As much as I like the Buell, I can't vote against the S3.  The Triple in black, with a Zard or those all black ones , is just such a beauty.

I love both, have lusted after either since I knew they existed.  But for my money, I've wanted a triple since I heard a Daytona 955i about 5 years ago.

If I wanted to ride blindingly fast in a straight line and play hooligan, then the Triumph.  However, since I prefer curvy roads and the tighter the better, my vote goes for the Firebolt!

No, it's not because my friend Rogue has one.   Twofinger  

I just don't think that there is another bike that can match its overall handling in the corners.
