Default 900ss 955i or Speedtriple

Your thoughts on either of the below trio please.

Which one would you buy?

Ok none are millionsquillion mile n hour bikes, but then I don't want that anymore

Anyway that's one of the conditions I can have one again


I believe they can all be had for approx 3k?

From a late "carbed" 900ss to an early 955i

Obv it would need a high level carbon can







All it needs to be able to do is wheelie well n sound the tits when the mrs an't on the back

Think the Duke wins on looks but the humph has it on sounds

Either of the Triumphs by a country mile for me!

Not a fan of the 4valve ducatis, to dated, too breathless up top

The Triumph triple is a stonking engine
The 955i is a great real world superbike and the speed triple is great fun too

What about an Aprillia Falco? Can get those for about 3k

Cheers
After a visit to me local humph dealer I think your right n the 900ss would now be my second choice. A speed triple would be 1st but they seem to be going for a tadge over 3k, saying that so do nice 955’s, but I may be able to squeeze a little more from the mrs lol
Not thought about much else n tbh I haven’t a clue what the Aprillia is lol
Not a fan of them anyway.
