Don't get it as a commuter. A guy I ride with get 28mpg and he's slow paced. The ECU is a first generation FI unit and runs on a logic pattern and Triumph never got it right.
The Daytona 600 is a better machine, again not a commuter

It is this one?

cheers for that , the 2000 - 2002 was a fuel issue with the bike , but the 2002 onwards triumph sorted the fuel problem out , on mcn review says 32mpg and the sv is 40mpg , its a lot more upright bike for me then the sv so wont be getting as much pain in the back or wrists , getting it for a real good price with major low mileage too , the reviews that iv read are all been good for that year of the 600tt , thanks again
