Anybody heard anything about this sweet little triple lately? Why aren’t there any small 4 stroke triples out there? Honda made a 4 stroke 4 cylinder, so why not?

It would be so torquey, sound AWESOME, and still rev up and get cookin.

Same here Matt. I’ve had a guy named Shankar respond to my inquiries. He’s assured me it will be available in the US this year and that he’d update me on its progress. I’ll check with Vento now. Thanks for the tip.

i have been very interested in this bike and last night i decided to email one of the 2 guys listed in the contact page for the caffe triplo. i got a reply today from nicola butti, which goes a little exactly like this:
“Ciao Matt,
thanks a lot for your support.
Regarding the future of CaffeTriplo…
I can only suggest to contact VENTO (good luck with it!)
and check with them.
At this stage I’m also not aware of what are the plans.

Meanwhile enjoy your SV!

Best,
Nic”

sounds not so great for the caffe triplo. oh, i had mentioned i’d drop my sv650 in a second to get the triplo.

Uh-Oh! I just discovered the motor is available without the bike. any bets on whether i could ‘shoehorn’ one into my ‘o4 250 ninja? i am further wondering, is this an OHC motor or does it use push rods? some of the other chicom motors are… i notice a 400cc V-twin motor is available as well. i am a sick man-”KawiVento” any one?…j
