Street Triple 765R does sound a bit weaponised for a first bike but I also reckon it depends entirely on the head on your shoulders.
Pretty much what Guru Geoff said. I'm used to driving cars with a power to weight ratio well in excess of 300bhp/ton (hello Golf Club), and with no electronic driver aids at all, over moutain roads where if you go off, the chances are you're not coming back other than in a box. So I might survive.
What I really want is a Matchless Model X*, but in the meantime I suspect some electronic safety nettage is probably not a bad thing.

Cheers. Current plan is to go straight to Direct Access, possibly in May, get a full licence and get a Street Triple 765R. My motorbike guru Geoff says that's a good plan. Whether he's right or not remains to be seen.
