XSR vs ZRS

[Mr. Dazzle]

For nine grand I'm definitely having a Street Triple R over any of those.



Not really competing with the Z of course, but I reckon it kinda is with the Yamaha. Even comes with a QS and blipper for weeksy!

Ridden Trickys RS, I'd take the XSR all day. The QS and blipper work well but it just didn't excite me.
When the weather breaks I'd like to try his again

Triumph's are a bit gay tho'.

I had one, but sold it before the bumming started.

ISTR you didn't get on with the size of it?

[Asian Boss]

Aren't they all dead wee and nesh?

Surely the answer is a Diavel.

Not for circa £10k.

[Mr. Dazzle]

Aren't they all dead wee and nesh?

Just like me!

Perfect fit.

Just like my cock!

Perfect fit.

Size was ok, physically smaller than mine but not in a bad way. It just felt a bit errrm shopping bike. But maybe that had a lot to do with it being virtually new and not mine. The clocks I hated lots.

Quite like what he's done with this... nothing too drastic, but looks good

I like that a lot. I think they do need a little bit of "customising" to finish them off. I think those lower bars would really work too.

[G.P]

Neither of them would make ne want to change my 1200 Monster. my Late 2015 sub 10k mile version cost a fiver under £7k. If I swap it for another naked it would probably be a newer 1200S or a Triumph speed twin.

Meh, you've done the monster thing, you'd deffo suit that speed twin!

Its such an epic engine though. With some touring coming up, I suppose a Multi is more likely.
I will get a test ride on a Speed twin once we are allowed out though.

We'll go over together, I'm sure I'll find something to try too

Still got the weird box on the frame

[Le_Fromage_Grande]

Lets mix this up a teeny bit.

So the RRP of a new council spec ZRS is £10,699

The XSR is £9,499.

How about this for £8,995?

Have you had your eyes gouged out with a rusty spoon and all sense removed, not only is it ugly, it's got a Chinese built Husqvarna engine, it'll shit itself big style

Perhaps it's my imagination,but,reading between the lines there,I get a slight impression this bike may not be right at the top of your list.

I'd rather shit in my hands and clap.
Are you sure you weren't bummed when you bought the Triumph?
