Looks Forward to a Strong 2010
100,000th Triumph to be Sold Since North
American Return
Triumph
Motorcycles celebrated its U.S. Dealer Conference by
announcing the continued expansion of its product line
and the pending sale of its 100,000th motorcycle since
returning to North America just 15 years ago.
"Triumph has methodically grown our model range and
dealer network over the past 15 years, and we have even
more great things in store for customers in the coming
years" said Mark Kennedy, CEO of Triumph Motorcycles
North America.
"Triumph has maintained our commitment to
new product development, so customers will continue to
see great new products that push the envelope in terms
of styling, performance and reliability. The next
few years are going to be a lot of fun, and we’re really
looking forward to the journey."
Triumph currently offers 16 different models in three
motorcycle families: Cruiser, Urban Sport and Modern
Classic.
That will grow to 23 models across seven
motorcycle families by the end of 2012 and include
categories where Triumph does not currently compete.

features two-tone Meriden and Caspian Blue paint, a
numbered handlebar clamp plaque and a certificate of

motorcycle receives special Tornado Red paint with a
Crystal White center stripe, seat cowl and flyscreen.

Sparkle Blue chassis was so successful in 2009 that the

carbon fiber trim. MSRP is $10,299.
-
Tiger 1050: Now the Tiger is more
versatile than ever with the detachable locking hard
bags included as standard equipment on every new
2010 model.
“The Tiger is one of the most resourceful bikes
on the market, so it’s not too surprising that the
locking hard bags were one of the most popular
options,” said Jim Callahan, North American
Marketing Manager for Triumph Motorcycles.
"Because of that demand, Triumph is making the
locking hard bags standard equipment for all 2010
Tigers."
The 2010 Triumph Tiger is available with or
without ABS in Phantom Black and Fusion White for an
MSRP starting at $11,999 USD.

Triumph has won awards in virtually every motorcycle
segment, most recently Cycle World magazine’s "Cruiser
of the Year" for the 1600cc Thunderbird and the Motorcycle.com
"Motorcycle of the Year" for the 675cc
Street Triple R.
As a testament to the strength of
Triumph’s products and customer interest in the brand,
in 2009 Triumph added 23 dealers to its North American
dealer network and became one of just two manufacturers
to report an increase in market share every year for the
last five years.
