Similar to the 'pink' Triumph (was it a Street Triple?) - apparently that was Nuclear Red or something, definitely NOT pink (according to the guy at the TT who was offended when I said I liked the pink Triumph outside the bar we were at!! LOL)

Yup, Nuclear Red (pink) Street Triple. I've mentioned it before, but Bubble (she was on previous forum incarnations) bought a Triumph and wanted that colour but it was finished the previous year...so she had a new one repainted in it IIRC (I don't think it was done at the factory). It was most definitely PINK. :D

I reckon Nuclear Red (pink) suits the Speed Triple really well.

My Brother has one of them - he swapped his Cooper S for an Electric one when the lease deal ended.

He's hardly driven it, someone smashed into it the day after he got it and it's still being fixed :lol:

That must win some sort of prize for the worst ratio of physical size to how much stuff you can actually fit in/on it.
