Triumph Trident (1968-1975): boeken - historie en modellen

Triumph Trident and BSA Rocket 3 - The Complete Story

The 3-cylinder Triumph Trident and BSA Rocket 3 were developed to compete with Honda's forthcoming 750 cc motorcycle. Initially they did not compare well - although very fast, they lacked sophistication and their quirky styling was offputting - and the decision was made to suspend production.
This was not the most auspicious start, but a fightback was initiated and in 1971 the factory race team had a triumphant year including placing 1st, 2nd and 3rd at the Daytona 200.

With over 250 photographs, the full rollercoaster-ride history of these bikes is described, including:
- how the bikes came to be, including a timeline of significant events;
- a year-by-year account of the evolution of the bikes, through the T150, T160 and Rocket 3;
- the story of the Hurricane;
- the full racing history
- and, finally, the Triumph 3-cylinder bikes today.

Triumph Trident - The Best Production Racer Ever

The Triumph Trident was a ground-breaking three-cylinder 750cc motorbike that was ahead of its time, though pipped to the production post by the Honda CB750 Four. It was also the last major motorcycle project by Triumph.

In this thoroughly researched and comprehensive book, Roy Maddox takes the reader through the full range of models, including the BSA Rocket 3, the Meridien and the A75 Hurricane, as well as the technical changes that took place and the range of specials and one-offs.
The book also includes a buyer's guide with owners' feedback and modifications as well as details of owners' clubs and events.

As this book reveals, the Triumph Trident T150 was a milestone in British and world motorcycle design that also achieved huge success on the racing track. As it reaches the fiftieth anniversary of its launch, the Triumph Trident T150 is as appreciated today by its many owners and enthusiasts as it was in its heyday.
