Ms. Stacy: NO she doesn’t look good on that bike. She looks great! It looks like it fits her perfect as far as size goes. Plus I’ve always like the street fighter look of the Street Triple! What is going to follow you home next?

She looks awesome, just can’t see her big grin (which I’m betting is under that visor).

I’ve always liked the new Triumphs, can’t wait to hear some ride reports on how she likes her triple.

@fasthair: After I said that they could pry my SV650 out of my cold, dead, fingers, the guys at the Triumph dealership said once I rode the Street Triple I’d be singing a different tune. Well, I’ve ridden it and it’s a great bike, but I still love my SV. :)

Maybe one day, after I’ve learned to squeeze every ounce out of the SV, I’ll move on to something else, but I really love middleweight naked standards. Who knows what the next big thing will be in the future!

@Bob: She says every time she sits on the bike she can’t help but smiling! I’ll definitely ask her to write up her opinions after she gets some seat time in.

I saw the Twitter post and thought you had traded the SV for a Triumph!

She looks GREAT on that bike! You know, if anything else happens to follow you home, let one of us know, OK. We wouldn’t want your garage to get jam-packed full! :-P

and p.s. it looks like there is too much dynamic sag in the front fork setup from here.
