New TFC price

[cootertwo]

I must admit, the touring model is a real beauty in my eyes. Shame they dropped the HP on those models. I know they can be tweaked back up, but why did they do it in the first place. Maybe they thought only old geezers would buy the touring, I dunno. Sometimes Triumph's thoughts are unpredictable.

I think the new TFC is much

My guess would be they figured it would be two up most of the times its road.

I don't know if it's related. But yesterday I learned that "baggers" in general are being restricted to comply with some USA legislation regarding crosswinds with luggage.

Discovered this when my mate with a Guzzi workshop had to explain it to a guy with the MGX21 Guzzi.
btw @mexican who I know has a soft spot for the MGX21 - If you get one; take the CF spoke covers off the front wheel - they are sails.

I don't get this 'ugly' thing.
Maria Callas for example had a horse face, but she exuded a rare beauty.
So too, the Rocket. ;-)

No where to get one here locally anymore, all good brands are abandoning Tulsa for some reason

Re Touring, someone once said there were no high speed tires, personally I suspect they knew about high speed weave, stock configuration I never experienced it, topped our around 110.

I love the Touring, especially tickled I got a blue one. I sure have put a lot of stuff and elbow grease into it. I also love the Classics. I was looking at those for around two years. I did not like the newer roadster because the foot pegs were too far back. But what I like about the older ones are 1) the 240 rear tire, 2) Dual gauges, one a tachometer, 3) the wheels, and 4) the power... whereas the Tourings were de-tuned.

The one I ended up with and kept an eye on for a season had a price drop at the dealer, so I grabbed it. But when I see the roadster and/or classics with the forward foot pads and all I get a bit jealous of those. Drives me nuts with knowing I'd never give up my Touring.
