My new 07 America is my first bike in over 20 years. I'm 47, the kids are grown and I decided to get my first bike since my early married days. My folks came over the other day and I thought my father, who is in his 70's, would give me grief for buying the bike. Hey what can I say, I still care what the old man thinks. Instead of giving me grief, he saw the bike and said man when I was a kid in the 50's I always wanted one of those Triumphs, start it up lets hear it. There's just something about them.
