I'm seriously looking at the Triumph America.
However, I've been told by a couple of guys at work that getting a cruiser with a chain drive would be a big mistake in this day and age when motorcycle shaft drives are so dependable and trouble free.
One of the guys also told me that he had a chain snap on a bike once while he was going 50 mph down the road and narrowly missed his leg.

Indeed, a Google search on chain versus shaft drive yields an overwhelming majority of hits that give the nod to shaft drive.

Clearly, Triumph is a motorcycle you could never be happy with. Buy something else.


if life gives you lemons keep them because hey,free lemons.
