I couldn't resist any longer so I went and bought myself a little brother for the Street Triple.

Jaysus, the complete engines are worth almost as much as the entire bike itself

How are you getting on with it?

It's as slow as you'd expect it to be but it's so much fun to ride. I don't think I'd have it as my only bike but as a fun second bike it's perfect.
As for size I'm 6ft tall and it fits me fine and the mirrors work well too which was a surprise to me

Sounds exactly as expected, I'll be getting a demo ride as soon as summer turns up

The only downside I'd say is that it's a bit vibey but that's to be expected with a single cylinder engine.

Saw a grom yesterday with an extended swing arm on it and cruiser style plate carrier over the back tyre. Was weird
