Mozilla thunderbird review 2018 plus#
I regularly get 50 plus mile per gallon, the furthest on a tank was 281 miles with another 30 before getting off and pushing, not that I could have pushed it more than a couple of hundred yards due to it's weight. The longest in a day was 780 miles, with the next day covering 650 miles, the reason I had to stop was because I had arrived. The greatest feature of the Lt is it's ability to cover vast distances in comfort and with the standard screen, without fatigue. TRIUMPH THUNDERBIRD 1700 LT for sale with MCN Meanwhile, Road King style has dictated a tank-mounted console derived from that of the standard Thunderbird which includes analogue-style speedo incorporating LCD fuel gauge, twin trips, odo and multi-function clock scrollable via a button on the right bar. These, too, along with the whole pillion seat and standard ‘sissy’ bar, are all quickly detachable (although tools are this time required) to leave the LT looking clean (no bracketry is left exposed), mean and handsomely pared down. The all-important ‘bags’ are there, too, but exceed expectations by being both genuine 2.5mm leather, containing waterproof, removeable inner bags as standard and by housing a 12v accessory socket and useful inner pockets for coins, phone etc. 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. More impressive still is the amount of effort and attention to detail Triumph has given the rest of the LT’s ‘bagger experience’.
