KiwiRider review !

Good write-up of the Street Triple in the KiwiRider magazine for December issue. A more fuller including stunting test is in the January issue to come.

Some quotes:

"We've sung the triple's song verse by verse. Suitable for round town work, free revving spirit, one wheel or two."

"The 675 thrives on revs, it has a real zip to the engine and it delivers power in the same linear fashion as the Daytona 675 - from which it more closely derives."

"The 6-speed close ratio box is precise and neutral is easy to find - rolling or stationary."

"The demo unit was also fitted with an additional 'screen on the fly screen', belly pan, seat cowl, and Union Jack logos. It just looks the business, and it goes as well as it looks."

"It's ideal for big city work and a blast through the 'environs'."

"It stunts (next issue) it's economical, has good range and is a whole lot of badaasss fun, in a Streety sort of way."

"nice in white, mean in green or Blaaaack. Funnily enough - I'd buy a black one."
