Predecessor 2002 Triumph Trophy 1200 Engine 1,215 cc (74.1 cu in) Liquid-cooled, 12 valve, DOHC, in-line 3-cylinder | ||
The 'latest' Triumph Trophy is a touring motorcycle launched by Triumph in 2012. There have, however, been other Triumph models bearing the Trophy name over a long period. For example - Triumph Trophy models with 3-cylinder 900cc engines and 4-cylinder 1200cc engines were manufactured at Hinckley starting in 1991. The new version features a 1,215 cc (74.1 cu in) liquid-cooled, 12-valve, straight-three engine, which is mated to a six-speed gearbox and shaft drive. The engine is also used on its dual-sport sibling, the Tiger Explorer, although on the Trophy it produces slightly less power and has a taller sixth gear, more suitable for the touring proposal of this motorcycle. The base model will be complemented by the SE, which features extra equipment such as electronically adjustable suspension, a Bluetooth audio system, and a tyre-pressure monitoring system. The SE will be the only model sold in the United States, Canada, Australia and Brazil.
