Im not sure on which to go with, I still need to test drive each. Ive noticed that just from looking at the specs, the Buell has more torque, but the Street triple 675 has a 12 cylinder liquid cooled engine with 6 gears and has a different gear ratio of course... I would just like to know for the money, which is the better overall bike ?

damn...that's 10 cylinders more that our little ol' buell.

you're trying to compare engine's with totally different characteristics on a buell oriented forum.
i think you'll get more objective opinions on a general motorcycle forum.

the street triple is lighter and will probably be a good handler.
knowing triumph, it will be a good and fun bike.
although i prefer buell, which is why there's one in my garage :D

looks, sound, torque, handling...
go for the testride and you'll know ;)

Whatever way you go please let us know what you thought of both....its always nice to have comparisons. Especially from a non Buell owner....yet;)
