Triumph is a motorcycle company that is ‘firing on all cylinders’ right now. They were either fortunate enough to have the products available or management foresight or both to take advantage of the retro craze that’s currently in full swing. Nice looking bike!

Triumph was always "retro-ready".

The 3.8 gal tank would be a draw back. Worth the $12k asking price is the big issue because of the resell value drop off that occurred with the
CB1100. I might be more inclined to find a low mileage 2016-17 Street Twin for around $6k if I wanted to experience a Triumph. Have always owned strictly Japanese machines.
