Talking New Ride

Or as my husband said "Santa got a new 'sleigh'" We sold his SV650 a few months back and had been on the look out for a good used Street Triple R. Unfortunately, all the ones we found were over priced or too far away. On a whim the week of Christmas, I told him to call some of the dealerships to see what they were selling the new ones for since it was year end. D&D Cycles in Pensacola ended up having a 2010 in stock that we were able to get for just a few hundred more than the used ones, so we decided to go that route. We loaded up for a quick trip (4 hours one way) to pick up the bike and head back. He's a little upset that our weather hasn't been cooperating so he hasn't gotten to really enjoy the new bike yet, but I guess that's what happens when you buy a bike during the off season, ha! Anyway, here's his 2010 Street Triple R...although I may end up stealing it if we don't lower my GSX-R soon, lol!





Riding it around the driveway since it was too cold to do much else:



I decided to try it out since he liked it so much (excuse the fact that I look like I just crawled out of bed...I'd been cleaning house all day):

Nice colors! I think you'll like it even more when riding on pavement!

I made a trip across Deals Gap on a friends STR this summer.
Best bike I've ever ridden.

Caffi wants one. She can sit on it and almost flatfoot both feet at once. WITHOUT lowering.

Nice purchase. That's a great bike; if I needed to get a new bike and had to stick to a reasonable budget, that would be on my short list.
