Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Triumph America 2017

Triumph America 2017

All in all, the America is a motorbike that goes straight to the heart for a reasonable price and doesn't just look pretty. For a motorbike of this class, braking and handling are somewhat unusual, but the lean angle clearance is rather sad, as is usual for this class of motorbike.

Bubbling sound

simple, transparent handling

pleasant engine.

Lean angle freedom restricted.

Triumph Thunderbird LT 2017

Triumph Thunderbird LT 2017

It was to be expected that the LT would not disappoint after the convincing performance of the Commander. What's more, the blue and white paintwork is already convincing at the car park; something for the history books. And once the windshield, the sissy bar, the pillion and the panniers have been removed, you're done for. Fuck big enduros!

Solid, quality workmanship

comfortable, relaxed seating position.

Windshield could easily be perceived as annoying, depending on how you feel.
