Triumph Thunderbird Commander 2014

Triumph Thunderbird Commander 2014

The Triumph Thunderbird Commander can't keep up with the performance of the Ducati Diavel, but it surprises even more than the Italian with its agile performance. It's amazing how quickly you can zip around the bends in comparative stability despite the dragging running boards. When the going gets really tight, the Diavel is no longer any fun. In terms of looks, it goes the classic route with all its chrome and holds the flag high for the typical cruiser. In any case, we wouldn't want to miss either the Ducati Diavel or the Triumph Thunderbird Commander in the wide-ranging motorbike world!

Typical and classy cruiser look with lots of chrome

parallel twin with enormous torque

comfortable seating position
