How a Triumph Motorcycle Is Not Actually Made

Loved it.

The original Rocket 3 that I lusted after while riding a Bantam. Still looks good.

Nice. I bet that one's worth a bob or two. (If it's a recent pic.)

Is that an "official" spoof? Excellent!
That's real interior footage of the factory too.

Excellent!

Dear All,

Wonderful, a manufacturer of fabulous bikes with a wonderful sense of humour should go a long way.

It is rare today to see a manufacturer of anything using humour to educate its customers.

Just been to the Sydney Motor Show and trying to get to sit in a sexy car was impossible . Last year you needed a Ken Ishiwata pony tail to get onto Lotus, Lambo,Ferrari,Bentley stands . This year it was ghastly 70's sunglasses and razored designer stubble beard hair cut.

So i failed again to get onto these stands run by Prissy Arrogant Twats sorry sales consultants sorry marketing specialists.

Linn used humour many years ago when i was involved in the HiFi industry selling linn naim Nytech A&R Cambridge , Rega etc. I loved the Linn adverts and posters of the time. Have not been surpassed in my opinion.

So heres to Triumph who make great bikes in good old blighty.

regards David

Sounded great too. Triples had certain somthing.
I spent a year in vain trying to prise a Rocket Three(may have been a Triumph Trdent) away from it's owner,where I was working at the time.

Stephen,

Yours for a mere $48,000. It is brand new and unused, follow link

It will take either a dedicated enthusiast or a very brave man to cough up $48k for the BSA.

You can buy a mint Vincent Rapide for similar money and it is no contest to as which is the best bike.

Mick,

A fine bike indeed, worth a picture in fact.

That is a damn good photo of a damn good bike.

The only bike that outstrips it in the desirability stakes is a Brough Superior SS100.

I currently ride a mint 1959 BSA B31 350cc single. Although not fast, it is a charming bike to take for a run on a summers evening.

I may be retiring at the end of the year and if I do actually and genuinely call it quits, I have promised myself the Vincent. You only live once and bugger it, I want one.

Regards

Mick

Boys C'mon beautiful they maybe but...Oil leaks, no brakes, shit handling. Now take those rose tinted glasses off.
