    hi - just joined the forum having brought a 1700 Thunderbird last August. Having chrome flaking and wheel corrosion issues which I am trying to resolve with Triumph dealer - but still riding with a smile on my face!

    Hard to get used to no protection, having come from the protection a Goldwing gives you to flycatching on the Commander :)

    couldnt get an all black one - they searched all over Europe apparently for me - have the black with grey piping which I think sets it off quite nicely :)

    Welcome from another new member. I have a 2014 T-Bird Commander in the same colors. You'll love the bike, it's such a pleasure to drive. I thought I had pits on my real wheel, but now I'm starting to wonder. I spent a couple of hours using a meal polish and got rid of most of it, but couldn't get the last little bit. Check out this thread and see if it looks like your problem.
