Triumph

Triumph is a British motorcycle brand whose history goes back to the nineteenth century. Siegfried Bettmann started trading in bicycles in 1884, it became the Triumph Cycle Company in 1886, and the first Triumph motorcycle followed in 1902. After Triumph Engineering went bankrupt in 1983, John Bloor bought the name. Since the early 1990s Triumph Motorcycles Ltd has been building motorcycles again from Hinckley in Leicestershire, supplemented by factories in Thailand.

The range revolves around two families. The triples: Street Triple, Speed Triple, Tiger 900 and 1200, Trident 660 and Rocket 3. And the retro-styled parallel twins: Bonneville, Speed Twin, Thruxton and Scrambler 1200. Since 2023 there are also compact single-cylinder bikes, the Speed 400 and Scrambler 400, built in partnership with Bajaj. For Dutch buyers Triumph is interesting if you value character, finish and handling over pure power figures. On MotorMonitor you see current stock per model, with prices from dealers, marketplaces and private sellers.
