Hi all, I have made the plunge and purchased a "05"! speed triple in White.

Haven't had much of a chance to play with her yet but the ride in to work this morning was stonking!!

My only niggle, and I'm sure one that will fade very quickly is the slightly awkward handlebar position (I have just come from a speed four), it almost feels llike inverted clip ons.

Up the Triple!!!

It was a Toss up (almost literally) between a yeller and a white one, the yeller was older but had bits with it, cowl and the like or the white with less miles but no extras. I am happy with my choice. :-D

Johnny5, please translate "stonking" into English. Is that good or bad? kit:

Stonking - This weird word means huge. You might say "what a stonking great burger" if you were in an American burger joint.

From - Brit slang
