KVT said Excellent!!. Excellent!!! I was (and still am) a fan of the TExcellent!! Excellent!!! I was (and still am) a fan of the T3's (second generation triumphs). It was time to pay homage to these great bikes. They had so much character and "specialness" about them. Totally over-engineered bikes with substantial heft, but rock solid and very dependable. My all time fav bike out of the 1st generation T3's is the iconic Speed Triple 900. The BIG, BAD, BRAWNY NEO CAFE/STREETFIGHTER menace was the bike to have (and the Super 3). I was there when Triumph announced that they would be coming to the US for the 1995 year, and to actually see the Speed Triple with the nak. 's (second generation triumphs).

You should own this book." according to Scott P. Miller. This is a must-own for any Hinckley Triumph enthusiast. It has a lot of insight and its clear the author did a lot of research and work in collecting all the information.My only knocks are some grammar errors here and there. In one section they're talking about one model and you turn the page and all of a sudden it mentions a different one. Not a flaw in information, just printed the wrong model there. There's also a few missing spaces after periods.Not a reason to not buy it - as I say - a must own for any enthusiast or anyone who owns one, really..
