not sure about the colours i cant decide but hey its your bike not mine. Having said that loving the bike had an s3a for a while but i couldnt get on with it for some reason it was the way the engines whine and never feel quite right. Or not like a suzuki triple does if that makes any sense?

Hi John
You must have had a duff one, I loved the noise the triple made. The only one I knew of that did whine was a 250 with a 400 top end on it.
