Award Winning Motorcycles

Wednesday, 19 August 2009

Triumph Motorcycles continue to top the ranking with America’s leading online motorcycle news website ‘motorcycle.com’ announcing their 2009 awards.

Leading the race with the highest accolade is Triumph’s own Street Triple / R taking out the 2009 ‘Bike of the Year’ award.

"Triumphs Street Triple R is a fantastically versatile sporting package with one of our favourite engines of all time. It's an elemental motorcycle but with major league performance built in, and it's fun-to-ride quotient is sky high, earning our MoBo Motorcycle of the year award for 2009". (motorcycle.com)

Triumph’s Street Triple and Street Triple R continue to be amongst the most popular naked street fighters on the market.

The Street Triple also recently winning MCN’s ‘Best Naked’ comparo. The inline triple harnesses the high performance Daytona 675 engine with a great combination of stubby chassis, precision handling and unique exhaust note.

The awards don’t stop there, as Triumph continues to impress with the release of the new 2010 Thunderbird receiving the ‘motorcycle.com’ award for ‘Best Cruiser’.

Motorcycle.com editors report "Triumph's Thunderbird twists the cruiser mold by eschewing a V-Twin powerplant in favor of a character-rich parallel-Twin that retains a link with Triumphs of yore. Clean lines penned by an American designer”... “and a stout chassis encourages riding on twisty roads instead of avoiding them.”
