Any one experienced with Benelli and Triumph I3s

[nhgunnut]

Does anyone here have any experience with the Newer Bennelli’s I3's My wife has yet to get herself a sport bike but wants one. She is not a petite woman so the target is a 1 liter and also she would not be interested in a full out plastic wrapped Sport machine so a sport standard seems a logical choice. We have a in the garage 3 twins to 6's and one I4 I like the twins myself but she like the looks of the Triumph Speed Triple.
She also has seen and like the Bennelli TNT's I am curious what people with real saddle time on either of these machines thinks of them. If you are kind enough to answer I would appreciate knowing your Height and Inseam as this is going to be a big part over the over all Ergos. For my part I have a touch of bias in either case. As a sports car nut in the mid 70s playing with English roadsters has left me with a bad tastes for English electrical systems (the reason the English drink their beer warm is because Lucas makes refrigerators. Old joke but true) and I have to admit to being a bit leery of Italian Motorcycles owned by a Chinese Company.
I would love to know how the service culture of each company has been. What has the machine help up like, and does it retain its original levels of performance?
Thanks in advance for your time
