This is a partial review of the 2016 Triumph Thurxton in Cycle world 3-16
It’s a rewarding ride, but not an intimidating one. The experience has characteristics of multiple other bikes, ones that had heaps of character and could handle, such as the Ducati 900 Supersport or Sport Classics, H-D XR1200, and even Triumph’s old Thunderbird Sport–there’s even some Buell tossed in there. These are all very divergent bikes; the new Thruxton is especially difficult to pin down.
