There's a decent possibility. Triumph used a "standard" 3.5" spacing on our bikes, like the Harleys. Stands to reason they would do that again with the Thunderbird. Maybe someone over on www.thunderbird1600.com can give a more definitive answer. And for that kind of money you should be able to find some t-bars from an aftermarket dealer that will work and look about the same.

I believe they will not work...got an email from thunderbike...
Hi Bob,
I'm afraid the riser centres are wider on the Touring so our TBars aren't suitable.
Regards
Kevin(from Thunderbike) Now their T-Bars will fit all years of the Rocket Classics..just not the R3T..AND the Thunderbird Bars will fit our R3T..therefore I believe the Thunderbird and the R3T share the same center spacing..therefore they may not fit the America/speedmaster...But as Friar suggests there are several aftermarket resources available..just my 2 cents worth!
life is good..I am retired..sold my America in 2008,bought a Rocket and sold that in 3/2013 and now own a new Triumph Bonneville T-100

You can still find t-bars like that in the aftermarket with the proper 3.5" spacing. They just won't be genuine Triumph t-bars.
