A slightly modified Thruxton had a couple of runs at 129mph; a highly modified Thruxton (over $30k) ran around 148mph.



Tod, did you happen to talk to these guys? I have the feeling that they were from SoBay Triumph in Lomita CA.

I know Matt Capri, the owner of that dealership went with a couple of guys who he put big-bore and stroker kits on their Thruxtons, and motojournalist Alan Cathcart was also supposed to be there to do a writeup for Motorcyclist Magazine.

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)
