So when I decided my new bike would be a cruiser, another sport riding friend was going the same route. He bought a big Honda and though I like it is it's not for me. Couldn't be happier with my SM.
Well he could not, as I have, stay away from sports. So he just took delivery of a 675. I never really think of many sport bikes as beautiful, just a few. But man that is one sweet sport. The reviews on this bike are incredible (I mostly avoid reading sport bike stuff these days). I can't wait to ride it, after he runs it in of course. He mostly bought it for track days, so he says. Though his wife says she will have it chained otherwise.
I think Triumph has really outdone everyone, again in my book.

I agree completely. A beautiful bike.


I'd buy some big chaincutters 'cause there's NO way that bike would be for 'track days' only!!

It certainly is not based on my opinion. I am totally impressed they beat all the big dollar japanese companies with that title. I'm sure they are very proud.
