2008 Triumph Urban Sports Review

I came across this review on the 2008 Speed Triple, the Sprint ST, and the Tiger. A decent write-up and video.

2008 Triumph Urban Sports Review

I am thinking of getting myself the new Speed Triple... still deciding though... hmmm.

P.S. Any Canadians in this forum?

Three outstanding bikes, iconic in their appeal. IMHO Triumph has done a better job of making bikes people want than any other manufacturer.

Agreed, but KTM & Ducati are close behind. Triumphs are priced a bit better than the other two though.

My local dealer says he is not expecting to get any 08 S3s this year. Can that be right? Are they really that hard to get?

While anything is possible it could well be a ploy to make the existing stock more attractive to any prospective buyers.

Hmm, could be the dealer is an idiot & didn't order any of one of the best selling Triumphs ( although I doubt his rep would stand for that ) or a liar ( see intfit's post ).

Ask which one he is, an idiot or a liar...
