So umm... yeah, badda bing, badda boom and next thing you know the FJR has a stable mate.

Nice bike! I've loved every Triumph that I've ridden, sure would like to add one to the stable. I see the gel seat is modeled after the old American Cavalry saddles with a groove down the center.

Sweet, what year is that? I've been thinking about either a Daytona or a Street Triple as a second bike. I love the Roulette Green S3, but I am not sure I want a naked bike yet.

It's an '07. Got it with 3,100 miles. Judging from about 2" of untouched rubber on the sides of th tires, I'd bet the bike never leaned over much at all.

 
Nice looking pair. Should fill in the spot for a quick run through the twisties. You either have a very understanding wife or you are single. Ride safe.

 
I've got a wonderful wife who understands that she married an incorrigible hooligan. Granted, something about mortages, children and responsibility have tempered that somewhat, but only some. The Daytona purchase was primarily to give me something to take back to the track.

 
TFJR - That is VERY, VERY, NICE!!! It's an awesome looking machine. You have my approval. :yahoo:

Enjoy the new bike.

A wise racer friend of mine told me to be careful as you, "don't bring your favorites to the track...." less you are willing to part ways with it at some point. He was so right...

Ride safe. :D

Sounds like good advice to me. It's the reality of track abuse that made me opt for a used one versus getting a brand new one. 3,100 on the odo, got me about 3k less on the '07 vs a brand new '08.

 
nice!!!!

Interesting garage walls that you have.
