Keep your eyes peeled. They are coming out with some cool new bikes in the near future

I would like to feel how the triples pull. They sound fantastic.

if you want to really see how they pull, make sure you get on a speed triple. it has the most power of the three bikes with the 1050 engine. or get on the tiger which has the least power, this way if you are impressed with that power, you'd be blown away by the speed triple.

Haha, I'm only thinking about buying my 2nd 600.... let not get too far ahead of myself!!!

oh for sure...the speed triple is only pumping out 131hp. and the daytona 675 is pumping out 128. go figure

every time i talk Triumph NA about technical issues i keep asking them when are they going to bump up the power in the speed triple.

i don't know for sure about the liter daytona. but i do know that they are working on a 1300cc triple for the new trophy that is coming out...its going be something like the kawi concourse. they also will be unveiling the new tiger at the end of this year or early next year. going to compete with the GS800. its going to be a complete enduro touring bike from what i've heard and about 3Gs less then the beemer. oh yeah, and they have redesigned the sprint st, so i can't wait to see that too.
