nice. Check out the Dec/Jan issue of Motorcyclist. There's an article with an extensive coverage of the Triumph "retro-classic" lineup titled "An Icon Reborn"

my March issue only had a picture of the new Thruxtons on the inside cover. But at least I know they are advertising.

great, we just had our NY Bike Show this past Dec. Seems like classic/vintage/cafe racer was the theme of the show. Plenty of vintage bikes and custom cafe racers. And, many manufacturers had cafe racer style concept bikes on display. some pics to help build keep you busy until your show..

I too can't wait to see these new bikes in the flesh, Triumph must soon be releasing them to the UK showrooms soon, I hope

According to my local dealer the T120s will not arrive till March. Thruxtons in late April.
funny, in the 20+ years of owning bikes, I've never had to wait this long for a new bike. Kinda exciting but also hoping I won't be disappointed.

A (few?) years ago, we received our January copy of a magazine in January, and then there semed to be a competition to see who could sell their February issue the earliest in January - now, we have March issues in January? When the national dailies were printed in Fleet Street, you could buy tomorrow's edition after 10.00pm, in the City of London's pubs. Following this trend, will we be able to buy Sunday's papers on Friday, so that we can read the news before it happens? Time travel becomes a reality - politicians beware!

I emailed Bevan's, in Cardiff (our nearest main Triumph Dealer) and had a reply that not even brochures were, yet, available. When they are I have been promised a copy - probably have to pop in to pick one up. MCN have been listing all the important new 2016 marques and models, with a shedload of Triumphs. Some Explorer models will be equipped with cornering ABS (I thought that only BMW and KTM were having the Bosch type and Yamaha have their own version.)

i do remember getting them "on time" then a month before, now a few months.

hey, today's paper says that it will be cold and windy next week. maybe it's happening!

 

[DaveH]

That's only a wild guess - remember Michael Fysh and his "Hurricane - what hurricane?"
