I had a Street Twin six or seven years ago & the fact that it wasn't so obviously retro was what I most liked about (it compared to the Bonneville etc.), so this isn't for me.

Nicely done though if that's your thing.

Like that, not much I’d change, if being picky maybe the Monza type filler cap is not my cup of tea.

That's really fucking horrible, it looks like a bad readers special from 1974, it looks utterly shit.

Not for me,If I wanted an old Triumph twin I would spend the time & money on sorting out an original proper Triumph.
I much prefer the look of the standard Street Twin.
