Being a confirmed Triumph nut took one out and it was really underpowered. I would consider putting a big bore kit on the America. Failing that I would buy a Rocket ....The ride was comfortable and pretty stable it handled well on bends and felt ok on the straights still the same buffeting on the chest at anything over 70ish ....leaves you wit arms like popeye...it is really more for the American market and if they get the aftermarket shiny stuff sorted it will go down well with the yanks. _________________ Honest it wisnae me.

Hey Brian Ohhhhh I have been about this forum since Spud decided to tell me about it two days after he launched the bloody thing .....I tend to stick more to the Triumph sites and drop in now and then just to cause Spud some grief ....he gets bored with folk agreeing with him .... _________________ Honest it wisnae me.
