Hey folks, I have just put a deposit down on a Street Triple 765 R (low ride height version). I took a demo down at Destination Triumph in West Sussex and fell in love.... I didn't mean to buy it, it was an accident! I've had many bikes throughout my biking life from sports to hyper nakeds and even tried dirt bikes for a bit. I currently have a Moto Guzzi V7 which is very customised: and a KTM 390 Duke, which is mainly a commuter for me but is also a lot of fun: I also have a Ducati Sport Classic Biposto, but that is gonna be going soon to pay for the Street Triple: The demo I took on the 765 really blew my mind, the low ride height is an utter game changer for me!
I've munched some serious miles on the 390, taken the Moto Guzzi on a trackday, I do like to do things my own way lol The ST765 will open up so much more to me though, hopefully will hit Europe with it next year, def gonna see a few trackdays on it and also a trip up to Scotland too
welcome to the forum and enjoy... interesting V7 you have there,my better half has a V7 classic very much un-customised,showed her your pic........traumatised is not the word ha ha!!
I have the 765RS and I am very happy with it, I have a trip to Spain planned for the end of June along with 13 like minded mates so should be fun! My track days are over following an accident (enforced rigorously by my missus!). Like the video you did of your test ride, might even bump into you at the Whiteways Cafe one Sunday as we often end up there. Enjoy the new bike when it arrives, Cheers, Billy
Welcome HD. We've all those accidents mate. Easily done. Why not pop along to our annual picnic and show us yours. 12th - 15th July in Wales. https://www.thetriumphforum.com/threads/grand-meet-up-2018-wales.12452/
I hope you enjoy Spain, should def have the weather on your side in June! Soz about the trackdays, I broke my back and pelvis on my first trackday... it was still one of the most exciting days of my life, and I got good value out of the day (was the last lap of the last session) Hope you have no permanent injuries from your off mate? Haha, I have had quite a few "accidental" purchases over the years! I'm not working those dates so will have a think if it is doable or not!
