If ya can read that second name V2D3 your eyes are doing better than mine!Says so on his jacket and wind screen.
Agreed Clive, although the Thruxton’s no ugly duckling!You see I'm not the only one a bit unconvinced by this blacked-out obsession. A very subtle and nice customisation; the ugly-duckling Thruxton can be hugely improved with some shiny bits. Ref again the Unikat Thruxton.
Might as well stir it up (had a steroid shot yesterday so hard to keep my mouth shut): I like motorcycles that look like motorcycles, not bugs! Classic Norton (especially Combats), Classic Triumphs (especially unit construction), some Modern Triumphs (not the bugs), Classic BSAs all work for me. There are bunch more Classic Bikes that work and quite a few modern.I’d love to thrash this beauty around the nearest race track - looks like awesome fun!
Except that feeling I suspect that you get, when some smart-ass comes screaming past you on half the bike at twice the speed!
Do love that Cafe Racer styling though!

My blacked out triumphs are less effort to keep clean than the ones with chrome have been.You see I'm not the only one a bit unconvinced by this blacked-out obsession.

You need to get this while it’s available for sale. As you know only 750 were available world wide. Would look great next to your TFC R3I have recently (ish) found myself looking more and more favourably on the Thruxton.
Especially now they are more blacked out !
In particular, the TFC version. I have another TFC model and really do like the attention to detail that Triumph lavished upon them.
The TFC Thrux is looking more and more tempting.
Hopefully it’ll pass
