I have to vent! Yes we understand this is an America Forum, BUT all the other forums I belong to have a section we can all talk, compare and just chat about the Thunderbird/Americas/Speedmaster. I have an America and will keep it but on Saturday 10/23/10 I am going to pick up my 1700 special edition thunderbird in Phantom Red Haze. this dosen't mean I won't visit my America forums it just gives me something to talk to the other Triumph lovers about.   I think you were Childish. I have other Triumph forums that allow all bikes including a Sister Triumph so COLOR ME GONE  .
Anyone that says "OLD IS SLOW" has never ridden a V65 magna!

Dude, relax, that's an old sticky from before the T-Bird even came out. Every two minutes someone would post some new rumor on the dang thing, that's why she put that announcement up there. Have fun with your new bike.
Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

 Mightymouse[sr] will never hang around, Since he read mert's thread with a frown There he goes off on his way That means that mightymouse[sr] isn't here to staaaaaay!!! (ah come on, Mighty ol' boy...we talk about the T-bird all the time around here...and most of us don't have a problem talkin' about that motorcycle...like me for instance...I like the bike, I really do...I just always wished Mr. Bloor's boys would've designed a little more friggin' FINS around its friggin' cylinder barrels, THAT'S all...other than THAT, it's not a bad lookin' bike AT ALL....feel better now?!)
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

What is it with people around here lately? I almost prefer the spammers to some of them. We have idiots telling us how to run the site and we've got newbies trying to stir things up all over the place. Makes me want to get out the Ban Hammerâ„¢.

So, moving up to a T-Bird gives one a big headed attitude?

 well that is the thing isn't it. I can have my opinion and thoughts the same as any of the high post count members. A little bit of trash talk is fine and dandy coming from some of you as long as none comes back to ya

Okay, you two. Now, I realize that it'll very soon be time for all you guys in the states of New York AND Pennsylvania(not to mention the rest of the Northeastern and Midwestern states) to "Winterize" your bikes (that IS what you guys call that, RIGHT???!!!), but GEEEEEZE...can't we at least wait until, say, mid-December for you guys who can't ride all year long to start jumpin' down each other's throats 'round here???!!!

Tru dat, Dwight. You are one observant gent. It happens every year after cold weather sets in. I've succumbed to it myself a time or two and still can't put a finger on why it has to happen - yet it does.
