As per the title, tomorrow I trade in my Street Triple R for a 2015 MT-09. So a chilly one hour ride up to London in the morning. But looking forward to getting back on something which, I hope, is more reliable that a Triumph.

was the triumph unreliable then ?
Just a bit..... seized cam chain tensioner after 1 month, a very rattly tappy engine (Triumph delers told me it was normal but I didn't like it), shite welds on the exhaust headers that cracked and needed welding up after 5 months, dealer servicing cost a bomb... I lost confidence in the bike so I got shot.
