While driving back from the show I saw a Large 18 Wheeler with "Triumph" all over it and a rear lift up as high as it could go with a large bike on it at "the Ft worth Dealer".
So I u-turned and and came back to Riverside and it was the Triumph Demo team and 4 of the New Rocket III tourer's
. The Bikes we beautiful. All the colors were represented. These were Demos that the press used in San Antonio and although we could sit on them, start them we couldn't ride them.
They sit lower, and have all the amenities such as quick release removeable Windshields, Racks and Sissy bars, Bags and a full fledged electronic computer within the Speedo, Fuel guage area. Self canceling blinkers, cruise control, and a sweet looking quick release fly screen.
Much better than the magazine and apperantly these are of 8 that are in the states. After a long conversation with the rep and stating that I had the last year T-Bird. He said Oh don't worry the "Thunderbird will soon live again, and it just won't be a triple." He then stopped and said he spoke to soon and wouldn't crack on more information. Maybe this will be the long awaited 1530 thats been rumored.
The Rocket Tourer was sweet. I may have to trade in my T-Bird.
