    Something magic about that 3x sound , like a miniature Rolls Royce Merlin . 👍

    I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but that to me, is the best looking bike ever.

    I had a chance to buy a Hurricane when I was a kid but passed on it because of the reliability issues. 40 years later, I still regret passing it by. The sound and power of that BSA Rocket III motor with the stock pipes is still music to my ears.

    I bought a Triumph TR 750 in 1975 just out the Navy, Boy was that a mistake selling it.

    Interesting that it was made for the US market and the pipes are on the UK side.

    saw one these new in a shop window in the middle of the night walking down a street i cannot remember but 50 years ago i recall seeing that amazing tank seat deaign. it was too dear for me...... Triumph shoukd do a retro model....one lean and fragile and real performance....not like their 900 Bonnevilles fat and gutless...but gracile alloy and grunty

      Glad you liked it Tim, that was pretty much all the decent footage we had of the bike on the day, sort of ran out of time to shoot :)

    The x 75 was designed by Graig Better . I think it was the best looking Trident. Very rare nowadays.

    That front brake is totally useless but nice looking like the bike itself
    I have the same on my 1971 TR 6

    Tricky to balance the 3 carbs, the middle one needs to be a bit richer to aid in cooling?

    As far as Triumphs go, I've never been a fan of these Hurricanes. I can appreciate them for what they are...they're definitely of an era, very USA 1970's tricked out vibe. I'll take a 60's Bonneville or TR6 over this one anyway... even though it's probably worth more than those other bikes.

      Daveco you really should ride one. I've owned numerous twins and triples and for me the only bike that trumps a triple is the TSS
