In essence, an extravaganza is a celebration of excess and spectacle, often designed to amaze and entertain (according to the AI search thing)
Wonderful machinery to look at and admire - accordingly there were quite a number of Triumphs:
Lovely panniers - if you can find the originals for yours
Never really liked the Metisse stuff enough to own one but class none the less (if they’ve been built properly that is)
Tangerene from 1959, the first of the Bonnies.
The fastest pre-unit I’ve ever seen.
Plenty of hooligans hiding under all those lights and mudguards
Also a few imitators that have, at least, got the correct engine
and another imitator. Good looker though.
Hiding amongst the electronic TFT stuff a 650 Thunderbird which some owners really like a lot. Smooth as silk as Triumph were trying to ease the vibrations a bit.
The new Triumph paint jobs aren’t new at all. Lots of work done to this one but jeez, Norton peashooters?
This year my fav wasn’t a Trumpet at all (the flat track bikes weren’t there this year). I would’ve taken this home in a flash.
See ya’ll there again next year
…over…
