PACIFIC BLUE!!!! WHAT THE HECK is triumph thinking!? You cant remove the most popular selling blue, CASPIAN blue from the lineup. GRR, I'm very put upon at the moment.

Windshield seems to be a little bit higher. No big deal!

Nothing startling! how can you say that? they dropped the silver and the black and CASPIAN blue the best blue EVER!

It's a sad day for caspian blue lovers.

Ok, will go with the Caspian Blue loss. But then again if you already have a Caspian Blue one (thats the fast one) it might increase in value!

RichardC, are you sure about this. The weight of '08 Sprint is exacly the same as '07 sprint. If they change for a steal thank the weight should be higher. If they don't reduce weight otherwise....

I do not se a change in the lights? Nice pictures I have done some of them I like the windshield, might even get that for my long trips. At leats Triumpg is not going as long as the Honda line (VFR)before style changes. I would just address the seat on and off issue.
