I like the way the rear fender is bobed. Need to do something to the signal lights. Can't see if one can preload the front suspension. Needs a tach. Otherwise I really like it.

Nice looking machine. But how does one put oil in it?

Hate to have to pull the exhaust off to do an oil change.

My dad had some old issues (~1968-1970) of CycleWorld wich featured an advertisement of Triumphs motorcycle range. My favorite was the Scrambler, and here it is 2005 :
Perhaps I should sell my S3 and buy a new R6 for trackdays and a Scrambler for everyday use... (if I only had the dough, though)
I would like another two-tone color, I just don't know which.
Perhaps something like this:

: I like it. Longer travel suspension has got to be good for our crappy roads. It's got more class than pretty much all the rest of the adventure/dualsport segment.

Very Very Nice. For some reason I picture the scrambler of the 60's as having the pipes come up the opposite side. I could be wrong, it's been a long time. Still, very very nice.
