All,
I am ready for a shaft drive from Triumph in either a sport-tourer or a
Touring-Sport. Something like a lighter weight Trophy with adj.
suspension and shaft drive. I was waiting for an FJR, but when Yamaha
decided that we didn't need it over here last year, I bought a Sprint ST
and couldn't be happier.
But if Triumph brings out a shaft drive sporty bike, I may decide my
garage will hold two Triumphs...
But I think the first "shafty" from Triumph will be the 2.3 (yea, now
it's rumored to be a 2.3) cruiser.
