I had the non R version when they first came out in 2007. Brilliant fun to ride, although the basic suspension wasnt that great, but you'll have no problems with the 'R'. They have made the bike feel a bit bigger size wise now with the updated version. The seat doesnt slope forwards as much so your knackers wont clonk on the tank.
The induction roar when you open it up is a sound track to behold.
I only sold mine as I wanted a bike with a fairing for touring. If I had 2 bikes, that would be the other.
I think the ditching the high level twin cans for the underslung is a major improvement in the looks and prefer the non round lights.
There is a good forum www.street-triple.co.uk
Go on there and say you like the new looks, hate the old. They really like that :lol
