Apologies to any speedy riders, the photo didn't come out!

Inside the new Thunderbird engine

It was an excellent day out, lots of bargains to be had. Some traders had leathers reduced by over 50%!
I bought a pair of Lewis leather trousers for £49 and a pair of Axo boots for £50, both were less than half the usual price! (good old credit crunch!)

Thanks for the excellent photos Gumpt (as usual) I do like the look of the Thruxton. I go every other year too the NEC as by the time i,ve taken fuel, tickets and parking fees into consideration I don,t seem to save that much on merchandise. Though they seem to have discounted by more than usual this year.

Thanks for the great pics Gumpt especially the Thunderbirds engine split open like that very cool. Pity they broke a few of the other Triumphs on display h: :ya2:

I was looking at the pics of that black bonnie with the gold decal instead of a badge and the alloys and dunstall/thruxton style pipes on the triumph site the other day and was thinking to myself how thats the first bonnie i have seen that could almost pull me away from cruisers. ALMOST. I wish they'd have used that decal on the Tbird instead of that crummy badge they used.

Thanks for sharing the photos. I like the shape of the new T-bird, but sure miss the gold pen strips and two colors.
