Re: [ST] Thruxton 900



Man I'm 56 and was think'n the same thing. I also had the same thought about
the  front disk brake. I love that triumph logo on the tank.  Can you say
Cafe Racer.  Yeah.

It was featured in the last Torque magazine issue, on www.2wf.com, and now
on Triumph's web site.  Maybe it's just my age (I think a lot of us are
about my age, 56) but it pushed several buttons - positive buttons.  I've
never quite warmed to the new Bonneville, but this version makes me want
it!!!  Of course, I have yet to actually see one, or read of any road test.
I only wonder why they didn't put dual discs up front??  The extra 10mm
rotor diameter may be helpful, but I 've always thought dual discs looked
better.
