They even did a review on it!

...and several YouTubes on it:

| | Posted : 26 Oct 2017 - 01:44 Post title : Re: 2018 Tbirds (Re: davetac1) | | | Here's what I know tmc has in the past listed some questionable information, in fact wrong information. I spoke in length with my dealer two weeks ago who attended the dealer meeting in DC. He flat out told me Triumph presented their entire lineup and Triumph Corp said. " This is our full 2018 lineup" the 675, America, Thunderbirds are gone. Only the Rocket remained for 2018. Now I realize people don't want to accept that but it's the same information that has been rumoured for almost a year. I have a solid relationship with my dealer and have no reason not to believe him. The only outside possibly he would be wrong would be if Triumph Corp mislead every dealer at those meetings

| | Posted : 26 Oct 2017 - 04:21 Post title : Re: 2018 Tbirds (Re: Hornet) | | | I realize this subject was discussed not too long ago and I think I started one of those treads.But,if they're not making em anymore,why are they STILL be advertised on different websites for the 2018 model production year?? That's what I don't get. Usually when something is discontinued,it disappears.Oh well,I guess when something sounds to good to be true,it usually is.So I guess I'll just let it die. And I thank you gentlemen for your responses !!
