Well, I agree with most of what the others say. It's rated at 69 hp, has plenty of go to match its handling. So far very reliable. The Thruxton has a lot of aftermarket support. It attracts a bunch of attention no matter where you go. 40+ mpg if you are gentle with the throttle, 30+ if not. After an hour or so I am ready to get off of it for a stretch. Most distance in one ride was 210 miles, my arse was beat. I use it for running around the lake country, bar hopping, etc. I probably will not spend any more money on it, in fact I have it listed for sale. For sale not because I don't like it, just because momma-bear says I should part with one of the toys. If it does not sell I will not be disappointed, I like it for what it is.
