    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 ;)
