The 'latest' Triumph Trophy is a touring motorcycle launched by Triumph in 2012 but discontinued in 2017. There have, however, been other Triumph models bearing the Trophy name over a long period. For example - Triumph Trophy models with 3-cylinder 900cc engines and 4-cylinder 1200cc engines were manufactured at Hinckley starting in 1991.In the late 1950s and early 1960s the TR6 Trophy was an off road version of the firm’s 650cc twin. It won success in the International 6 days trophy. The most obvious difference between the Trophy and its siblings was that the Trophy had high level exhausts. The new version features a 1,215 cc (74.1 cu in) liquid-cooled, 12-valve, straight-three engine,[1] which is mated to a six-speed gearbox and shaft drive. The engine is also used on its dual-sport sibling, the Tiger Explorer,[2] although on the Trophy it produces slightly less power and has a taller sixth gear, more suitable for the touring proposal of this motorcycle.[3] The base model will be complemented by the SE, which features extra equipment such as electronically adjustable suspension, a Bluetooth audio system, and a tyre-pressure monitoring system.[2] The SE will be the only model sold in the United States, Canada, Australia and Brazil.[2]
