All the press seem to like it. Good for Triumph for saying 'screw the 600 cc cap, we aren't going racing' and doing their own thing with a triple and 675cc.
Apparently the sound of the engine and exhaust note is supposed to be intoxicating. I considered the charcaol grey one, but with only one left to come to Western Powersports, they just weren't willing to deal, so I got my GSX-R750 for $2000 less than the Triumph. That's alright though, I LOVE my Gixxer! It too has won some 'best sportbike' nods this year and it's like a 600 on steroids.
All I can say is theres nothing like a triple! Sweet motor in that thing, pulls way harder through the midrange than any 600 and has enough top end to hit warp factors.
