I have to agree! the Trumpys have a certain pizazz about them! My boss rides a Trumpy sprint and might I add.......VERY NICE PIECE OF MACHINERY! [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by guitardude from Thursday, October 16, 2008 1:12:37 PM)

Wow! Thanks to all of you for the cool comments ,I truly appreciate them.
The Trophy is a 1200cc inline four cylinder,it was discontinued in 2003,but there are rumors of a replacement in the works. Triumph called this color Sunset Red,but most everyone else calls it Maroon!!
The Rocket 3`s are a beast,but handle better than any 2.3 (no mis-type there) liter motorcycle should be allowed. The Thunderbirds are great,I have ridden one before. This is my 3rd Triumph,I had 2 Sprint ST`s before this.
The Daytona`s for 09 are going to be even better than the previous models with a host of refinements aimed at the racetrack. They should be hiting the dealers about now.
The Bonneville`s are something that I was urprised that Triumph didn`t bring back when they first got back into biz back around 1990,very cool bikes,nothing quite like a new retro model .
like I said in the post ,it is a freight train rolling,amazingly stable at any speed and handles very well for a touring bike. It may not be the most beautiful or the coolest bike out there,but it does what it should in and then some!!!!
