 Steven,

I always say if youre happy with youre current ST stick with it. The only reason I have a 05 ST is because my 99ST met an untimely demise when a wayward puppy ran in front of me and I chose the front brake instead of the throttle. With the benefit of hind sight, I should have kept the bike and repaired it myself as the damage was all cosmetic but extensive as it fell on the right side. My knee still hurts.

The 05+ ST still carrys on as a great motorcycle, but in my humble opinion it just lacks a certain character that the previous series has. My 99 ST is still the best bike for its time I've had so far.

Brett.

Triumph really took a backward step on this one and they are stubbornly?

persisting with it. The previous series factory luggage could fit a full 
face helmet in each box. Packing for a trip, even two up, I found I 
always had enough carrying capacity. Some people like the new luggage, 
but considering the boxes are huge but hold bugger all they are a waste 
of precious space.?

The best option I have found is GIVI with SW Motech brackets.?
?

CHeers,?

That's my impression too.  If, and it's a big if right now, if I ever go 
to the new gen ST I'll be buying GIVI's and selling, or trading in, the 
OEM bags if they come with the bike.?
?

Anywhoo.  Nice bikes guys.  Even if you never show us both sides of them :p?
