Triumph is one of my favorite makes. The Hinckley Triumphs (the new models built after the company was reopened in 1988) offer all of the classic styling but with modern reliability, which is amazing.
The vertical twin has a unique look and sound and the engines are robust. Overall they offer better power and smoothness than your traditional v-twins. Triumph also has triple cylinder bikes that are also great for power and compact size.
Among the Bonneville, America, Thunderbird, Thruxton and Speed Triple, Triumph has a very extensive lineup for bikes.
Yes, those are really cool. I've heard they were hard to find. I think the regular Bonneville and Thruxtons are really cool as well. They seem pretty basic, so I would imagine not a lot of problems with maintenance or repairs. Kawasaki w650s and w800s are very cool as well.
Glad to hear the positive things about the triumphs. SMQ owners noted how smooth they are. I really like this SMQ edition. I think 1100 of these were made and a little over 300 were available in the US market. These were going for msrp. So more web pics.
Here's a model with Heidenau tires and replica license plate.
I like how the plugs fire at the same time in the Triumph motor.
It boggles up my mind how They do this, really makes me crazy trying to figure it out. Makes for a real smooth ride and I understand puts out more tourque with less HP.
I ride a Bonneville. I love it. I'm wanting to pick up a street3 or maybe a Ducati Monster just to have something to get silly with, but I'll always have a soft spot for the Bonnie line.
Like I said before, I do wish they would quit with the limited edition paint jobs and instead give the line up a real make over.
At least make the Thruxton a bike that has different engine, suspension, etc. choices.
