Paul McGee added, “Unbelievable, it’s just got so much power, can I go out on it again?!”

Plenty of laid-back riders who arrived on their Harleys and Triumph Rockets were keen for a comparison ride on the Bobber and Speedmaster. With its custom attitude, forward footpegs, swept-back beach bars and comfortable pillion capability, the Speedmaster was another popular bike during the Triumph Glasgow Roadshow.

As if a full Triumph demonstrator fleet for the full weekend for you to test ride wasn’t enough, when Triumph Glasgow Managing Director Martin Rees fired up The Official 2019 Moto2 World Championship racing bike, visitors and bikers of Scotland could hear this revolutionary and record-breaking bike from miles away!

Rees commented, “What a machine. Imagine hearing 30+ of these bikes all on a track, racing for the Moto2 Championship, giving it all they’ve got, it would be amazing! Each race-tuned Triumph Triple engine for the Moto2 is set up to deliver more than 140PS, that’s an increase of more than 17% over the production bike. Racing will never be the same again!”

Triumph Motorcycles have signed a three-year contract to supply a dedicated race tuned 765cc Triumph triple engine, based on the powerplant from the all-new Triumph Street Triple.

The new engine is a significant development of the race-winning Daytona 675R powerplant that has powered supersports wins at the Isle of Man TT, Daytona 200 and British Supersports Championships in 2014 and 2015.

So, if you think Triumph Glasgow have put on a good show at The Green Welly this weekend, you’d better add TFest, Triumph’s Annual Dealer Open Weekend to your diary. On 11th and 12th May, fans will have the opportunity to view the entire 2019 line-up at Triumph Glasgow, they will be offering test rides on the latest models and providing entertainment for the whole family, new season clothing displays, food and much more.
