I am trying to start the boss thinking now about this. Of course, now Triumph have waited until I have TWO kids in college to announce the new Trophy.

Now might be a good time to pickup a good Sprint GT at a good price....

I bought a new RT last year and am amazed at how similar the photos are to the BMW. I was having some remorse until I saw the weight. It's over 90 lbs heavier than the RT. Weight was a major factor in my choice of the RT although its difficult to detect except in a parking lot. Anyway, since its a Triumph, I probably would have bought one if it had been available last November but I don't regret buying the BMW. It's a great touring machine and a good change when not cruising on the TBA.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. The RT is a real nice machine and the Trophy should be too.
