Alphonsus do you have any numbers to back that up or is that just supposition? I have never seen a Thruxton or 9T on the road, but I have seen 1/2 doz CB's.
Ferret, the inner city boys love those bikes (9T and Thruxtons) and I see a number of them on a regular basis. Some standard, but most Caféd. I have never seen a CB in the wild in Sydney. Different strokes for different folks I guess.
Cheers mate.

They do seem to love them. When we did the Distinguished Gentleman's Ride this year though probably a third of the bikes (30/90) were Bonevilles or Thruxtons. Triumph held that neo-classic category alone for so long that I think they're going to be pretty hard to dethrone.
