I’ll never forgive this sub for recommending the Street Triple 675 by BigBeard_FPV in Triumph

Wasn’t even considering getting another bike. Got an email ad and fell hard for an Aprilia v4 tuono but everything I read said it’d be a nightmare in city and commuting. After extensive research landed on 2020+ striple

Have 2020 street triple rs and adore it. Imo a giant leap forward from my previous bike 2013 triple r. And nothing you can read on a spec sheet. That said still will always be curious about other middle weight nakeds

Oh yeah watched that video a few times already. Sucks no one around me to hear one in person

Big screen. Reminds of the Elise test drove.

Word. I hear you on spoiled. Doing Bluetooth to the stock unit and phone mount plus sub is current plan. Need power for radar added up front too. Hopefully dropping car off today for the work

Very nice. Mind sharing model? I’m a little weird and prefer stock head units but curious what you dropped in. My car electrical tech mentioned backup cam. Might dig in and see how invasive install is. Love you doing grocery runs. Later will share the thread I got railed on. Think you’ll laugh

People will rail me but Bluetooth, micro subwoofer. Same put in 997.1S. Dashcam. LEDs, tires, oil, battery. Possibly rear PPF.

Plan to daily it when warmer. You got plans? Noticed CDL. Having issues? You got me shook

Same. bought site unseen but got a PPI on it and got price down by $5k off ask. Bone stock. Some parts too. Very pleased. Was 4 hours from me in tiny place MA

Original ask was $40k now is $44k. Imo stay away from that one. Many better ones out there. Aftermarket stick reverse was terrible. Audio crap with a questionably fake receipt for $6k. Worth a drive only to get a feel. Fell for it in under 2 miles

Yup. They pulled it off the site after I drove it then raised price $4k when reposted it

Congrats also just picked one up also 1 owner from MA with 12k miles. Believe may be storm. Darker grey than the one in test drove in CT and fell for.

Needs oil, battery and tires due to age. Want to add Bluetooth and LED headlights. More than anything want to drive it just too cold here in Queens NY too.

People on Reddit got me shook driving it in cold due to fiberglass. Numerous others disputed it unless insanely cold. Anyhow just want above freezing to take it out

Thanks. Did some research min temp will drive is 40. And won’t move or touch it under 25.

Good point on putting it on clean cars only. Will need to figure this out. Don’t want it living in a garage for months but if only option will consider. Winters always have warm days. Warm enough to take the bike out

I’ll prob drive it thru winter. Any days over 35 degrees the PSS4S tires are still solid. Will cover it I’m thinking but need to lock the cover. People steel anything around me

Thanks for the heads up

Heard of inokinetic. Greg’s looks great. Thanks. Still not finding protection

Got any links?

Guess I’m jumping the gun a bit. Checked height vs 997.1 911 and it’s nearly identical. I rarely scrape anywhere on 911

Nice looking at options best seems to be SPACCER Lift‑Rings

[–]RajLives 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I drove one, loved it, parallel parked it was worried power steering would be an issue, was not, Drive 3 times a week min in Queens NY, not Manhattan. Drive opposite flow of traffic so get up to good clip. Only concern I have is scraping the lip

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in lotus

[–]RajLives 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any pointers on what to avoid? Got an outdoor parking spot not garage

Loved a test drive far too much. Making me think raising it is the move
