    Hi folks!

    Just purchased my first Triumph and its a Speed Triple RS in white.

    I've had a Honda CB600F 2011 for about 3 years and wanted something bigger, quicker and newer.
    Test rode the S1000R, MT09, MT10, GSX1000 and CB1000R and nothing could live up to the feel and quality of the Speed triple. Ive was so impressed with the handeling and the power delivery, i bought one on the spot.
    Coming from the Honda, this feels like a big step up and i cant wait for it to arrive! :) Dealers says late June.

    Cheers
    Henrik

    Yes I am sure it is, I have the Street RS at the moment and love it, tried a 2017 Speed R when I went for first service last year, after the test & then getting back on mine I was happy I had right bike for me, we'll see how I feel after riding the new Speed!

    Welcome to the Asylum you should fit right in. To keep the inmates happy we will need photos.
    Sorry to tell you this but White is not a colour.

    Welcome to the forum! I hope you can handle your waiting period better than I would. Just like in Rocky Horror Picture Show - we'll "watch you shiver with antici.....pation" :)

    Welcome Henrik.

    I've not ridden the new Speed myself, but working in a dealership I know plenty who have. Be prepared for some face ache because you'll be grinning from ear to ear pretty much constantly.
