Re: [ST] All Triumph RAT ride today 10-3-05

I had a friend who had a 97(?) Daytona, one of the first ones,  who toured a great deal on it.  He had sometype of bar raiser and a Corbin seat on it.  He rode it about 30,000 miles in four years and sold it.  I rode it once and found it very comfortable.  The top end performance is notably better than the Sprint.  But for most street riding I find the Sprint to be at least its equal.  I had a VFR at the time and he very seldom had a significant performance advantage.

ive known guys who have toured but that was the slightly older one. The
current version doesnt appeal to me except in looks. When i sat on it it
didnt have the feel i get with the ST. Lovely sound though.
