RE: [ST] New ST

["Big Riff" <big_riff@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sat on a new one at my dealer last week.  I like the seating position and 
the general look and feel of the bike.  It looks like Triumph listened to 
the end-users on just about everything except for the suspension upgrades 
that we wanted.  It has an Aprilia Futura feel to it from the cockpit - 
which is not a bad thing at all.  As a few listers already mentioned, the 
locking storage in the fairing is a welcome addition and the gauge package 
looks really good.  The turnn signal integration into the mirrors is cool, 
and of course the dredded rubber covers over the mirror stalks are gone.  
Those stalks have undergone a major redesign and look to be much simpler and 
sturdier than the previous ones.  All but two of what my dealer has coming 
in for '05 have already been sold.  I'm so happy with my '01 right now with 
only 20k miles on it, I'm thinking an upgrade won't be in the cards for me 
until '06 at the earliest, more likely '07.   But you never know....
