As an addition to the S3 press launch they had a little section with Triumph Product co-ordinator

The street bike sector is one of the only to have a significant growth from 2006 to 2007, so it is very important to us with the Speed and Street Triples. But our philosophy is to have a broad range of bikes over a large number of areas to attract different types of rides. It's good for us to attract different types of riders. It's good for us because it's safe. It, for example, the cruiser market in America isn't strong we have the Modern Classic range. We will be broadening this range iover the next few years. There are significant new model, not just updates, coming

Don't believe it for a second, what he is really saying is "we can't go on much longer selling all these bikes to people who really don't want to buy them. We understand that 107% of the population want a 1750cc Sports bike but until that figure reaches 183% we just aren't interested, besides with only 4.5 million litre sports bikes being sold in the UK in the last 3 months it's not really economically viable when we can sell 14 Street Triples"
