Yeah - I noticed a couple thinking it's a vintage bike - it's not. It's a 2006 model. Triumph re-introduced the Bonneville, Scrambler, and Thruxton - calling them "modern classics". In alot of ways, it's VERY close to the vintage bikes of the 60s-70s, but the shortcoming have been addressed for sure. It doesn't leak oil, it has VERY nice disc brakes, and modern iginition. It's also an absolute pleasure to ride.
Cracker - I change out better halfs more than I do my cars/bikes.  |
