Now, in the last 3 weeks, I have seen 3 different Storms, and 1 Thunderbird LT. I guess those two models must be selling well. Has anyone else noticed more Birds on the road?

My buddy rides a 1200 Sportster and I'm always taking the piss about him buying a HD to be different (when there's usually 100"s of HD's around) but this w/end we saw 3 TB's, 2 R3's and several Speed/Street triples on the way there as well as at least 1/2 a doz various Triumphs coming through while having the coffee....
and hardly any HD's !!
If fact more Guzzie's, Wings and Beemers....... maybe as the bottoms fallen out of the FiFO mining the HD's are now all for sale...!!
| Colin Chapman once said: "If you add horsepower you'll be quick on the straight,...but if you remove weight you'll be quicker everywhere.." ....so why in hell did I buy a Thunderbird...!!!
