Middle ground?

From what I can tell, they've basically split the difference between the America/SM market and the Rocket... Not quite a huge (though still big) displacement tourer, but a lot more engine than the current offerings in the line.

You have to think, though... who buys a Triumph?

...people who want something different. This is certainly aimed at the Harley market, and Harley riders are not going to be sold on a british bike.

I guess the question is: will is be priced competitively enough to sell someone who is just shopping for a cruiser and not necessarily a triumph? ...it just doesn't look much like one to me.
