Take a good look at the Kawi then take a good look at the TBA.
The Kawi looks confused, like it doesn't know what it is. That's probably because it's designers really wanted to build a Harley but had to do it out of Kawi parts. That would be like my mom putting me in dresses since day one because she really wanted a girl. I'd be a bit confused if that were the case.
The TBA on the other hand, looks proud, distinctive, confident. It knows what it is and is comfortable being what it is.
After taking my wife's TBA for a nice long test ride after the brake job yesterday I can relate what an impact a nice Triumph has around here. Everywhere I stopped someone had something to say about the bike.
I better get used to being the bridesmaid on my rattletrap Harley. lol
Chain maintenance is easy. I don't mean to sound harsh but I would not encourage anyone who was not capable or willing to learn basic bike maintenance to get a bike. You are trusting your life to the machine so you should be able to make sure it is worth trusting.
Good luck!
