Triumph Twins & Triples

In modern times, with the well-established recognition that the Japanese motorcycle now has alongside the long known German and Italian models, enthusiasts can still point proudly to the one major British firm left from the past. It’s Triumph, now moved to a new home in Hinckley and building machines technically divorced from their past, but still using the traditional tank badge recognised all over the world.

Long before events brought about this change, Triumph led the way to the vertical-twin motorcycle and after World War II majored on this engine type, adding a triple late in the day. These machines continue to be much in demand, but now this is in the classic machine market where they hold the same high position as they did when the models were new.

This book is essential reading for every Triumph owner, rider, restorer or just admirer. It deals with the much loved Triumph twins, plus the fabulous Trident, from its inception to the final days at Meriden and includes many photographs plus invaluable tables of machine data and specifications.
