The late Thunderbird 1600 is the relaxed, British-flavoured cruiser in its final form, with ABS standard, cast five-spoke wheels, a chromed 2-into-1-into-2 exhaust and a tank-top instrument pod. Its twin-spine frame, low seat and 22 litre tank suit easy highway cruising. Revised dimensions and a 1615 mm wheelbase set it apart from the 2009-2014 spec sheets.
