If you are into retro, what could be more retro than an actual Triumph named a Thruxton complete with Norton tailpipes?
Are we beginning to see a repeat of the early 80's? A time when manufacturers had so overproduced various models that you were able to get two year old brand new bikes for next to nothing. Remember '81 GS1000s for sale in '84 for $2499? There seems to be a boom going on. Booms are always followed by busts.
I'd like to see it again. Maybe before long we'll be able to pick up slightly used bikes for next to diddlysquat again.
Especially if it'll bust the bubble of the stupid used Harley market.
