Anyone offended by what might well seem like sycophantic levels of praise, should stop reading now.

The fact is, the naked bike isn't just one of my favourite Triumphs (praise in itself, such is the high standard of machines currently being produced by the Hinckley factory), but one of my favourite bikes full stop.
