The [[Triumph]] twins enjoyed immense popularity in the U.S. their largest market, but customers wanted "more cubes". Triumph's answer was the 650 Thunderbird, a 40 cubic inch [[motorcycle]]. Similar in design to the 500's, the Thunderbird had more low and midrange power and was rugged enough to be "hot rodded" yet still reliable. This bike was immortalized when Marlon Brando, star of the movie "The Wild One" rode a T'Bird. | |||
