The TBS has the 885cc T3, which I think the regular Thunderbird had as
well but tuned differently. The TBS is more of a naked sportbike in a
standard styling, but then that styling thing is totally subjective. And
I think this may be the last year for the old T3 engine due to emissions
regs? Personally I didn't like the Speedmaster nor the America's styling
not to mention the name Speedmaster is a little bit assuming for a 790cc
twin cruiser! ;^{D
