 Just picked up the T-Bird as is with 8400 miles for $9995.00, the ride from San Jose to Chowchilla was smooth and solid as a rock. It already has what I was looking for in accessories, to personalize it I have plans to add driving lights, foot boards, drivers back rest and highway pegs.

Score! Sorry to see the Trophy go but at least you didn't replace your America.

SWEEEEEEEET!!!  And like John said, that's quite a score I'd say, too! 
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)

T-birds are just cool!
Congrats on your new bike. Great choice.
I try to aggravate one person a day. Today may be your day.

No, AmyLee wouldn't let me sell the TBA, even if I wanted to, and I don't. I still have too much fun on the Bonnie, and I like the light, and agile feel she has in the local hills. The T-Bird is for more highway cruising two up, so AmyLee has her choice of driving or riding. Your right John, I was a little sad to see the Trophy go, it was good to me over the past twelve years of riding, she was the bike I rode to the 100 year Triumph Across America, that ended in Pasadena summer of 2002.
