Speed Triple RR

I had a chance to sit on one today. They took the comfort out of the standard bike and hit it with a pretty stick. This one looks half the size of the standard Triple, I suppose an illusion. So far as the riding position, I'd say it's about 2/3 extreme from my v11 Sport into full a sportbike. A had to tippy toe it a little bit too but it wasn't a problem for me. The mirrors swing out, so very adjustable.
It's a nice looking bike, reminds me of the early '00s Guzzi Lemans although not quite that pretty. A little bit retro. Given that I'm a little puzzled why they didn't make it a touch more comfy but I'm perhaps a little older than their target.

They also had a new 660 Tiger there. A lightweight standard.

Those are high on my list of Machines To Consider When My Wife Takes Over The Ducati Scrambler. Which she's had eyes on since I rode it home.

I'm sure it will wheelie, the specs on the new triple are bonkers. 165rwhp, 87 ft lbs torque, 437 ponds at the curb.

Are the passenger foot rails removable or fold out of the way?

Although perhaps not as good looking as the more classic Thruxton, I think the RR is a knock-out. It'd be a rocket for a track bike. Pity I'm too old for that sort of thing.
