While the new suspension is probably better than the old stuff, I really 
think Triumph blew it by not putting the USD forks and radial brakes from 
the Speed Triple on the bike as well as a fully-adjustable rear shock. It 
would have screamed no-compromises SPORT-tourer. I'd actually consider 
trading in my RS for one if they hadn't cheaped out on the suspension. 
Again. Oh well, my RS is handling much better thanks to Bryce's Penske 
shock. Now to settle the front down a bit and I think I'll be a happy 
camper.
