AmyLee, Many thanks for the scanned article. I've been salivating over it for the last fifteen minutes.

For those of you naysayers who say it doesn't look "Triumph" enough, print out a picture of this and a picture of your America, lay them side by side, and add up the similarities. I think they did a great job of keeping a similar feel compared to Triumph's other cruisers in the Thunderbird and I can't wait for the day I pull up alongside the H-D a-holes at bike night and can not only brag about how great my Triumph is but also start calling their bikes the "little 1500s!!!." (Yes, I've been taking some ribbing...)

I do think the name badge is too small and have written Triumph about it. Hopefully they'll throw a little Miracle-Gro on that item.


2007 America, Phantom Black/Sunset Red Deposit down on 2010 Thunderbird - can't wait for it!
