Nope, mine is best ever.

Spokes????? How old is the rider?

Don't like the round headlight either.

And black is boring.

And there's no dirt.

That works for me. I like the look of it and the wheels suit it.

I've always said that if I was to own a S3 then I would look in to having a single light conversion.
The iconic double light does nothing for me, never has

I like the twin round lights.

I'm not a fan of the new weird looking things.

I know it's sacrilegious, but I have never, ever liked the front end of those bikes.

In fact, don't get the Triumph love at all. Meh.

You need to experience that big 1050 triple engine to get it.

I see the journos are out testing the latest version for the first time in Spain today.

The 1050 Speed Triple is a stonking piece of kit. Very useable power and a fantastic noise.

I've ridden a 1050 Speed Triple. It was ok, but I own a crossplane R1.
