The wheels are also interchangeable, so the 19/17" cast wheels could be fitted to the XC for road duties and vice-versa.

From a very cursory inspection, the front end of the 1st bike had a spoked 21 inch front wheel and lots of fanicily (IMHO) molded plastic bits that looked a lot like a F800gs and the back end of the other looked like a 17 rear with, again lots of wacky molded plastic shaped stuff, like the Yam xt660 Tenere.

Maybe it will be a f800gs/XT660T hybrid?doh

When you get the chance, check the Triumph clothing catalogue and their "Adventure Clothing" section. I would scan and upload the appropriate (IMHO funny) pages, but I can't find the cable that connects my scanner to the PC, sorry). So, if you buy the bike, make sure you buy the gear so you can look the part .C

I can't seem to find an online catalogue with "Adventure Clothing ".

Looks to me like the first thing TT is going to bring out is an indicator relocation kit. Drop that bike in the crate and you'd better remember your hand signals and hope it isn't MOT day!
