I sat on a Speed Triple in Fowlers earlier this year ... one with the nice custom paint job. Ergos felt good, I made all the usual brrrmm-brrrmmm noises and wondered if I might be tempted. Climbed off, walked away to do some more tyre-kicking and it suddenly clicked ... the Triumph's ergos felt right because they're identical to how I've got my Fazer set up with rearsets, narrower bars and so on. 
If I ever get another bike, it will have to be something completely different because I just can't see anything out there which fits the universal bike genre any better still than a Gen 1 Fazer.
Enjoy the Speedy, Jacko, but I won't be surprised to find you back on a Fazer in a couple of years.
