Look again. I had to upload it myself because the server it was on apparently has too little bandwidth and shuts it off after a certain number of views.

Daz, just saw your post on BA.

Sorry, this is not my cup of tea.
If Triumph is going to make a big CC cruiser I can only hope it will look more like a twin Speedmaster. With belt or shaft drive, and fuel injection. Maybe.

Or a vertical quad perhaps?

From that angle, it looks like it could be a 07 rocketrident?

Odd. I would have thought more people would like it but no one so far at BA nor you care for it. Yet everyone seems to like the classic triples, and i see a VERY strong resemblence. In fact, bodywork aside they like almost the same. I bet if i post it in the classic triples forum i get the opposite responce. in fact, i think i'll try that and see what reaction i get there. I've never cared much for 3 on a side pipes or shaft, but other than that i really like it.

It looks pretty interesting. I like the pipes on one side. The front brake looks to be massive.
