I still think in the next couple years we will see a 1200 2 up cruiser from Triumph. I cannot believe they would be putting so much effort into the Bobber and not have a 2 up version of it. It may not be called and America or Speedmaster, but it will be and evolution from these cruisers. Just my thoughts.
I hope they do it in time for my retirement. (Which in itself is wishful thinking I suppose) I'm really gonna want a middle sized cruizer when I grow into my "old man legs", and I'd really like it to be at least a 1000 CC displacement from Triumph. Heck, who knows, maybe Indian will have a "mid" model out by then. Just in case,though, I'm covering my bets and keeping all my Triumph leathers and stuff.
Wait a sec here, Rich. So what designation would you ascribe to the Indian Scout with its 1133cc displacement?
Seems a "mid-size" motorcycle to me in the present parlance, anyway.
(...and considering that I come from an era when a 650cc Triumph Bonneville was considered a "big" bike back in the day)
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)
