I'm not at all desperate to sell it, but I'm not going to sweat a couple hundred bucks either. I keep the bike under a tarp at my office in Orange - right where the 22 meets the 55 (very close to the 5, the 57, and not far from the 91 or the 405). ![]() Honestly, that About me:I'm rapidly responsive to texts. Look closely at the final few photos to get a sense of what I mean. Essentially the rear lift stand pegs have some scratches fro normal use, there's some nearly unnoticeable scratches on the tank, and the chain has some minor corrosion.

Doing the speed limit is very hard on a Triple because it does 65 in first gear and is nimble enough to slide a knee at practically any speed. Japanese bikes are great don't get me wrong, but there is a unique pride of ownership that I feel with having this English Beast. Why I'm selling it:This is the most beautiful object that I've ever owned. Harley Davidson, Cruiser, Bonneville, Tiger, T-Bird, tbird, t bird, Thunder Bird, standard Excellently in everything but racing and off-road riding of course. ![]() See full specs on the Thunderbirds here: See rider ratings for them below. Test rides with moto endorsement and cash in hand only. I'd like to get around $3850 for it, but I'm open to reasonable offers. I'm only selling because my need for speed prompted me to buy something whose speedo goes over 200, and I can't really justify being a two-bike man right now. Probably too heavy and powerful for a beginner bike, but depends on the rider. Top speed is about 115-120 mph without the luggage. Engine is that classic Triumph triple design. Riding position is standard and neutral-not crouched over or splayed out. The Thunderbirds are known for reliability, comfort, looks, and street performance. Horn is rather quiet and I'd recommend replacing with something louder. I added a center stand for convenient maintenance and a custom-fabricated powder-coated luggage rack for two big hard panniers and a luggage rack.
