Triumph Trident description
This original un-restored machine is 100% as it was when delivered from the factory 41 years ago with the exception of the oil pressure warning light being replaced by an actual oil pressure gauge. It is one(1) of four(4) bikes for sale from my collection, and is currently part of a two(2) month exhibit ending 9/5/16 at The Stony Brook Museum Educational and Cultural Center in Stony Brook, New York. I have owned and maintained this bike for 15 years, having put about 10,000 trouble free miles on it during that time. 1975 was the only full year in which this 5-speed triple cylinder 750 with triple amal carbs and electric start was produced, and it came equipped with Girling shocks and Lockheed hydraulic disc brakes on the front and the back. All the prior years production Tridents (T-150's) were kick-start only, and the cylinders were angled forward 15 degrees in order that the automotive type electric starter could be fitted into the T-160. In addition to the re-positioning of the engine, the T-160 came with a new frame just like the production racer "Slippery Sam", the most famous Trident of all that notched up three consecutive Production TT wins in '72, '73, and '74, and many other racing honors. The swinging arm is longer, and the front forks are shorter, all to get the weight lower and further forward. This bike handles in the true British tradition. With a top speed of approximately 126mph, it was 15 mph faster than it's contemporary the 850 Commando when tested by BIKE magazine in 1975, and was actually quicker than the Kawasaki H2. It was stated in that road test report that "If the Trident had been like this seven years ago, there wouldn't be half as many Honda fours on the road now" Approximately 7000 T-160's were built in total, and it has been called the original Triumph firm's best, and arguably only, true superbike. This machine has a clean New York Title and comes with the original 76 page Owner's Handbook, Factory Workshop Manual and Parts Catalog in Factory hard-cover 3-ring binder, and an indoor full cover.

2022 Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RR First Look
Tue, 14 Sep 2021Fast Facts Café-style fairing Carbon fiber detailing More aggressive ergos than the RS Semi-active suspension MSRP $20,950 A modern café racer After a thankfully brief teaser campaign, Triumph revealed its new Speed Triple 1200 RR, a modern café racer based on the naked Speed Triple 1200 RS. Triumph did a lot more than just slap a partial fairing on the RS. While it’s still not a fully-faired sportbike (hence why it’s still a Speed Triple and not a Daytona), the RR is a much more track-focused machine than the RS.
