@suburbanryder Would make a nice third bike IMO...

Good review, Matt. Let us know if you take a spin on Sprint ST, I really like the look of those.

[matth1138]

@motochron Sure thing man, I'll do a review for everything I test out this summer...

Gotta love Triumph, happy to see an american with some real distinction ;D

No I like americans, srsly. Please don't kill me.

@Birdman1277 The windshield is quite a bit more useful than whats on the street triple. ;)

The gear indicator isn't a necessity, I just found myself looking for it a few times. A convenience, nothing more. The fuel gauge is pretty nice though, it gives a "miles to empty" countdown.

@ToastToGo yeah...

@L0udP1p35 Yeah it was weird, I was tooling down the highway, enjoying the heck out the ride, looked down at the speedo and realized I was doing the paltry speed limit. Usually, I'd be tucked in at the limit plus some (well, quite a bit) and not seeing any scenery.

@britex3186 Yeah, the multistrada has me very interested. Too bad the nearest one is going to be about a 3 hour ride away. Or maybe that's a good thing?
