And Suzuki with the SV line.  And a few others that escape me at the
moment.

A partially faired S3 sounds very good to me!

Are there no aftermarket fairing options for the Speed Triple? If there 
are, it may have seemed a bit silly to Triumph (and me) to produce a
whole 
extra bike to fit such a sub-sub niche market called "people who want a 
naked bike with just a little bit of plastic." 

They might be passing up a few $ in profits by not making their own add
on 
bikini fairing for the S3 like Aprilia did with their Falco kits.
