    I don't think so, I think only me & Explorer on here here them as you said..
    Maybe they are doing the same....
    I did not gell with it the same as Bry..hence why it's going...
    I love the styling and looks of the bike, I just don't get the big grin when ridding it like I have on other bikes....
    Not sure if that's because I don't ride as much now or if it's the bike.....

    dam you were quick.. may try and get a bit more then if you got loads of calls....
    I waiting for my log book to come back...
    The colour on the log book is white but I wanted it to be right and changed it to black... But it got lost so I've got to get a new one... just want I need.. also got to get a letter off Triumph for the DVLA so they will register it as black and NOT a change of colour...
    I mean the bike was Black when it was 1st registered.....

    I doubt it as all dealers will be getting them at the same time.. I think it's mid March from what my dealer said.. but they are not even aware yet.. They are planning a open day when I can ride the demo bike beginning of March..
    Deposit is down on mine so it will be in the 1st batch built and sent over...
    It's a refundable deposit so if I don't like it I can get my money back..... like that's gonna happen......:upyeah:

    I think I'll go for the White S 1000 R Sport with the Akrapovic can come March - the dealer rang me to say they are getting stock on the 14/15th March so a test ride is on the cards - then who knows? will the Speed or Blade go or will the BMW just add to the fold...live for today and enjoy every minute - we're not here for a long time we're here for a good time x :upyeah:

    Perhaps they tell you its red because they know that no fucker in their right mind would buy a green one? Just a thought.... x
