It will come here, sure, it has to, as part of the new model range. I've never liked the 2011 onwards models, frame geometry too modern, and those headlights never did anything for me. The best model IMHO was the 08-10 model, everything sorted, round headlights, Brembos, steel tank etc. I also like the old 955i's.

I rode one of the first T595's (Strontium Yellow: great colour by the way) in Australia when the factory was bringing out the newly remodeled lines. I have always liked the triples since that very day, but I'm not a huge fan of the British streetfighter look, though I know that the market is there.

Yes, indeed, IMHO the one to have is the old Thunderbird Sport, carbs, retro look, sort of, bikini fairing, lovely tank and paint schemes, great aftermarket pipes, hugely over engineered, bullet proof.

Definitely over engineered and in good way, as a buddy had pondered using the 1200cc engine in a dragbike chassis.
