Cool looking bike. Finally a new bike with a normal looking exhaust.

No specs yet, supposed to be hitting dealers sometime next year.

Wow, I think that's about twice the displacement of the current parallel twin. If that has an old school Triumph firing order (360 degree crank) that thing is gonna be a shaker...

Nice looking bike.

Needs a bigger headlight or some chrome to fill the space behind it though.

That's a big parallel twin! Nice looking bike. In the first pic it looks like it borrowed some styling cues from the VTX.

if it was a thumper I'd have the stroke a check right away

No way. Engine not large enough.

I mentioned above that the T-bird shares some styling cues with the VTX. It makes sense after reading this interview with the designer (who previously worked with Honda...on the VTX): http://www.motorcycle.com/manufactur...ner-88328.html
