Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Triumph America 2011

Triumph America 2011

All in all, the America is a motorbike that goes straight to the heart for a reasonable price and doesn't just look pretty. For a motorbike of this class, braking and handling are somewhat unusual, but the lean angle clearance is rather sad, as is usual for this class of motorbike.

Bubbling sound

simple, transparent handling

pleasant engine.

Lean angle freedom restricted.
