  2. Never ridden the Street but a few years ago when i rode the Speed i really enjoyed it. In fact at the time it was very nearly a purchase but i ended up getting the Tuono V4 i think

    Has the tech been updated on them nowadays with things like quick shifters and all that jazz?
     
  3. I do like the street triple, get a pipe on it and a filter and listen to it howl

  4. The air box howls already.

    Does have a q/s but the gearbox is so slick, even when brand new that it barely needs one.

    Has a slipper clutch and Ohlins rear with Showa BP forks.

    The TFT dash is probably the best in the market.

    It’s a sportsbike without the backache.
     
  5. Had mine about a year now, goes well with my monster 796 as they feel totally different .

  6. Let's be honest, it's the perfect road bike. Had the previous model and thoroughly enjoyed it until it met a hedge.
    PCP deals on them are ridic as well.

  7. Have you seen the TFT dash on the new S1000RR
     
  8. Has anyone?

    A tFT dash with no working bike ain't much use. :D

  9. I’m sure it rides like a dream........however it’s got looks that only a mother (and a blind one at that) could love.

  11. Lovely bike, I test rode one and my mate has one, definitely the best option for me if I were looking to get off the sportsbikes. I do think the rear shock needs a little set up though as it is pretty 'harsh' even for an Ohlins, but its a minor criticism as the bike overall is stunning.

    A tip, my mate had hillside do a map on his, genuine 20hp all through the lower-mid range, and really turned it in to what it should be. I personally think it's been mapped as standard to keep it out the territory of the Speed Triple and away from a potential Daytona 765.

  12. I've ridden one with the Daytona Body kit at Silverstone and it was like rubbing Nutella into Kim Kardashian.

  13. So you haven't seen the 'Hilltop'/Treetop facebook pages? They appear to be a fraud.
     
  14. Nice bike. Time to try something different for me though. I think i am done with sportsbikes on the road now.
     
  15. Well... so this Is the thing... I know a bit out EEPROM stuff and never really bought this whole (we put it in the space the OEM's don't use so it's undetectable).. However they did a before and after and seemed to furnish him with a print out showing a big gain, so as evidence goes I can't really argue... I suspect that perhaps they cheat the O2 sensor or they have some setting they change on the Dyno maybe. I haven't ridden the actually mapped bike but he raves about it.
     
  16. The Hilltop maps are a whole different thread...pretty scandalous if it’s all proven by treetop

  17. Cheers mate. Quite a few people buying the Triumph now that I’ve seen. Did you ride any other nakeds (bikes that is)? Be interesting to see how it compares the the Tuono V4
     
  18. I didn't try the Tuono. Me and Aprilia don't get on.

    And in any case i am trying to move away from bikes with high power figures. Had a few run ins with plod and the gendarmes this year and it made my mind up to go for something a bit less insane.

    I tried the Monsters but find them very bland, other than the 797.
     
  19. Yeah the Tuono can be a bit lairy
     
  20. I’d have thought the 797 was the most bland, given its position in the line up?
