Undoubtedly a great bike and show piece for keeps! My first look at the Thunderbird reminded me of yester years and the luxury of owning a cruiser bike and yes, I did own the twin spark from 2008 to 2012, it did give me a royal high on most of the rides. My350 CC Thunderbird was black in color with easy riding seats for two and a sound of a jet plane when on the run.Its smooth self start and butter like slide gear shifting made this bike a roar from behind when on the roads -I am talking less traffic and Noida -Delhi - DND fly over roadways that made my ride a grueling experience mingled with pleasure and joy! I sometimes took the bird along with me on trips not too far away, places like Lansdown, Barielly and even manali was a cakewalk for the bike and yeah, the ride was as usual smooth -Sometimes the engine would heat up for no reason but a little torque on the highway would ease the bird to cool its wings .All in all a bike that makes memories last forever. The tin spark embellishment was a master piece wherein the bike seldom failed in its en devour to deliver -A bikers riding experience must begin here!
