The Complete Book of Classic and Modern Triumph Motorcycles 1937-Today
Originally formed as a bicycle company in 1885, Triumph produced its first motorcycle in 1902, which was simply a bicycle fitted with a Belgian Minerva engine. From there, the company, in various iterations, went on to build some of the most iconic motorcycles of all time.
Written by respected Triumph expert Ian Falloon, this luxurious reference covers all of the major and minor models, with an emphasis on the most exemplary, era-defining motorcycles such as the Thunderbird, Tiger, Trophy, Bonneville, and new machines such as the Speed Triple, Thruxton, and Daytona 675. Detailed technical specifications are offered alongside compelling photography, much of it sourced from Triumph's archives.
"The Complete Book of Classic and Modern Triumph Motorcycles 1937-Today" also features important non-production models and factory racing and speed-record-setting motorcycles that have become integral parts of Triumph's stellar reputation.

The Complete Book of Classic and Modern Triumph Motorcycles 1937-Today
For the first time, Triumph motorcycles from 1937 to 2015 are presented in an encyclopaedic and chronological format, with text written by a recognized specialist of the brand, Ian Falloon.
Every model, classic or modern, large or small, is described, from the "street bikes" which formed the basis of the Superbike concept to the racing machines which ruled the circuits of Great Britain, continental Europe and North America for much of the 20th century, from the original Speed Twin to the current Daytona 675. This book, abundantly illustrated, should be in the library of every motorcycle enthusiast.
Model by model or family by family, this book presents the complete catalog of Triumph models from 1945 to the present day, designed for the road and trials, all the information at a glance and provides basic knowledge for the two-wheel fan.
The history of the main models is completed by technical sheets and data such as performance, prices, special series, racing machines.
Triumph (founded in 1886) finally went bankrupt in 1983, and the second oldest motorcycle-producing brand in the world was on the verge of collapse. The trademark rights went to a British building contractor.
And what nobody had thought possible: The man had a heart for motorcycles, not just for real estate. In 1990, with a completely new company on the market, the success story of the new Triumph is just two decades old - and much more consistently successful than the old ones ever were.
For each type covered, this Typenkompass book contains a photo, a historical description and technical data.
This illustrated reference book is intended for enthusiasts of Triumph and British motorcycles. Written by respected expert Ian Falloon, it covers all key Triumph models - from early classics to more recent developments. Special focus is given to iconic bikes such as the Thunderbird, Tiger, Trophy, Bonneville, as well as modern models like the Speed Triple, Thruxton, and Daytona 675.
The book combines detailed technical data with high-quality photographs, many sourced from the Triumph archives. It also includes factory racing machines and record-setting motorcycles. Covering all Triumph models since 1937, it offers a thorough overview of one of Britain's most successful motorcycle brands.
