I was just surfing around checking out some specs on the ol' S3 and thought this might be helpful to all the new S3 owners, and for those contemplating picking one up. You know you want to!!

I`m such a new owner I don`t even pick it up `til next week.

Do you see the PROS vs. CONS?

cons:
1)Bad Mirrors-Changed
2)High exhausts prevent saddlebags : Saddlebags???? ???(Yeah,give me the exta large leather ones with fringes please!)
3)Passenger pegs too high.-What passenger?I ride,not transport :gtfoassenger pegs are always the first thing to come off my bikes

I`m looking foward to this bike ;D

Passenger pegs that are mounted too high help too accentuate a skinny girls ass. Always a plus in my book... flash the thong...

Hey goat, all the cons you have listed are easy fixes man.

1. Mirrors are easy as hell to swap out and remove. Plenty of aftermarket options.
2. If you're worried about high exhaust, they make several different GP style pipes you can go with that mount lower and look sweet.
3. You're getting rid of passenger pegs, so that's a fix in itself for ya.

Pros:
1. It's a Triumph 1050 S3 man!!!!

8) 8) 8) Cool! Thanks for the help anyway.That article was the most positive review I`ve ever seen for a bike.The worst thing they could say was `the styling`,which I happen to love.
