Triumph Thunderbird Rated Best Cruiser of 2010


In Cycle World magazine's annual Ten Best Bikes review, the Triumph Thunderbird has been awarded Best Cruiser status for the second year in a row...

The T-Bird's pair of 4-inch pistons make more torque at 2630 rpm—95.1 ft.-lb.—than most cruiser motors make all day. But this bike's more than a pair of big jugs. It rumbles along smoothly, soulfully, while providing comfortably kicked-back ergonomics and suspension that actually suspends. Triumph being Triumph, it couldn't even keep from building a big cruiser that handles okay, too, and then wrapped it up in crisp styling, with a shapely no-seams gas tank, maximum chrome and minimal plastic.
