Iwent to the above today and checked out all the machines. Triumph had a pretty good showing. Saw and sat on the new Thruxton and after the Rocket it felt tiny. Wasn't overly impressed by the new Bonnies to be honest either - sorry for those of you that like it.

Alas, the dear Rocket on display wasn't in a prominent position and had bags fitted. As many of us have said, a disgrace for the world's largest capacity motorcycle and something that Triumph should be very proud of. It's as you all know superb!!

Saw a couple of custom Rockets,
 
Great pics, Blackthou. Thx for posting!

That Thruxton is talking to me and will be on my test ride agenda first thing come next Spring.
 
I sat on the Thruxton Phil and to be honest it felt very thin and tiny. Build quality of switches and dials looked cheaper and was disappointed but that's only my opinion. I did look good and there was a white one as well.
