Fuelling was virtually perfect all through the rev range (max 6000 rpm) with the original pipes but now isn't as perfect at low rpm with the V&H fitted, not to say it is poor, just not perfect.
The leather bags are very useful, although not able to accommodate a full face helmet, the waterproof inner bags are a nice touch. The engine makes a nice rumble and when you turn the throttle it's an instant response that pulls your arms back. For not even a single time in my entire 500kms ride, I found it to be minutely uncomfortable. Buy the Triumph Thunderbird LT if you genuinely plan to do long distance rides. The Brit bike’s engine is a 1699cc parallel twin rather than a V-twin.
The instrument cluster sits on the 22-litre tank, which sports speedometer, fuel level and shows ride data like trip meter, distance to empty and a clock. Well actually, it’s more like a murmur, if you expect a big cruiser to have a bassy exhaust note.Out on the open road, on a long winding one is where the Thunderbird LT truly comes into its element. You easily have a 225-240 mile range and can do that no problem because of the excellent ergonomics and seat. In the meantimes, an LT makes an awful lot of sense. Wheels are both 16-inchers, with a massive 180 section rear tyre.Astride the bike, the first thing you immediately feel is the weight. It is effective, has good bite and doesn’t feel wooden.Triumph Thunderbird LT First Ride ReviewThe Thunderbird LT is a long distance tourer right? Launched to take on the Harley Davidsons, especially in the American market, the Thunderbird LT focuses on the same aspects like other cruisers – comfort and long distance riding. The result is ‘As American as apple pie’. There was plenty of stopping power too, thanks to four-pot Nissin front calipers with ABS as standard.The LT is certainly a classy looking and nicely finished bike, and it works as well as you’d expect of a Hinckley Triumph, albeit one that is designed mainly for American consumption and weighs a hefty 380kg with fuel. The round headlamp is flanked by two auxiliary lights and below that, there are the turn blinkers.You should know that the Thunderbird LT is one of the safest cruiser in its segment as it’s equipped with anti-lock braking system (ABS) as standard.
The bike needs to be cleaned often to keep corrosion at bay and any metal treated to ACF 50 (other metal corrosion treatments are available) I have had some chrome problems, such as pitting and blistering but they were dealt with very efficiantly by Destination Triumph, Fareham from whom I purchased the bike.
The self cancelling indicators started playing up after about 3,000 miles, the fault being traced to a faulty speedo unit which again was replaced quickly under warranty.
Those two issues have been the only issues I have had in just over 12,000 miles.My favorite change is putting on the slip on (off road) pipes and getting the stage 1 download. The 4.5mm plexiglass screen is present and correct, but rises above average by being both instantly detachable without recourse to tools and available in two heights. It's a comfort bike, with no vibration at 85 mph. I’m 6’2” and I had to experience quite a bit of wind buffeting and it was the same case with my colleague, Omkar. At Rs 15,75,000 ex-showroom Delhi, it’s priced at par with the competition.And what’s also unique and harks at its classic design are the white-walled radial tyres – the first, Triumph says, for a motorcycle in the world – riding on wire-spoked rims. This liquid-cooled engine produces 93bhp at 5400rpm and develops peak torque of 151Nm at 3550rpm. OK, its residuals aren’t likely to be as good as H-D’s, but that’s still value, in anyone’s book.The LT uses the enlarged, 1699cc version of the Thunderbird’s familiar liquid-cooled parallel twin (the world’s largest, Triumph is proud to boast). very comfortable.always ride with the wife on back and copes really well 2 up handles brilliantly for such a heavy bike.
Generous chrome on the headlights, engine covers and the exhaust system together with large fenders and removable leather saddlebags make the bike look even bulkier than it is.Overtaking is a breeze, downshifting to fifth or fourth is adequate to get beyond slow moving traffic on the highway.
