1500 Cruiser?

[wilbur-t]

Anyone seen any of the spy photos of the new 1500 America style cruiser? I saw one from a European Magazine cover. Looked like a Speedmaster with a radiator. I Took Lisa to test drive an America the other day, and I rode it also. A very nice handling bike, but man is it weak. I wonder when the 1500 will come out?

**** it? Spys using pocket/pen cams Can't the spymasters sprout for a telephoto Why are we paying the price for spy satellites, that can read Spaulding on your tennis ball, and we've not seen the Triumph 1500 yet.

What's the difference between a Harley and a Hoover?
Position of the dirt bag.

I hear that. I didn't think you could buy digital cameras with that low of resolution still... Shoot, those pics could be of a Bonneville America with leather bags..

Rags to riches.................

The day I buy an over priced, ad proferlated, biased motorcycle rag is the day I quit reading them for free at the grocery store while Amy shop's for food. You read one, you read them all. Just like car rags, atv rags, even **** rags.

Here is an "artist's rendering" of what they think it will look like...

I would bet that the engine is different.

I would bet that the engine is different.

I'd think so. That sure looks like a 790 vertical twin air cooled motor with a photoshop radiator tacked on

I heard one rumor that they were going to take the rocket engine, lop one cylinder off, and turn it sideways.

There are plenty of 1500 cc bikes out there - Harleys.

However, if they doubled the size of the parallel vertical twin, I might consider it if it weighed less than 600 lb. and had over 100 hp. The Rocket is a bit of a moose for me when I'm not rolling. Great power though.
