    While looking for a naked roadster I tried a lot of bikes - BMW 1250R (big and heavy), R NineT (seriously uncomfortable), Tuono (untamed!), Monster (meh), Diavel ($$$) and a 2019 Speed Triple RS. The Triple was a standout in the way it handled - so balanced it was the 'just right' bike and thousands less than some of the others - it was a no brainer! Now waiting on my white 2019 RS to arrive from California.
    Looking forward to hearing from my fellow owners!

    Hello and welcome! I agree with your comments on the other rides you tried. Been down that road myself.
    That Speed 3 is ridiculously awesome. Congrats and keep the shiny side up
