Quote: All of their motors, all one of them that is, run even with the Thunderbird. So in their class the motors are not lacking at all. If all you make is cruisers and you have a motor that JD Power rated as outstanding and the best in 2006 why would you make a lot of different ones?
Yep. They're not going to tinker with success at this point in time.
If you're looking for a smaller-displacement or starter bike, look no further than the Triuumph 865 machines. It's something that Triumph does very well.
I found the Speedmaster to be an excellent bike to learn on! After a year and a half and 15,000 miles, I grew out of it and moved up to my first Victory motorcycle.
The last time I saw my old 2005 Speedmaster another 15,000 had been added to the odometer over the last four years. That bike was very well cared-for. I swear, even being six years old, it looked almost as good as new.
