[ST] MC News Triple Survey



The November Motorcycle Consumer News just came in, and it has the form for the
Triumph Triple survey.  This is a chance for everyone to input what they like and
don't like about our beloved ST's.  I've been trying to think of something bad to
say to offset all the positive stuff about the bike, but the best I can come up with
is the lack of bungee hooks.

Thinking about the ST lately, it occurs to me that the Sprint is really the
Bonneville of old, much more so than the new retro-Bonnie.  It is fast, handles
well, is versatile, reliable, and just about a perfect all around competent
machine.  I feel the same way about it as I did about my old 70 Bonnie, which even
was my sole transportation for several years off and on during college and grad
school.  The Sprint just does everything well.

Last long trip of the year for the ST coming up - 5 days up near Boston then into
New Hampshire on business.  You New Englanders better keep the snow away.  We are
due for snow this weekend, but it should melt before I leave Monday.  I wonder if
the 205's work well as snow tires?
