I bet when they get the Sceptres for the T-Bird, that will be a incredible sound!

Oddly enough, having seen the bike twice, sat on it ( it fits me like it was made for me ), and looked it over thoroughoy, I think its the REAL DEAL. I disliked it in pictures, but it is beautiful in person ( though, the rear fender could be different, and the pipes need to be changed out ). The quality of the goods, the details, are great and of the best quality of any Triumph bike. No plastic all over, its solid, metal turn signals, most all chrome is real, not plastic crap. Heck, it puts the R III to shame, with all the plastic bits on the R III ( the LED tailight is sharp ). The wheels are gorgeous! I wouldnt waste money on chrome ones, I like the polished metal look. The clear lenses are sharp. The stiching on the rear pillion slants in and meets with the stripes on the fender, subtle and neat.

The opportunity for aftermarket bits looks great. I would like to see it with black out engine casings in place of the chrome ( just to see how it would look ).

I wonder ( would be surprised if they didnt ) come out with a touring version.

In person, I think its a winner.
