hi.. I would say its one of the best tourers available.. Its not that great a handler but it cruises like anything. If you need a tourer, thunderbird is the bike. Maintenance problem is there but not like old bullets. Go with your heart, do as it says.. Ride safe...

Hello Ananth.... i am planning to buy a new TBTS.... can u help me out.... i was told by a lot of ppl that TBTS would be like buying an elephant - too much maintainance cost and time required. Also it breaks down frequently and u are left dragging 180 kgs of dead load. How true is all of this?? do reply
