftlbs of tourque, and the speed triple only has 77ft lbs so its not anywhere close to 100ft lbs, and it has 131bph, and it weighs 40lbs more than the street triple, also the speed triple has a tubular frame when the street triple has a al. beam frame, now i dont really know what theat means, but i know that all of the jap bikes have al. beam frames(cbr,zx6,r6,gsxr)

thats an awesome bike, but if i were to get a street bike it would be either HD or Ducati.

I rode street for years on a full race bike with lights....my ony andvice...stick to the dirt, you will live longer

street bikes are great to ride , with mega power .

with all that power you have to use it [ imo ] or whats the point of having it .

ok .... now you are on the street with all that power , the police will hammer you if they see you crack the throttle . and lets not forget that the local roads are not race tracks .

or you could get a street cruiser .

or you can stick to the dirt where you can go as fast as you want , no police

and no cars to pull out on you .

well i want a bike so i can get into road racing becuase that is the reason why i ride mx(becuase, i wasnt old enough to get a street bke) It is my real passion i guess. So i want a bike that will be fun to ride on the street and track until i can aford to get a full race bike(maybe an 05 cbr600 or something like that)

S3 is not a race bike, it's a streetfighter. If you want to get into racing get an SV650, put the gixxer forks on it, practice at the track and race the 650 class. DO NOT RACE THE ROADS YOU WILL BURN YOUR LICENSE. Trust me, I'm talking from experience, that's why after 3 race level streetbikes burning up local pavement and a ruined moto insurance rate + thousands in ticket fees (not joking) - that's why I ride mx now.

Looks like triumph wants to play with Honda and Ducati...

I wasnt really planning to race on the roads, maybe go for a spirited ride every once in a while in the canyons but im not stupid. I wouldnt go out there balls to the wall on public roads, that would be putting me and others in danger. Plus i would really like to live past 20. So an sv650 would be better huh. How much do you think i could get a pair of gixer forks and

clip-ons for

[RUFF_RYDER]

(dont cause u will die)

[Robey14]

yeah i hate busa's, they are like the fattest worst handling sportbike ever, but they are great for their purpose(lagging fat people around and drag racing)
