Re: [emrat:3104] Thunderbird or not

I wish that I could have both. I was thinking of when my wife rides, the comfort of the tbird. I like the tbird look, sound, and low end torque. I just don't want to regret not having my bonneville se. I do like the 6 speed on the tbird for highway riding. My bonneville runs around 5000 rpm when going 85 mph. I guess that is fine since the redline is 8000 rpm. What is a 2012 bonneville se worth? Thanks for your input with this.

Thunderbird handles well but is a completely different bike. The bonneville is much more nimble and has better clearance in the twisties. The thunderbird is the best handling cruiser I have ridden. As for tge power, it has been debated on trat whether the tbird is any faster than the bonneville. The tbird has a significant amount of weight when compared the bonneville.

The obvious decision would be to keep the bonneville and buy the tbird.
