The whole Brit Iron thing frosts my behind. I wouldn't belong to those posers if you paid me. In fact the America has more heritage and retro styling than the Bonneville, Daytona or Trophy.
Triumph modeled the America after the 1938 Speed Twin that made them the world leader in motorcycle sales and design. The Brit Iron club can stick this where the sun don't shine.
As far as the T-Bird, it'll be a nice bike but it's built for a different segment and will appeal to a bunch of folks.
