2003 THUNDERBIRD

Retro styling is the backdrop for the Thunderbird’s thoroughly modern British engineering package. A bike designed to let the rider orchestrate the pace of proceedings from brisk early Sunday ride outs to meandering homecomings after a day laden with memories.

Form and function meet in harmony – Its strong three-cylinder engine, six-speed gearbox, modern brakes, plush suspension and traditional riding position taking you effortlessly where your leisure time dictates.

Resplendent in a choice of lustrous colors, with chrome highlighting its twin silencers, engine covers, headlamp surround and tank badge, the Thunderbird cuts a dash though the imagination just as surely as it indulges the senses.
