Expert opinion and recommendation

The Triumph Thunderbird LT is a formidable cruiser that excels in comfort and long-distance touring. Its massive build, coupled with a powerful 1699cc engine, makes it a joy to ride on open roads. The bikes plush ride quality, thanks to the Showa suspension setup, and the excellent grip from the Avon white-walled radial tyres, ensure a stable and comfortable journey even at high speeds. However, the windscreen can be a bit of a letdown, especially for taller riders, due to wind buffeting and visibility issues in wet conditions. The addition of ABS and premium-quality switchgear enhances safety and usability. While it may not have the same brand allure as Harley-Davidson, the Thunderbird LT offers a compelling package for those prioritizing comfort and performance.

Recent news and announcements

There has been no official word from Triumph on the discontinuation of the Thunderbird LT, but its absence from recent model year announcements suggests it may no longer be in production. I think this could be a sign that Triumph is focusing on other models in their lineup.

The Thunderbird LT came equipped with advanced technology for its time, including ABS, traction control, and a sophisticated instrument cluster.

In the past, Triumph highlighted the Thunderbird LT as a flagship model for long-distance touring, emphasizing its comfort, power, and storage capabilities.

Price

Pricing details and changes

In India, the Triumph Thunderbird LT was priced at around Rs 16.40 lakh ex-showroom in Delhi. When you factor in the on-road costs, including registration, insurance, and other charges, the price can escalate to approximately Rs 19-20 lakh, depending on the state and local taxes. Given its features and performance, the Thunderbird LT is competitively priced in the cruiser segment. However, the lack of certain premium features like hazard lamps or cruise control might make some buyers feel its not entirely worth the price, especially when compared to the brand value and additional features offered by competitors like Harley-Davidson.

Mileage

Fuel efficiency information

The mileage of the Triumph Thunderbird LT in India is respectable for a cruiser of its size. With a 22-litre fuel tank, you can expect a range of around 400 kilometres on a single tank, assuming an average fuel efficiency of about 18-20 kml. This makes it a viable option for long-distance touring, though the actual mileage may vary based on riding conditions and style. The low compression ratio of the engine also ensures it can run well on regular fuel available at most Indian fueling stations.
