That is gorgeous.  Not as good looking as the old Norton's, but I would be a happy camper with that.  I miss the ole thump-thump of my Norton.  Does this new Triumph thump?

I'm picking it up Saturday I had a 500$ deposit saying HOLD MY BIKE they sell out across the country in a heartbeat.  I am probably the first person on the east coast to have a 2010 so early.  Wooooooo and with the right pipe setup i'm sure it will THUMP. ;)

That is a NEW bike?

I was not aware they made little scooters like that anymore.

PS Something wrong with that pic.... no oil on the ground under the engine.  :aok

I honestly didn't know anyone was making bikes that looked like the old honda 550s and 750s.

I have a friend that works on all types of bikes and four wheelers. He has an old triumph in his shop now that belongs to a friend of his. It has won several awards at bike shows... all original too. He keeps a small pan under it as they all leak a little.

I like that Triumph and that red Ducati bike. Both are good in their own way but that Triumph reminds me of one of my first bikes that was an old one that my dad bought me when I was 14 and we worked on that bike for DAYS just to get it right. I traded it for an XR200 dirt bike back in 1987...worst mistake I have ever made.
