    I am new to triumphs, but have always been aware of this great product'. My 1700 is what I think they call "Black Cherry" It is beautiful, runs and rides great. I am looking forward to many years of riding pleasure on this bike.

    Hey fellers, I researched and found the color name for my Thunderbird. It is Phantom Red Haze!

    Phantom Red Haze is really special. If you walk up to the motorcycle from behind, it looks black. If you walk up to the motorcycle from the side it is a beautiful dark red color. It was a special paint for the introduction of the Thunderbird 1700 ABS in 2010.
    Thanks for the welcome, thankyouverymuch!
