		<div class="rating_value"><img title="4.50" src="http://www.motorcycle.com/specs/sites/mot/images/icons/icon-overall-full.gif" /><img title="4.50" src="http://www.motorcycle.com/specs/sites/mot/images/icons/icon-overall-full.gif" /><img title="4.50" src="http://www.motorcycle.com/specs/sites/mot/images/icons/icon-overall-full.gif" /><img title="4.50" src="http://www.motorcycle.com/specs/sites/mot/images/icons/icon-overall-full.gif" /><img title="4.50" src="http://www.motorcycle.com/specs/sites/mot/images/icons/icon-overall-half.gif" /></div>   

		I bought my 2009 Thuxton after specifically waiting for the fuel injection system. Yes, this is the first EFI Thruxton (and Bonneville), but Triumph has had the same EFI on their Speed America for years, lending to a reliable system without &quot;first year&quot; quirks. The Thruxton is not the fast<span class="simple_review_box" >...</span><span class="expand_review_box" style="display:none;">est, but most people buy it to ride on legal streets and highways. 140mph is great on track days, but if you want that kind of speed, you need to look at the Daytona 675. The triumph is wind in hair- bugs in teeth fun and gives me a feeling of going back thru time to another era where the journey could be more fun than the destination. Besides, the whole reason bikes became popular in the beginning was individualism... and with so many Harleys on the road that look the same, why not try something different?</span>

The bike is more than competent for normal street use, and with the bars raised, you can ride long distances relative<span class="simple_review_box" >...</span><span class="expand_review_box" style="display:none;">ly comfortably.<br />
<br />
I can commute 120 miles a day on just under 3 gallons of fuel. I have not tried to see how far a tank of gas will last; I am happy with the fuel range.<br />
<br />
The bike cruises 80mph with out any issues. Super fun, I have 900 miles on my 2009 Thruxton already.</span>
