[Ducati] 748 Opinions? Triumph O/T

[John Whiting]

The 675 is much more of a "race bike" than the previous middle weight
Triumphs, i.e. the 600 and 650.  More weight on the wrists with a$$ up
attitude and positioning of bars/seat/pegs.  I do think that the 675 is
a pretty sexy machine, narrow, and purposeful looking.  The 955i's, at
least the earlier models, seemed to have injection glitches, etc.

I too like the 675, but I just can't give up my 955i - I love that
bike...

The 675 gets me hot - it's just waaaaay too tall for me.  The speed
triple
makes me drool a bit too...
