New Triumph Trophy!

[Ian Bungy]

Hi Guys, I just saw this so Check it out the New Triumph Trophy. Looks like the New BMW 1600? Everything is very similar, look at the Dash Board! All Except only 1215cc instead of 1600cc!!! Looks Beautiful and I bet it will be a Great Bike if You Like the Big Road Tourers!

I'm pleased to see Triumph have re-introduced the Trophy. I had a 1995 900 & a 1999 1200. Both were good touring bikes & covered a lot of miles. I see Triumph has had the sense to fit this new one with shaft drive - should be a big improvement. Annoyingly, the finish on the 1200 was nowhere near as good as on the 900 which is why in 2002 I returned to Honda. A friend of mine who worked for Triumph in Florida suggested this was due to Triumph outsourcing a lot of parts from abroad with a lack of quality control.

I think the Quality is Top Notch at Triumph now and all their Bikes are Beautifully Finished! They are really taking the Motorcycle Market by Storm. The Only thing I find a bit Concerning is apart from their Classic Range of Bikes all their New so called "Adventure" and Touring Bike Range seems to be a Direct Copy of a BMW? Not very Original and I hate Copy Cats!!! Of course the point could be argued that their Copies are a better Bike but I would have thought they could alter the look a little to look more Original and like one of their Own Bikes?
