Best Motorcycle Ever?

Steve Atlas of Cycle News, as far as I know no relation to Charles, calls the new Tiger 800 the best adventure touring motorcycle he's ever ridden, and one of the best motorcycles he's ever ridden, period.

Don't know about the new Tigers,
but I sure wanted to take that new scrambler for a ride today while I was at the dealers...

The Tiger I rode made me feel like I was going to tip over forward if I stopped too fast.

A fellow Captain is coming from Denmark to visit San Fransisco at the end of the week, we are going to hook up for a couple of days and I'm going to show him around, he was unable to rent a Rocket so he rented the Scrambler instead, I'm looking forward to giving it a spin

Those little Bonnie's are fun, they make you feel like you're riding on the beach in shorts and sandals.

Had a Bonnie as a loaner from the dealer not long ago and loved it. Just plain fun. Felt tiny though.

In a word - THRUXTON. Felt bicycle narrow and just begged to be tossed around. I haven't tried the new Tiger so I'll reserve some leeway (or is that Lee's way?).

Triumph has a good selection of bikes for sure.
Not locked into one style, like h-d.
just big an ugle with different chrome or paint.
We actually can get pretty close to whatever we want
and still remain brand loyal..
I like that myself..

27 different models..a screw for every nut..my R3T is in for the 30000 mile service and I waited 2 hours at the dealer for ride home and sat on just about all the bikes..my favorite still is the Rocket but the little Bonnys' were cute..when I get too old to rassle that R3T,I see a Black/White T-100 in my garage!!
