Well I am new to the world of Triumph after many years of owning Harleys and Jap I bought a 2010 Speedmaster I like the style of my bike as for the 2011 Speedy I would not buy one there are three main turnoff's for me on this bike one is the single disc brake on the front, two is the front end itself losing that chunkie look and three and the worse for me on this bike is the rear guard the way it sticks out from the back of the bike and the height of it.
Thunderbird or Thunderbird Storm if I was buying one it would be yes to the Thunderbird and no for the Storm so I will be keeping my 2010 Speedy for quite a while and if I was to buy another Triumph I give a Bonnie a go cheers.
