Good points, FJ.
Soren, looking at that particular artist's rendering of a proposed RocketIII tourer, what makes you think that it wouldn't sway a few Goldwing or BMW LT buyers over to Triumph?
To tell ya the truth, I kind of like it, and think that THIS was the bike Mr.Bloor should have brought out over two years ago.
If one wished to have less plastic wrapped around their Rocket but still wanted to Interstate tour on it, they already could do that with the present bike and just add the windshield and the bags as accessories.
