I am amazed at the number of people that own or hope to own a Triumph.
I don't believe this would be the case in any other board. It must be a Mac thing. I am starting think that my next bike will be a Triumph
This motorcycle thing is like an addiction, I can tell by the jacket that you are all set for your next bike. Triumph as some of the nicest motorcycle gear.

I had my first Triumph a BSA and a Norton before Apple had a Mac so it might be the other way around.
I love my Bonneville. Upright riding is for me. They've come a long way. 850cc's of electric start, no oil leaking, headlight working bliss.I see quite a few Triumphs used in flicks these days.
Beautiful bike!
I'd love a Ducati, but I know I'd kill myself on the first day on it, or any other bike actually.
I think your calculations are wrong, or you have the wrong model 1098. In the US they run around $15,000. There are models that are in the $50k to $70k range.
I got mine last Summer. With Taxes came up to $18,643.00. Using the google calculator, this is what I got
18643 CAD = 82569.8470 DKK
I don't know about the US but in Europe the 1098 has already been superseded by the 1198 - supposedly quite a bit superior especially if specced with traction control. I know a couple of guys who bought their dream bike in the 1098 and are pretty upset that Ducati have improved it already, but hey that's progress I suppose. I can't ride one as they're too uncomfortable for my height
Here's my "pipe and slipper silver Viffer" Honda VFR800 VTEC ABS:
The 1198 will go on sale here next month. It's pretty much the same bike with a engine size increase of 100cc (from 160hp to 170hp). Now the 1098S is a different story. the 1198S comes with traction control. That is a big upgrade.
I have no plans to use the Ducati on the track, I use a Honda for that, the base 1098 will do fine on the street.
I love the VFR800, a friend of mine just covered Canada's east coast on one. A two week trip

Well being a Brit it's a matter of national pride to have a Triumph obviously
I love the retro styling of the Triumph classics range too and having recently seen On Any Sunday it has only reinforced my desire to look like Steve McQueen.
I dragged my poor wife along to a Triumph dealership yesterday and had a sit on one of the new 2009 models. She wasn't as excited as I was for some odd reason. Oh and yes, I am rocking the bobble hat look

Yeah! Another Triumph fan! Do the fork gators come standard on the Scrambler or an add on?
So you buying?
They don't leak ya' know. I always had to put a drip catcher under all by Brit. bikes except this one.
So you buying?
It's 2009! Motorbikes don't leak oil anymore!! Even British and Italian ones!

I suppose now you're going to tell me they don't have carb ticklers and a kick start anymore.
Haha, so true. Man, I miss California.
Ah ok, yeah my parents were contemplating on moving there because of the cheap houses a couple years back. But decided against it, and now here we are in freakin' Canada...
