Are the above going to be included on this forum? They are, after all, Triumph parallel twin powered cruisers, the same as Americas and Speedmasters.
Just curious.

IMHO the only resemblance is the tank badge. Drive line, cooling, displacement, they are in no way similar.
I don't see why they would be included. Certainly T-Brd owners are welcome here. We have members that don't own a bike here.
I try to aggravate one person a day. Today may be your day.

I believe they're opening up a spot for them here: Thunderboid Forums 
'08 America Blue/White; Custom Headlamps, Custom Lowers, Clearview 20", Bafflectomy

T-bird owners certainly wouldn't be turned away but T-bird posts would be in the "Other Bikes" section. As Ron said above they have very little in common with the BA or SM but same basic principles apply as far as the way the engine works. But the bird is water cooled and larger displacement also FI I think although the BA and SM are now too.Weight and wheel base are different too.

No one will be turned away as Ian said but I doubt we'll be adding forums for the Thunderbird. It's the same basic configuration as our bikes but it's a completely different animal mechanically and technologically (water, FI, belt drive, etc., etc.).
