Saw this, hopped on google, ended up finding the new bobber black- very pretty bike.

Note- do not type in triumph.com, especially with the wife nearby. Smile

104whp / 75wtq ... for now.

LOL (probably a little specific, but whatever you can do to show the riding position)
Hah! I think I can do that Smile My wife is about that height exactly...she's out of town until this weekend, but I'll get a shot of her sitting on the Speedmaster soon and post it. She already sat on it once and proclaimed it to be perfect for her...even started talking about trading in her beloved custom Indian Scout for one. (I know she won't really do that...but she was jealous that her Scout lacks ABS, cruise control, traction control, fuel gauge...)

Awesome. And good to know that she's enjoying her Scout as that is my wife's other pick for a replacement of her CTX. Interestingly, she also likes the BMW1200GS and the Triumph Tiger 800 in their lowered versions. Different ends of the motorcycle spectrum, to be sure. LOL.
