Street Triple Wins Motorbike of the Year 2007!
Wednesday, 9 January 2008
The article, written by Tim Luckhurst on Tuesday, names several other bikes that came close to winning the prestigious award but failed to instill the “cocktail of charisma and sheer all-round star quality” that made the Street Triple the winner.
Luckhurst said about the Street Triple: “I was wowed by its punch, handling and style. The three-cylinder engine is superb and the sound it makes with the throttle opened wide is a symphony in precision engineering.”
The Street Triple beat competition from other leading manufacturers Ducati, BMW, Suzuki and Piaggio.
For further information or a test ride please contact your dealer.
The Street Triple is a potent combination of the Daytona 675’s performance and the aggressive streetfighter styling drawn from the Speed Triple. It has become the most desirable naked middleweight motorcycle in the market with designing that has made it lean, light and agile.
It packs a powerful punch, 108PS to be exact, and 69Nm of effortless torque. It is stern competition for any naked middleweight competitor and for quite a few of the heavyweights too. The proven 675 engine delivers strong low and midrange performance, while the distinctive Triumph three-cylinder feel and unmistakable sound offer an electrifying and emotive ride.
