| Triumph's profilation of this bike | 
  | To become a true icon is no easy feat.  But from its very first incarnation over a decade ago the Speed Triple assumed just that status, mixing a primal three-cylinder core with sporting ability and an aggressive, stripped-down stance.  Some things are just right and meant to be.  The Speed Triple has always been one of those things. |
