Right on Dwight! I'm throwin in with Skillet and JB - I thought it was a good article. Yeah, yeah, I know we took vows to defend and protect Triumph, and okay, I know we're all true believers and members of the church of St. Bonnie, but still...
Just thought I'd mention that the T100 is a very, very different bike - ever ridden one? I rode the Bonnie before I got my BA and got a bit unnerved at 70 - wanted to slide backwards on the flat seat (been ridin cruisers since '85 kids), and things, well, felt a bit tippy. I liked it, but I was definitely puckered...
And about the engine being a bit, um, less powerful than some of us (those who have done the exhaust swap, new jets, freaks, etc and et al) would like? Well hey, I think the secret's out.
Still? There's lots to like about Americas and Speedys - they're a class ride and for a small investment (ha ha ha) you can bring out the beast. And if you don't plunk down the change? Either flavor's a class ride.
