and it's MCN, who appear to be in bed with Triumph

Its still one of the great roadbike engines it would seem. Does look so much better in those colours.

What accessory exhausts are Triumph doing for it, D6?

Some nice styling touches on the bike, like those LED indicators and the T on the engine cover.

That looks ace. Good price as well seeing as it's so rare.

Really? It looks like a Triple with a Daytona nose grafted on it by an amateur.

Looks like a black Tiger 1050 sport to me.
