benellis are pure sex, but they put the rad under the seat for some reason. supposed to be pretty easy to overheat them if you live in a warm climate. something to watch out for if you decide to grab one,id def hit it with water wetter if i had one

While other Italian motorcycle brands have at least tried to get some sort of quality control and engineering into their bikes, Benelli had yet to follow. Serious electrical problems and really bad fuel mapping which probably is related to electronics issues.

Triumph triples on the other hand seem to be doing pretty well. A Speed Triple with an Arrow 3-in-1 exhaust sounds bad to the bone. I personally like the new Tiger. Very funk bike to ride.

I've only ever sat on a Speed Triple...but it's very comfortable to sit on. I'm 5'10 with a 32 inch inseam. The ST maybe my next bike...if I ever get sick of the Buell.
