Slow day on the board.  I'm bored with obsessing over every nuance of the rides on my short list so I need to lengthen the list.  If you can, describe your Speed Triple in one word (liberal use on hyphens permitted).  

I really must have a triple of some form in my stable at some point and the S3 seems the most likely suspect.  I'm just really having a tough time with the bugs eyes and instrument cluster.

I love the S3.  It isn't for everybody- people either seem to hate the looks or love them.  I think the bug-eyed headlights are very distinctive and cool.

Got to ride a lightly used '06 today.  I was really hoping (but not expecting) a ride would leave me cold - ya just another bike, no big deal.  No chance.  I didn't get to wind it up much but 6K RPM was enough to crown a new most favorite motor.  I didn't think an inline could run so smooth or easy.  

Balance is great.  Handling from what I could tell was at least good enough for my riding.  Ergos seemed to be pretty much perfect - relaxed sport.  Definitely scores  Bigsmile Bigsmile Bigsmile Bigsmile Bigsmile Bigsmile Bigsmile Bigsmile Bigsmile

Is it enough for me to seriously consider exercising some financial irresponsibility?  A good night sleep will tell.  So is that my one word, irresponsible?
