Its catching on BB this year, finally after years of talking about it I'm now a 2011 Triumph Speed Triple owner having traded in my 2006 Honda Blackbird this morning.
Its diablo red has covered just over 6000miles and is in fantastic condition, the previous owner fitting a bit of extra stuff and a very nice SC Project exhaust.
Pics taken last weekend in the sun when I test rode it on trade plates and sorted out the deal. Its now sporting the pillion pegs and no seat cowl to keep my Mrs happy and has brand new PR4s fitted. Thought I'd try these tyres out as BB raves about them
Overall very happy and this feels tiny and light compared to my Blackbird.

Thanks for the replies, yes it was from Daytona in Ruislip. Snapped it up after the guy who placed a deposit down for it failed to show up to pay and collect it despite many attempts to contact, had to wait about a month accordingly before it was officially for sale again just in case.
The exhaust is fully Road legal but does sound amazing over the standard twin cans. I'll be keeping the baffle in as I'm using it daily for commuting.

I had one in 2005 and the engine was a peach, best "road" engine on any bike I have ever ridden. After 3 years of loving tender care, there were too many quality issues 😢 And I demo'd a KTM Superduke and fell in love. Have owned 2 Superdukes since 2008 and if money was no object I think I would have to have another Speed Triple in the stable. But not to replace the KTM.
