Hello all from Houston, Texas
I've joined this forum to learn more about the Trophy. I am in the market for a sport tourer so I'm interested in everyones experience with the Trophy. I currently have a large cruiser and a Triumph Bonneville.
Howdy Sarge.
I also have a Bonneville (2011 T-100), and took delivery of Houston's first Trophy in January.
The change from the Bonnie is mostly what I expected. The surprising thing is how nimble the new bike feels. And yes - it's much faster than the Bonnie. Great wind protection, very comfortable, and all that. We bought it for two-up touring from the Canada house, and anticipate a great summer on it.
The bike is in the the first service with only fairly minor glitches, save a blown fork seal. Part's on order, and I expect it'll be squared away next week.
I can heartily recommend British USA in South Houston as a dealer. They're really great folks. I think they have a demo on the floor. Give it a ride and tell me what you think. (The sales guys are Jim and Eric. Sales Manager is Tammy) Tell them 'Hi' from David)
Tell you the truth, and aside for a couple of pretty minor issues, I'm completely blown away by this bike!
