Triumph Motorcycles Special Effects

A 15th Anniversary Speed Triple tops this trio of limited-edition Triumphs
Triumph has sold more than 35,000 examples of its bug-eyed Speed Triple streetfighter since 1995, making it one of the most successful models of the company's modern era. This winning combination of longevity and likeability is celebrated for 2010 with a special 15th Anniversary Edition, painted Phantom Black with red accents, hand-striped wheels, a color-matched flyscreen and belly pan. Special decals--including Triumph owner John Bloor's signature on the gas tank--and a gel seat further set the machine apart. Only 255 examples will be offered in America, priced at $12,299 (a $1K premium over the base model), each including a matching, marine-grade wristwatch.
