Beautiful bike, also love the paint job just wish there was a closer look. I am riding a Sport Touring and was looking at going back to a cruiser, I think I have found that bike. I took a test ride on the 1600, before I finished the ride, I knew I wanted this bike. Keep up the good work Triumph.,The headlining option on the new Trumpet, however, is the 1700cc big bore kit, which bumps displacement up 100cc with a corresponding jump in claimed horsepower (85-100 hp) and torque (108-115 lb-ft). The kit, which is EPA and CARB compliant, costs $899, with riders also paying for the approximate day’s worth of installation labor at a Triumph dealer. Ride the 1700 and the difference is palpable, the Bird churning out more grunt, in particular while rolling out the throttle in the higher gears.Triumph is introducing a T-Bird more equipped for the long haul. The 2010 Thunderbird SE comes with leather saddlebags, a quick detach touring windshield with wind deflectors, a touring seat, ABS as standard equipment, and a quick detach passenger back rest with luggage rack. Rider and passenger also get floorboards, while the bike gets sporty new Carnival Red paint. That’s a lot of goodies for an extra $2,500 seeing as how the base price on the standard 2010 Triumph Thunderbird is $12,499.
