I am looking to get a new Triumph and can not decide between the T100, Scrambler, and Thruxton. Recommendations? I currently have a GT1000 and a GSXR1000.

Sounds like a Scrambler would fit in nicely with your other two bikes. You've got the rippin' liter sport bike, and exotic cafe racer. All you need is the Scrambler to complete my dream
stable of bikes. (Sorry, I forgot this is about you.)

Your problem seems to have been shared by many with those three machines. I've never ridden a Thruxton or a Scrambler, although I wanted to. I have always had an eye for the Bonneville so it did not matter. The best thing, of course, is to take each for a spin.

I agree. Buy something quite different from what you already have. The Scrambler would be the one I'd pick. The GT1000 is a cool retro standard bike, as is the T100. Too similar I think. Second choice would be the Thrux. I wouldn't personally call the GSR a cafe racer (too intense - too modern - a crotch rocket).

It all depends on what you're gonna do with it. The Scram is a great dual purpose. That's if you want to get off the paved road. It does have the 270 crank in it so it's got better low end.

The difference in the Thrux vs bonnie is seating. I'm sold on the bonnie cuz I like the ergos better than the thrux.

I think I d sell the lot, buy a 1050 Tiger.Save 2/3 of what your going to pay on running costs and have lots more room in the garage.

I think the Scrambler would be the most different from the bikes I have, hopefully the dealer will offer some test rides. I love the looks of all 3.

Wish I had the worry of what my 3rd bike would be lol

Think I'd have the Scrambler but I'd like to think you were drawn to your own conclusion in the presence of all of them.

the gt100 looks a lot like the thruxton and simliar to the t100. but this has been said before
