2003 Triumph Speed Triple. This is considered by many ( myself included ) to be the best year for the model. The good: New tires, new brakes, new oil, just serviced. There are many extras including fly screen, belly pan, bar end mirrors, Gen Mar bar risers, extra new battery, and an Arrow ( I believe ) exhaust which sounds fabulous. The bad: There is a minor pulse felt at under 10 mph while braking. I was told by the dealer ( MCC ) it is likely the buttons that need some adjusting, but they can't feel it, and since it hasn't worsened I was going to wait until the next service to have it looked at. The ugly: There is a scratch on the left engine case but I believe it can be buffed out. The can took some knock but I never noticed until I cleaned it up for the pictures. The front wheel shows some rash at the exterior aspect of the lip that was there when I purchased as a second owner. I have never driven the bike near its potential and have purchased a cruiser. Good luck with bidding.
