good news is that the dual bug look stays… BUT it looks like a space bug! (will alienate :rolleyes: some)

New lights ruin the classic Triumph look. If anything, this should boost sales of the outgoing model. Shame the test rider couldn’t get their knee down in the photos.

One of the reasons I got the superduke over the speed triple was that I was expecting a new version to come next year. I’m not sure about the looks, will have to wait to see it in the flesh, but I’m a bit disappointed that it looks like they’re sticking with the engine. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a lovely smooth engine, but it’s a bit heavy and dated now. I thought they’d make it an 1100 and smoothen it out a bit and make it a bit lighter. It looks like the frame is the same too, so I guess the handling will be the same. Again, not bad, but could be refined I thought.
Hopefully, at least, they’ll have changed the gearbox.

On the plus side, there may be some bargains to be had on the existing model now :cool:
