It's a Triumph.

It's a triumph when it starts and a miracle if it keeps going....

(Sorry, old prejudice bubbling up) 🙂

That's when you know it's about to seize - no oil puddle, or stops rattling.

(More old prejudice) 🙂

Like the Speed Triple it's captured perfectly what makes a streetfighter- ie, looks like a ****ing dog's breakfast.

Not so keen on Triumph styling as a rule, but I [i]love[/i] that. Gorgeous.

"Well done. You made a Ducati Streetfighter for the poor."

heh.

Well i think it looks awful. I wouldnt get out of bed on my day off to go out on that thing. It needs to at least look nice or have something going for it.No thats a lie because the handling or the handling along with the engine could be amazing.. but if it has looks about it that make me frown and question it,then theres really no point in me looking any further!

Thought it has more of a 'Buell' look about it.

Not sure if I like it or not - maybe matt black.

Not impressed to be honest.

Looks like a home made street fighter thing with a fairing.

I own a Ducati and to compare that with either a factory Triumph or Ducati is a bit insulting to their designers!

If the nose cone half fairing thingy was removed and a pair of old style speed triple headlamps fitted along with a nice leovince gp pro side exit exhaust.Ahhh.
