Triumph made air cooled, chain driven, mechanical aspiration, mechanical speedometers, exposed shocks, and spoke wheels with tubed tires, with light bulbs instead of LED. They did all this 20 years after liquid cooling, drive shafts, soft tail designs, alloy wheels, tubeless tires and digital instrumentation, with LED, were introduced.

Our P-twins are not innovative in the least. They are not winning the awards, the Sprint and 675 are.

Our motorcycles are looking one way. Not forward or backward. They simply look cool. I love my bike. It is not trying to be anything other than what it is. "cool"

I can't imagine it ever being for sale for any reason other than food or health. I am its caretaker for life.

Did I mention I love my TBA?


I try to aggravate one person a day. Today may be your day.
