THE TRIDENT TRIPLE/T1S0
Just imagine the fastest, ruggedest Triumph you've ever ridden. Then add
another cylinder and carbo Pow! That's the new Triumph Triple - over 60
BHP of creamy smooth lightning. An astonishing breakthrough in motorcycle
design that resulted in a three cylinder 750cc machine that can cruise along
all day at speeds that make other bikes' eyes bulge.
Imagine forgetting about that old vibration massage once and for all.
I magi ne sauntering up behi nd a high ball ing tractor trailer, then steaming
past like he threw it into reverse.
Imagine a machine this powerful, and still with the same amazing lightness
and agil ity that brands all Tri umphs.
Then imagine not riding one. It'll tear you up.
