you still may wanna look into the Tbird. Words will not suffice to explain the kind of reaction this bike is having right now. Large numbers of new members are joining the forums daily and speaking about the bike in terms that are almost religious. Seriously....i have never seen any model of triumph gather such a huge number of new owners with such glowing raves. You really should go to thunderbird1600.com and read as many posts as you can just to get to all these posts. You might just realize theres something to this bike that is unfortunately not yet widely known but is amazing. I'm not just saying this because i think it's so fantastic. But there are endless numbers of owners and mag reviews that in so many words are calling it a once in a lifetime bike, and i gotta tell you to me it truly is. I don't mean to sway you from the victory, but i really think it would be a mistake to not at least thoroughly investigate the bike.

When i ordered mine about a week ago, there was a guy from the factory at the shop. He said that the bike is such a success, Triumph are having to boost production numbers.
