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. |
