Good looking bike, but those round mirrors look like Mickey Mouse ears on her!

We like the stripes. Might just cast about for someone to do something similar to our '11.
We trudge on.

The pics are from my dealer in UK who just received the bike last Thursday, as I was inquiring on the price for export as I want to order one to replace my 2010 Roadster.

Congrats, Sinai!
I figured the bike was in the UK, as the articles have stated it would roll out in the UK in March and elsewhere starting in April. My vain hope it was hitting the USA early was a bit too optimistic.
May I ask why you made the switch from the '10 to the current model? As far as I can tell, the differences are primarily the paint and removing the power restrictions on gears 1-3, which most would do anyway. Whatever your reasons, I hope to read your report and comparison on the bikes.
Cheers!

I keep a few bikes and tend to change them every couple of years or so, upgrading or getting a new or newer model. I was gonna spend a couple thousand on upgrading/changing the look of the Roadster. Then I saw they launched a new version losing a lot of the chrome for black parts which was my plan for the 2010.
I just like the look of the 2013 Roadster and the additions they made to the looks with the white stripes. More sexy!
The 2010 Roadster was the first Triumph I ever owned, and I've had about 30 odd bikes since i started riding from Fireblades, Busas, VMax to big cruisers but i liked the Roadster ever since I first rode it.
It will be interesting to see if there's any real life performance difference between the two years...
I gotta PC5 with Autotune and a Zard 3-1on the 2010 which has upped the performance. I'll be switching that over to the new bike after running it in!
