They should have come out with a 330-lb. 500cc parallel twin (think, modern version of the T100R Daytona).

That "Thunderbird" is a pig. It's a knock-off of a knock-off and will only sell because it says "Triumph" on the tank.

If there's one positive thing I can say, it's that at least with this attempt at co-opting an old name to boost sales, they have the correct number of cylinders.
