Motorcycle specifications Triumph1700 Thunderbird Commander 2015 A road trip with James

Cruiser

some characters live in fiction, some motorcycles ride in expression. A little jolt could bring them together. After the dark Storm, Triumph offers a majestic variation on the Thunderbird: the 1700 Commander. This imposing cruiser imposes a strong presence with its twin headlamps and muscular 1699 cm3 in-line twin. With its 94 hp and over 15 mkg, this block moves this vast cruiser in style.

more flashy and with a more relaxed riding position than the Storm, the Commander ensures comfort with a dual-density seat backed by ergonomics more suited to cruising. The chassis has been slightly modified to accommodate the new 140/75 front and 200/45 rear tires. American-style dimensions are to be found everywhere: a 47 mm covered fork, three 310 mm brake discs, almost 2.5 m in length, filled with 348 kilos of steel and chrome. If the Commander wanted to mess with the Harley Fat Boy, he wouldn't have it any other way.

French Model 2015
My second bike, for conjugal outings (the other is a Ducati...). Very pleasant, safe, excellent braking despite the weight. (Relatively) easy to handle, you can pick up the pace on winding roads thanks to amazing ground clearance for a custom. Much less of an "enclume" than the Harley Fat Boy I tried out. Still a great pleasure to ride, even if you have to avoid the city. Rating : 4/5
I'm on my 4th Harley and the last one was a fat boy special.

The legend is there, but the owners are too bof
The dealers are having a ball.

I'm buying a triumph thunderbird commander and hope to rediscover the biker spirit.
