In 2008 They will rebadge the America. It'll be called the Junior Speedmaster. It'll be marketed to those with heart conditions and pregnant women only.
Learning from my mistakes... again and again.

The real reason they gave the America the bigger (but less powerful) engine was so that all the Sllowwwmasters could keep up! Guess they figured it wasn't right the sm was slower as well as uglier!!

That's just mean. I won't dignify it with a response.

What they really did was make the Speedy/TBA pretty much the same. That way when we TBA folks get our new 1500cc cruiser you guy can still have the little 865 Speedy with more colors and rim choices.
'06 TBA - Black, AI and Snorkel removed, K&N Drop In, Gutted Stock Pipes, 145/42, 2 turns out.

OK, this is interesting, just checking out the Triumph website, and the now 865cc America has the long shotgun pipes that the Soeedmaster started out with, and the Speedmaster has the slashcuts that the America used to have! Put all the parts in a bag, shake 'em up, and what do you get....
