Triumph Trophy 1200

1998
Triumph Trophy 1200cc

This is the big one. Four cylinders and 1200cc of sheer grunt. A powerful get you there quick bike with tremendous low down torque. I have always had the utmost admiration for John Bloor and what he has done with the Hinckley operation since 1990, and I always wanted a Trophy. When this model became available at second-hand prices I could afford, I got one. I bought this bike from M&S Motorcycles in Newcastle-upon-Tyne with 1000 miles on the clock in 1999.

I have fitted a Scottoiler (wonderful things!) and a Clearview XL screen (the pic shows the stock screen still fitted). This bike has carried me many miles, but can be heavy on juice and spares are mega-expensive ! Thankfully, Sprint Manufacturing can supply after-market products and second hand parts at reasonable prices.

There’s a large amount of information about the Triumph Trophy on the Yahoogroup. Take a look, especially at the FAQ page !
