The Triumph Speed Triple model was first released in 1994 and was called the Speed Triple to acknowledge the 1938 Speed Twin. It was based on the Triumph Triple series of modular engines, which also powered the likes of the Triumph Trident, Daytona Sport and the Thunderbird retro bike and offered in two forms, a 750 for some European markets and 885 for all other markets. The Speed Triple was originally only equipped with the 885cc engine, but just before significant changes to the bike were made in 1997, some 750cc machines were produced using leftover Euro specification engines.
This 2005 Triumph Speed Triple has had one owner from new and was purchased from Eddy Wright's Motorcycles in Leeds by the vendor on the 12th May 2005, at the time adding a few extras such as genuine Triumph race pipes, Triumph fly screen, R&G radiator guards and trickle charger, making this a little different from a standard model. The Speed Triple has been maintained to a good order, with receipts on file for service and parts carried out. The Triumph is offered complete with a current V5C document, two sets of keys, handbooks, old MOT certificates and a sales booklet. Some light checking over may be required before placing it back on the road.
