The first year of the new Triumph Speedmaster back in 2003 was such a bike. I had back surgery in 2009 and could not ride for a few years, so I sold her not to just let her sit in my garage and be neglected.

Note: Air/oil cooled just like our beloved CB1100's.

That’s a beautiful bike! Was the seating posture upright like most UJM’s or was it more laid back like a Harley? The big footrests look comfy.

Thanks! It was more laid back like a cruiser, hence the reason for the really nice floorboards. They came free when I bought this bike new; and I got a $250 coupon from Triumph for use on the brand only. They actually installed them for free too a couple months after I got the bike when the coupon came in the mail!
