New Thunderbird for 2010

[Reborn]

Can't decide if I like it or not.

Perhaps it should be called the Hurricane. The styling reminds me more of that than a thunderbird.

What do you think?

I thought it looked ok but have changed my mine after I read this

They want customers to be lured by the potential of a 1600cc bike that’s neither Japanese nor a Harley, but necessitate the purchase of expensive aftermarket accessories in order to get it to look and perform like it should.
Triumph will offer in excess of 100 add-ons for the Thunderbird, available directly from dealers or a website specifically created for the purpose that will launch next month.
In addition to the usual selection of handlebars and exhausts, there will also be a kit to take the engine out to 1700cc
The range of accessories, the most extensive for any Triumph bike yet, will compliment its new "Triumph, engineered by Alpinestars" range of clothing, further diversifying their offerings into the motorcycle-related lifestyle and aftermarket accessory market.

Well I suppose if Harley can do it so can Triumph. There are plenty of companys offering trick bits for blinging up bikes, difference here is Triumph are doing there own bling (so it's going to be expensive bling!)

Yep, I suppose if you've bags of money you could really have a cracker with this!

It's not my style of bike, but it does look a beast
