Tom, I'd say probably in the $10-12 Grand range. (though I'm thinkin' if they're assembled in Thailand, maybe around the $7-8 Grand range)  (Okay!!! What have I started 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)

That's what I was thinking also, sure hope they are built in Hinkley!

If Triumph is anything like Waters (where I work) they tend to build stuff in house for the beginning of the production run, then once the kinks are worked out, and newer stuff takes priority, they farm it out to asia and the cycle starts over.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed here but I called the National Distributor for Triumphs in Greece today on his cell phone and he was in ... Hinckley! He was unable to speak to me but is returning during the weekend and we left it that we will have a chat on Monday. Of course, my intention is to get any info on the 1500cc I can. This is the same guy who gave us the info on the changes to the 2007 SM and America first! Link to that Post. Let's hope we have something to chew on, on Monday.

If it's 10-12 grand, I would be inclined to lean towards the Tiger. But maybe not.

I'm betting on '09......if ever. We would have seen spy shots by now, if it were that close, seriously.
