And speaking of "The Great Thunderbird Controversy", OR I suppose, if you can't seem to get enough of this issue here....

How many of you have seen this YouTube page here?:

Now, what I find the most interesting thing about that YouTube page are the comments made about the machine by the people there. And I think at least one of 'em is a member in good standing around here too.(Dennis, is that YOU???)

The comments seems to run between the "PRO"(as in something like.."It's about time Triumph went head-to-head against H-D and made a large displacement twin-cylinder crusier to compete with them"), and the "CON"(as in something like, "If I wanted a Harley, I'd buy a Harley. That isn't a 'real' Triumph!")

Man! And I STILL can't seem to figure out why this machine seems sooooo controversial to some???!!!

(except of course for that ONE little issue about...ummm...YOU KNOW!!!...but THAT'S a LITTLE issue!)

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
