Buy a Harley if you want a Harley you say?You sound nervous.Triumph went out their way to stay out of the V-twin copy cat game and you guys snivel because it's a bagger.Hey guess what,it's supposed to be a bagger..doh.The good thing though is that it develops over twice the h.p. as that weezy,over priced billet barge from Milwaukee, otherwise known as the Anemic-Glide.Harley can't get a touring customer base under 55 with their chrome wheelchairs.Buy a harley.Too funny...
ROFLMAO! "...base under 55 with their chrome wheelchairs..." Great retort! BTW, Cycle World just awarded the new TBird their Best in Class for the cruiser division.
This bike will not sell. I give it a 2 or 3 year run at most and you won't see anymore of it after that. It's butt ugly and that tank is so freakin huge. Let's not even talk about the liquid cooled motor. A cruiser needs to be air cooled to look right. Also I'm willing to bet that under most of that shiny chrome you will find cheapo plastic...
I fully agree but I have decided to ride it first - then check the customizing options- before I make up my mind whether to buy it or not - if yes it´s not gonna be a bagger -
I am thinking more about the speedmaster dragstyle ... with this new engine it could be a cracker...
I agree, I love my '07Triumph Speedmaster, but I bought it because it looked like a Triumph not and not a Harley. I was hoping for a larger cruiser between the Rocket III and the America/Speedmaster (they ruined the look of those bikes too, by trying to copy Harley.), Instead we get a classic name without the classic style. boo.
the speedmaster is a triumph and it its a good looking bike.. this one is just another jap styled cruiser.. dont give it two yrs production and I cant believe they used the thunderbird name for this one.. what dicks. thats how you kill of an iconic name and bike
Triumph riders dont steel bikes ..we just ride them ..Well done triumph !!!!!!!!!!!
