==2011 Triumph Thunderbird Storm==

If you thought the 2010 Thunderbird was a tough bike, prepare to meet its really tough cousin, the Thunderbird Storm. Building on the proven platform and taking the heritage one step further into the realm of really mean bikes, the Storm brings in a blacked out livery which is both great-looking and a tad menacing.
 
A hooligan straight bar complements the dual reflector headlights for an even more aggressive look, while the tank-mounted instrument cluster keeps the front end slender and clean. And with tremendous torque readily available right off idle, the 2010 Thunderbird Storm is even more fun.
 
 
==2013 Triumph Thunderbird Storm==
[[File:triumph-thunderbird-1600-2013-2013-4.jpg|600px|2013 Triumph Thunderbird Storm]]
[[File:triumph-thunderbird-1600-2013-2013-3.jpg|600px|2013 Triumph Thunderbird Storm]]
[[File:triumph-thunderbird-1600-2013-2013-2.jpg|600px|2013 Triumph Thunderbird Storm]]
[[File:triumph-thunderbird-1600-2013-2013-1.jpg|600px|2013 Triumph Thunderbird Storm]]
[[File:triumph-thunderbird-1600-2013-2013-0.jpg|600px|2013 Triumph Thunderbird Storm]]
 
A might derivative from the acclaimed Thunderbird, the 2012 Triumph Thunderbird Storm is all about mean roadster design. Retaining the basic design cues of the base model, the Thunderbird Storm brings in a more aggressive stance, menacing dual headlights in the vein of the Rocket III and Speed triple, more revving power and a more sober livery are setting this bike apart.
 
And with the blackened engine cases, fork lowers and rear shocks, the 2012 Thunderbird Storm is a no-frills road aggression machine for those in search of a pure, zero-bling, all-out attitude ride.
 
 
==2015 Triumph Thunderbird Storm==
[[File:triumph-thunderbird-1600-2015-2015-4.jpg|600px|2015 Triumph Thunderbird Storm]]
[[File:triumph-thunderbird-1600-2015-2015-3.jpg|600px|2015 Triumph Thunderbird Storm]]
[[File:triumph-thunderbird-1600-2015-2015-2.jpg|600px|2015 Triumph Thunderbird Storm]]
[[File:triumph-thunderbird-1600-2015-2015-1.jpg|600px|2015 Triumph Thunderbird Storm]]
[[File:triumph-thunderbird-1600-2015-2015-0.jpg|600px|2015 Triumph Thunderbird Storm]]
 
Taking the already powerful Thunderbird, and enlarging its bore to 107mm, the 2015 MY Thunderbird Storm now produces 98 horsepower and a whopping 156 Nm, in a more dark, stealthy package. The British engineers' main focus was the classic cruiser appearance, and they nailed it. For example, they hid modern pieces like the radiator between the frame downtubes and the twin exhaust headers, giving the impression of an air-cooled engine.
 
Standard ABS and a comprehensive instrument cluster powered by an on-board computer, conveniently located on the fuel-tank are the only obvious hints that let you know that this is not a restored 60's cruiser.
