Most people commenting on this thread don't even own one.[/QUOTE]

Because we want to be different

Are they not the run-out model before the newest improved versions are released with the TB moniker used to make them more appealing to shift stock ?

Wot he satd!

 

[rattler]

Makes me laugh as I read through the posts, why when talking about their bikes do owners of triple black bikes have to tell us constantly that it's a black bike? its not just a GSA LC anymore it's now a GSA TB LC

Come on let me have it you TB owners!!!

Yeah who the f*ck wants one anyhow common as muck

Black - the colour associated with badassity.

It is a pretty inconsequential amount of money- the different between a TE and a TB is £270.
This is hardly anything compared to the cost of bike ownership- if financing the bike then the interest for one year at 5.9% is £951.

It is proving to be a pretty popular colour too- if it has a higher residual over the non-TB colours then it mitigates the cost.
I bought a TB because it was the bike that was in stock for the right price with the right bits on it.
I'd have been happy with a matt red too- wouldn't have bought a white one.

I have just bought the white one... but I am a bit weird

Well apparently the T/B is definitely the faster GS when it comes to leaving the showroom.

According to my main dealer sales manager who is also a mate, he says, that given the choice he'd rather have a T/B traded in, in preference a coloured bike, because he can sell'em much quicker.....and easier.........

....just saying..

When I was at Bahnstormer buying my bike they had 4 TB's presold that hadn't made it to the showroom (including mine), one floor model in white that had been there for a while.
The TB's are definitely more popular.

 

[aeronut7]

they are more popular....as ltd editions....anniversary editions....and all the other advertising ploys to make us spend our money...
if it was just sold as BLACK in colour choice would it be as popular as the TRIPPLE BLACK.....you've got to give it to there advertising team...
they know how the bmw rider thinks...and once you've had black you never go back....

Very good marketing to be able to charge the extra for a cheaper paint and a GS logo on the seat!

Would be if anybody actually paid more for it, I certainly didn't.

I don't suspect many people did pay anywhere near the list price but the other colourd models were discounted more......... in my neck of the woods anyway

Nothing wrong with a white one, certainly not as common as a TB

 

[leadfarmer]

Mine's Frozen dark blue cos I preferred the colour, not complicated really

Yeah, it doesn't bother me that some men 'like' other men either.
Just not my thing.

Discounted more as not as desirable, simple when you think about it
