You gotta' be sh*ttin' me. Triumph has such a long and storied history of sporty 360 degree twins and triples why the hell do they insist on copying Harley or Harley style cruisers. Here's a clue, how about a 1600cc twin that looks like a beefed up version of a T100? well screw 'em, If I want a Harley that's what I'll buy not a copy cat sans the vtwin (but with a V twin power pulse) engine.
Triumph has hit a solid home run with the Bonneville and triples, even the original Hinckley Legend, Thunderbird or Trident would look good built around this engine. The development cost of this model would have been better spent on a Trophy replacement as competition for the 1400 Conk and FJR...then at least I would have something to think about buying.
