2010 Triumph 1600 Thunderbird

Stored for 4 years in climate controlled garage.
2 owners, SW Florida bike.
The very first Triumph Thunderbird before it was reborn with a 885cc triple cylinder in 1995.
By 2009 it was time for Triumph to add a rumbling, thunderous cruiser to the market; one that had much more grunt than those from the parallel twin America’s and Speedmaster’s, but more usable and attractive to a wider audience than the huge Rocket 3.
That offering would once again take the Thunderbird namesake and the Triumph Thunderbird 1600 was introducedTriumph Motorcycles are one of the very few manufacturers to continuously produce cruisers without bowing to the pressure of using a V twin engine. For that we have to give them credit as let’s face it, the lack of a V twin will certainly prevent some very traditional cruiser riders from considering a Triumph. I don’t think Triumph care too much as they continue to produce unconventional cruisers and the public continue to buy them.
