So I was in edmonton this weekend and stopped by Echo cycle to look at the triumphs in person(no dealer in saskatoon).
Oh my god is the thruxton every sexy. Looks so much nicer in person. Sat on it and fell in love.
The seating position is not as leaned forward as I though and it seemed to fell real nice. what a beautiful bike. Now i'm drooling uncontrolably and plotting ways to "aquire" enoght money to purchase one.
Just thought I'd share!

Yeah, it's definitely a nice bike. My friend plans on getting one 'cause it reminds him of his old kz400 that he loved so much; but has considerably more power.

That is a beautiful bike. I sat on one a few weeks back when I was out looking at Ducatis, and I can confirm that it has a fantastic fit and finish. It is actually more agressive than I was expecting, but it wasn't too bad.
Just sitting on it screamed "fun"! I would love to take one for a spin.

Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.
