I have read several times in the past if an HD rider couldn't have a HD then he would pick:
Triumph
Moto Guzzi
BMW
Ducati

I have never seen this forum agree on anything as much as we agree on Triumph's, go figure. I think we feel similar on Duc's as well.

I personally like my 750 twin. But as you say (Lucas the inventor of darkness) The new don't have the look. I have always received the nod from and usually a chat when I ride it.

Wow, twisted springer, K-Q seat, six-bend pullbacks, rectangular headlight, hardtail, peanut tank...a real 1970's chop. I do like the TT pipes...
I had a similar one years ago, the sissybar was quite a bit higher though, lol.
It was a rat, but it could haul *** for a 650 cc bike with asoup can carb (monoblock).

Took a couple cans of flat-black to fix that. If I remember correctly, it weighed in under 300 lbs.
Good thing, too, considering no front brake, and Triumph's infamous drum-and-shoes on the rear. No tailgating on that bike, lol. I used to ride with a guy who had a Kawasomething 750, he was surprised I could keep up. That bike was a ton of fun.
