TUSA had a Bonnie Black at Mid-Ohio with the EFI.
The Triumph guy said it ran just like the carb'd version, except there was no cold-start procedure (no 'choke'). He said it appeared to get better fuel economy, but he didn't have any numbers yet.

Not fake carbs..throttlebody fuel injectors..
Since they're going that route they should pattern them after Amal Concentrics and have a small tank of Blendzal or Castrol R that's trickled in to the fuel stream, maybe a small puff of smoke from under the seat now and then... Kidding, I think new Trumpies are the bees knees

Ah who cares? The motor looks like a big lump that was copied from the CM400T Honda. Yawn. About as fast too. Tweet tweet tweet goes the exhaust pipes...what a sad ending to a classic design.

awww they're fun bikes and they have a great deal of potential and aftermarket support. I enjoyed the two I owned a great deal, if I was of a smaller stature I'd still have my T100.
