Ok, to start, I LOVE my Speedmaster. And sometimes I think there's room in the garage to add a Street Triple. I think there are times when one would be better than the other and vice versa... but I can look at any STYLE of bike and find the beauty.

So I really don't get the whole "I hate (the other kind of bike) " mentality I see every now and then. Do you see it? Have you noticed? What the ******... It's one thing to see it on Youtube (the web's home for children posting nonsense)

But to see it on Triumph inspired sites:

is truly depressing.
