Cricky- The Speedy and America are featured. Good parts on the clip are located at 4.47 ( guy using the wrong tool!!  ) 7.40 8.50 and 10.45 Dont let the Dutch naration put you off...it later gets translated into English from Dutch and without a cap in sight!-( no Dykes though, which was a little disappointing)  hope you like it!

Cool video RodYork. Kind of a Triumph History lesson and plant tour rolled into one.  The employees testing the engines really let em rip

If you'd all like I can bust out my Acoustics book and give ya'll some of the basic equations to describe the Helmholtz Resonator (or as my professor referred to it as beer bottle acoustics with me.) Careful what you wish for! 
Ride On!

Excellent video, very interesting. Thank you for posting.
Heres an idea, is there any way that we can put these videos in a 'Video' section of the web site so we can go back and look at them at any time.

Very interesting! According to the video, Triumph now makes 45,000 motorcycles a year. The North American market goal, including the introduction of the new new big cruiser, is 28,500. If they make that goal in the US, that will be a huge boost to Triumph.
