Description

This 2012 Triumph Thunderbird 1700 Custom Cruiser delivers a relaxed, planted ride thanks to its 1,699/1700cc parallel-twin and smooth six-speed gearbox. With only 2,850 miles it's remarkably fresh; the weight and low 700mm seat height give confidence at town speeds while the strong mid-range makes easy progress on open roads.

Finished in Matte Graphite with attractive chrome and black detailing, the bike balances classic cruiser presence with modern components like Showa suspension and ABS. It's practical enough for longer outings with a 22-litre tank and belt final drive, and the recent service, new Metzeler tyres and forthcoming MOT mean it's ready to enjoy.
