Needs to be in black, and with round headlights...it'd be just about perfect.

....And the term "street-fighter" needs to be struck from bike lexicon forever. 'Tards.

Just got back from a quick blast on mine. A speed triple with more speed and a little more triple would be even more epic :P

Triumph is having a very strong revival at the moment and long may it continue (y)

Should put it right back in the mix with most of its direct competitors.
I guess lots of manufacturers will be updating their range of bikes now. Ready for Euro 5 next year.

It's isn't a power-heavy motorcycle so could do with some extra cubes.

This should definitely bring it back towards the competiton... S1000R for example
