    Back down to the dealers today as the Tiger has it's 18000 mile service.
    New Speedmaster in the showroom.

    Here's my loan bike, a BLACK Street Triple 765.

    20180220_102105-01-1024x768.jpeg Good fun once I'd got used to the gear lever position and the fact that when you look ahead you can't actually see any bike! Also, why is the side stand stuck behind the footpeg so you can't instinctively reach it? :D

    Ha ha, yes riding the 765 is like sitting on one of those arcade games you get with a set of bars & nothing in front. It looks like the 'S' Steve as hasn't got the TFT dash, what do you think of it? Agree with you on the side stand though, I have got used to it now but it is hard to get at. Which dealer 3 X or Destination Triumph?

    Destination Triumph - the bloke next to me got the one with the TFT dash!
    I do like it - feels light (compared to the Tiger) and handles really well. Riding position is surprisingly comfortable but you are still quite upright I suppose. Good fun! :cool::cool:

    My mate had a Tiger, he asked for a go on my RS when we were out on a ride last October, he said much the same about the handling & light feeling, he went to Destination Triumph on the way home and bought a 765RS! Should be on bloody commission!
