My son just picked up this beauty:

We now have a '09 and a '11 in the family.

Very Nice. I like the red against the black engine.  Look forward to the pics of both bikes together.

Congrats to your son! I like what they did to the forks on the new models, and the seat.

Pardon my crappy photography.




As you can see, the 2011 has different risers, handlebars, gauges, and mirrors. The pillion pegs are now welded to the frame. There are a lot of small differences. Overall, I think Triumph did a good job.
I donated my spare set of EPCO pipes to the cause.

Thank you for the photos the bars do look a lot wider so how does it feel to ride and I really like the look of the risers a set could look real good on my Speedy cheers.

The bars don't seem much (if any) wider, though they are pulled back a bit more. I didn't measure anything, but between the risers and bars it seems like the seating position is more upright by a couple of inches.
