I was recently at a Biker Shop and noticed this… thing! A beast of some kind. It was not a Boss Hoss but a Triumph. Having recently received a text from one of our readers saying: “More Triumphs please.” I had to find out more. And if you know me, you know that I am not shy to talk to a stranger, so I had to know more. The owner was a Britt that grew up in Cypress… and his best childhood friend was Greek, imagine that! (God smirk). After talking with the owner for a few minutes, I had enough info to do my own research. If This is the genesis of a generation of Triumph’s ultimate motorbike legend.
