During the last year I have been thinking about downsizing to a lighter bike. My Thunderbird Commander weighs around 750 lbs. fully fueled and is just not that fun sometimes especially riding around town. You always have to consider the weight when parking or even stoplight to stoplight. I have been looking at the Triumph Speed Twin. It weighs in at 432 lbs. and also has the 1200 Thruxton tune that produces 96hp vs 77hp of the new SM. It looks like it would be fun. I might miss the long distance comfort and capability of the TBird though.
