Triumph Thunderbird description

The Thunderbird Sport promises a great deal with its classic flat track
styling emphasised by its striking colour options and finished to
perfection with its pair of reverse cone silencers stacked one above the
other on the right-hand side.
It lives up to that promise thanks to a chassis which has been described
by many testers as the best handling of a Hinckley Triumph aside from
the supersport T500 series.
Compared with the Thunderbird from which the Sport is derived, the
suspension has a longer travel, the wheels front and rear are a sportier
17 inch diameter (compared with 18 and 16 inches front and rear) and the
front brake is uprated to twin disc specification from single disc.
In addition, to help riders take advantage of the enhanced ability of
the cycle parts, the engine is upgraded over the Thunderbird's to
produce 83PS (82bhp) and 76Nm (56lb.ft) compared with 70PS (69bhp) and
72Nm (53lb.ft).

Sulfur Yellow Triumph Daytona 675 Highlights New 2012 Colors

Tue, 15 May 2012

Triumph announced a number of new paint schemes for several of its models. While the new options are for the most part merely cosmetic, the lone exception is the new sulfur yellow 2012 Triumph Daytona 675. We’re not quite sure it’s good marketing for a color scheme that reminds you of the smell of rotten eggs, but the sulfur yellow Daytona 675 also sports a number of upgrades.

Are Motorcycles Safer With Antilock Brakes?

Tue, 30 Dec 2008

A new report says riders with ABS-equipped bikes can dramatically reduce the chance of a fatal accident. The study compared fatality rates among riders on bikes that have antilock brakes, and it found that death rates were 38% lower on motorcycles equipped with the optional ABS systems compared to non-ABS bikes. In 2005-2006, the fatal crashes per 10,000 registered motorcycles without antilock brakes was 6.6.

Small-Displacement Class Considered for 2015 AMA Pro Racing Season

Wed, 04 Dec 2013

More and more manufacturers are entering the small-displacement sportbike market and AMA Pro Racing has taken notice, opening the possibility of adding a new racing class representing the growing segment.

The logical choice is to introduce a new small-displacement class.
