RE: [ST] MCN 05 ST Review

["Jonathan" <jonathanrellis@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Contrast that to the latest issue of Motorcyclist that just came out - they
liked it a lot, but hated the bags and complained about the heat.  I read
the MCN article and was scratching my head after I read it.  They are
supposed to be free of commercial influence, but I just didn't get it - an
old VFR came up on top??  Perhaps they were die-hard VFR fans prior??  It
didn't seem to make much sense to me.

Have we already talked about this?

Boy was that a bad review for the ole new ST.
Came in last to VFR, ST3, R1200ST.
Last by 'a mile' they said.

Mentioned heat like Commander Serlick said was a prob.
Also forward slanting seat, curious FI issues, suspension too hard?
Hadn't heard that on (suspension).
They said maybe Triumph didn't 'prep' it correctly or something and that
they had expected it to win, were disappointed, etc.

The only guy I know with one loves it and can fly on it as well.
