Another drop in to West Yorkshire Triumph

As we were in the vicinity today, we decided it would be rude not to have a quick mooch at the Triumph dealership at Shipley. Collecting non-motorcycle-related bobbins required a car boot so no riding today.

Also not to appear rude, I purchased a rather fetching red r-shirt…

…and booked a test ride next Saturday on a Speed 400. (If anyone else wants to come along, it’s booked out from 11am-1pm).

They’re quite popular, apparently.

There were also a number of Rocket 3’s in the showroom. I still want to have a go on one of those. Maybe I’ll ask next week.

Bargain of the day seemed to be this Speed Triple 1200 RR with over five grand knocked off the price!

That’s a lot of bike for the money. Tempted,
@Oldskool ? :grin:

When I was collecting my 400x I counted six Rocket 3’s in the showroom, there’s obviously no shortage!

Those Speed Triple 1200 RR’s look gorgeous in the flesh and a bargain at £13k - it’s a hell of a lot of brand new bike for that money.

Must be that special red paint they use that weighs ‘em down.

Do they still sell Ducatis?

Yes. Still the adjoining showroom.

The best bikes in god’s own county. Would love to ride across the Dales when I’m up there again.
