    saw these pics this morning... love the red subframe. The badassedness is strong with this one.


    Triumph's got some killer things coming in 2011... like the new Speed Triple.

    if it wasn't for the ergo's, i'd have one of the 675 SE's. I love the bike and the brand, just not the ergos
    '95 Suziki GSXF 600 (Katana) (sold)
    '10 BMW S1000RR (aka. Black Betty) Thunder Grey (Totaled)
    '11 BMW S1000RR (aka Bumblebee) Shine Yellow

    If you love something, set it free. If it comes back to you, you probably high sided.

    That's how I felt when I rode one... I love the bike, just not for me.

    I feel like they are getting some inspiration from some of the italian bikes, no? Either way, it's a really nice looking bike. I'd throw a leg over her.

    I wonder if it's real Ohlins (ala 1098R) or bs branding (ala 1098S)...

    Hmm... They sent out mailings shortly after I got mine saying they had some interesting changes across almost all of their lines for '11. How exciting!!

    On a sidenote... they switched from Nissin to Brembo's eh? Verrrry interesting...

    Ohhh... and having just read the article, I wonder if they are ceasing the special editions each year and are just going to stick with a 675 and 675R?

    I'm sure it's the "OEM" spec Ohlins, not the real thing.
    Nice upgrades but doesn't represent a true "R" spec bike.

    Re: 2011 675R

    still no revamp...? this design is 6 years old and still doesn't have a slipper clutch...the upgrades are nice, but this thing still needs to be worked over quite a bit.

    and as for the S3...please stop messing with a good thing Hinckley

    Agreed on the 675. It still looks great, but just adding a few things that come stock on other bikes would go a long way too.

    As for the Speed Triple, I think the new one looks NICE!!!

    So which way do you want it?

    The 675 is still a potent weapon on and off the track... many would argue it's a good thing the way it is.

    The S3 hasn't had a revamp in as many years and it's not supposed to change?

    I always thought it was a good-lookin' bike. I'd like to see it in the Union Jack paint scheme.
