The name of Triumph was one of the most famous in motorcycling. Its demise in 1973 caused anguish in the worldwide biking community. Hinckley Triumphs – The First Generation examines the re-invention and rise of Triumph Motorcycles.
• The first generation of the new bikes was manufactured from 1991–2004. Sharing the same spine frame and standard components, the innovative new models from the new company paved the way for Triumph's continuing success.
David Clarke is an IT program manager, and has recently retired from an international energy company. He has a wide range of interests and has been an enthusiastic motorcyclist for many years. To date, he has owned seven Hinckley Triumphs; currently, three T300 Speed Triples, including an ex-Challenge bike, and a Thruxton. He is passionate about Hinckley Triumphs, which he views as a continuation of the tradition of British engineering excellence. This is his fifth book.
"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 naked eye...up close and personal was a sight to remember. Triumph motorcycles have been around for over 100 years and they are still thriving. Although the company is still thriving, and most of the bikes from Gen 1 are still in production, but I have to be honest here.....those 1st generation Hinckley bikes were simply 'Special".....from the built quality, and presence...down to the decal!!! a special bike and time."
