In short:With £2,000 taken out of the Daytona 675's price tag, is Triumph's Street Triple the bargain sportsbike of 2007? Or have the boys from Hinckley cut corners on their new middleweight triple... Pros:With £2,000 taken out of the Daytona 675's

classics but eventually settled on the newest bike I could get for my cash. I figured a street triple would be best but they hold their money very well. Cheapest I could find in Feb 10 was £4500 for a 2007 with 8k miles. By contrast the Hornet is a bargain
