With 93 oct gas around $4.30+ I figured it was time. Bought a 2011 triumph Thruxton 900. 45mpg is a pretty nice benefit. http://m1178.photobucket.com/albumview/albums/jtirwin27/IMAG0010.jpg.html?pbauth=1_uLE BonVPfaLdh1h3YMYz2QheLzh04FH5H jkqMPrHL%2FaGUMJortr84jDFpNlma M1A4eJzIGOZE%2BgXkamnQA5gv8i%2 B5Lw%2FZ7Q%2B%2BtxqNgwFQKx3%2F ktZ%2FE8jHy82X8unbSAACnm8Te8%2 FK4VC7QETwYb3iE1y4hsZwliIxLWiZ 6gxMr0%3D

45 MPG? Is that in town? I would have thought much higher highway MPG. My 2004 Victory gets 42+ on the highway. Those Triumphs are sweet bikes. Too bad they are too small for my ginormous frame.

Sweet, I'd love to have a bike, but other than fun I have no need for one. Plus you can use them 5-6 months a year here.

I ride year round. Good winter gear makes the diff. It's 45 riding hard. High rev v-twin. Better than 14/19 my mm gets lol

Thruxtons are very nice bikes. If I could tolerate the leaned over style of riding Id own one, they are great looking bikes.

You've got a real collector's item there! Most Triumphs are parallel twins! ;)
I LOVE THE THRUXTON!!!! always wanted one... ended up getting a night rod special and selling it because it just sat in the garage.
Visit Triumphrat.net and check out all those nutjobs over there...
Your pic doesnt work but a set of British Customs Predators make the bike sound like it should and an airbox delete kit will wake it up ;)

I'm sure your a safe rider..... just look out for the other jackwagons you have to share the road with!
