If the prevailing pattern of Triumph's air-cooled twin line development continues, they will almost certainly come out with a 1,000cc variant...that makes about 35HP at the rear wheel! :-D
It does seem like Triumph could do a little better with the retro-sport concept than they have.
Mine has pretty decent suspension (AK20 cartridge forks and WORKS streettrackers) that ran about $1700 altogether. These things really helped the bike out alot. I'd think that non-adjustable cartridge forks and some "better" shocks, from the OEM, couldn't increase the price too much. The brake is still pretty feeble under hard use and requires a pretty mighty yank of the lever, even with fresh fluid and hunky-dory pads. The single disc might work okay in town, and in magazine-style test stops where the thing never really gets any heat in it, but under rugged use it just wilts. This wouldn't be so if they would have simply given the bike two of the same caliper/rotor. That probably wouldn't cost a gob, either.
