New Triumph to be revealed at the annual Alpen Triumph gathering, Tridays in Austria.  I wonder what it will be?  Rumors abound about a new Trophy and a new Daytona & Street Triple.  Other rumors are that Triumph may produce an electric bike, a 300cc single, or a new higher capacity Speed Triple.  We shall see...

Triumph needs to have a second bike use that new 1200cc engine. I would guess a touring bike aka Trophy replacement.

Maybe they'll finally sneak in the Tiger cub 675?  Five years after we all stopped holding our breath..not likely.

Yes I agree. Another big bagger ST bike to compete with the C14, RT, FJR.

The long awaited 1200 Trophy to go along with the Explorer.

Yup, another vote for Trophy here.  Those spy shots from last year looked remarkably close to production.

Me too but they really need to get the 1200 and 800 in to other bikes. The 1200cc Trophy is the obvious bet.

I would also like to see a lighter 800cc Sprint with a slightly shorter wheelbase. I know that's not going to happen any time soon but it could be pretty sweet.

I agree - I'll have to deal with my Sprint ST which is only a little lighter and a little shorter in the wheelbase than the GT...Smile

The Sprint 1050 is getting long in the tooth too (2005) with only minor updates over the last 7 years (including the ST -> GT change).

I dunno...

I was just rooting around on the Tridays site, and all I saw was this: http://www.tridays.at/News/TestNews4.aspx

Looks to be an Italian Explorer (my guess) called the T12.

I was hoping the "T" was for Trophy, but the hint shots look like a naked.
