Yes, yes I think you are. (as long as you don't count my wife who says it looks all 'waspish' and nasty).

I'm an expert on ugly bikes (I ride a Fireblade after all) and trust me, that's one ugly bh.

I like it more than the B-King, but that's not really a recommendation.

I like being raped more than I like the Burger King.

Yeah, it's bloody ugly plus they always sound as if they're firing on 3.

NO!!! Its fecking horrible!

Cant believe the rose tints for Triumph on here, thats foul!
Maybe it's actually white but the rose tinted specs make it look that colour!!

It needs to be kept in mind that most bikes look a hell of a lot better with the pillion pegs removed, mirrors removed, black accessories, positioned at the right angle, and a fancy studio photograph. So until I see some real life photos I'm reserving judgement, but unless they've done something about the rear proportions it doesn't do it for me.

Regardless of whether you like the looks of the Speed range of Triumphs I have to hand it to them for breaking the mould of red,blue,white etc in colour choices. Their Nuclear Red (metallic candy pink ?), Metallic neon blue and of course the startling Orange were all stunningly different schemes on the Speed Trip etc.

Not too sure about some of the matt finishes like on the recent models & on a few Kwaks though.

That picture shows a thing of beauty. You lot who think that it's ugly need your eyesight testing -> http://www.danda.co.uk/eye-care/eye-test/
