Also although I haven't sat on one yet I suspect it will be too low. I got my '09 SE after trying many bikes & itis the perfect height for me. The Street Triple as too low.

Lighter weight may well feel good & the overall look is still pretty funky. X :party: :uk:
How are you liking your SE?

I agree with you about the new headlights and that Triumph should be proud of their retro look. The retro look is one very special item Triumph should be exploiting as much as possible (like the heritage look of Harley-Davidson).

Maybe Triumph will make a longer and taller version of the Street Triple... I doubt it, but it would be nice, Buell did it with one of their lines.
