Actually, other than the forward foot peg location on the Speedies and that everything isn't blacked out on it like on the Yamaha, I think the Speedy actually DOES fit into this much too abbreviated and so-called "comparison test" here.

Could not the present generation of Speedies be defined as "Bobberize Americas", what with their cut down fenders?

And, haven't we seen many a "comparison test" done in the past between this Triumph model and the Sportsters?

(...I think that Brit was over-emphasizing the chrome on the Triumph, if you ask me)


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
