i wish they had come up with a better name for the STREET triple, sounds too much like the SPEED triple, and is confusing, i.e. your headline says 08 speed triple when the article is about the street triple.

The bike already listed at #2 in BIKE magazines top 50 motorcycles of the year and it is not even on the street yet! I think the Brits are soooo tired of the 600 Hornet that they will revel in this bike. Looks to be a fun ride and all reviews are positive. Don't be too worried about the techno-slams like "it doesn't have radial mount brakes" or "suspension is not very tunable". That is for trackday and doesn't have to be part of making a fun street bike.

WOW, I didn't even notice that. My mind thought "Street" but the fingers typed "Speed". Force of habit, oldtimers disease, or out in the heat too much, who knows?
