LoL, I can't afford the bike to begin with, nevermind keeping it fed.

I'm just curious because it's such a large motor.

Then we saw one of these in the parking lot of a local grocery store yesterday and we're HOOKED.
Wait until you sit on one, pick it up off the sidestand, and realize it's light as a feather coming off the stand. Don't know how Triumph does it.... must have a hella low center of gravity. It's just beautifully balanced. :)
