A little bit. The sad fact is that not many people here have Speed Fours, despite their overwhelming superiority over pretty much any sport motorcycle under $7000... it's too bad.

They're not listed in Triumph's line-up for 2006. Looks like the S4 is done.

Considering that they based the S4 on the TT600, which hasn't been sold for years now, I think the Speed Four had a pretty good run. I was surprised when they didn't use the Daytona 600 as an updated platform. I've already seen the 675 prototype. It looks nice, but I think I'm going to get the daytona 675. But I plan on keeping my S4 too.

Here's a link I found on another site. A few seconds into the clip, there's a guy running the 1/4 mile on a speed four.

Oh yeah, I should probably include the link.

There's one at the Triumph dealer here. They've had it forever (as well as a Speed Triple, Sprint ST and a Thruxton). Seems people in Northern MI don't like Triumph's. They also had a 675. That didn't last long, however.

I just hit 13,000 miles on mine. Still loving it.

Hey, for those of you with Speed Fours, what is parts availability like for them? I'm thinking about getting one.

Hello fellow triumph owners

I just stumbled onto this site while looking for ways to modify my speed four!
So i joined.....obviously!
anywho.....I love the speed four, mine is a 2004 racing yellow, with a rear hugger and a speed sheild from "laminar lip"(well worth the 80 bucks)

Now I'm trying to decide which way to tune the fuel map.......any real world advice would be helpful

which air filter, exhaust, etc........my local triumph dealer says he can tune it and dial in a little smoothness....for around an hours worth of labor. I know i'll be in constant "tweak" mode if i buy a pc .....
I really just enjoy riding through the twisties!

I found a post on speedfour.org about modifying the stock exhaust.....it called for cutting the welds on the tip pulling the end cap, cutting off the tip at the flared part (about halfway in) so you can pull out the packing and baffle. I did this and chose to reweld it (be careful to reposition it correctly)....tap the end cap on snugly with a wooden block and re-weld the end cap as before.
looks stock, with a nice improvment in sound and punch! and it didn't hurt my wallet!

Just in case anyone was wondering about my site name, .......I'm a born again christian.......love the bible.......because He (Jesus) first loved me.

Ride safe!
