I have a lot of issues with the current corporate power fight that's raging inside Harley-Davidson.

Triumph’s New Trident 660 Triple Tribute Goes Retro-Sporty, and Oh So Sexy

Triumph’s triple-cylinder bikes have always danced to the beat of their own drum. Smooth, torquey, and full of character, they offer something different from the usual twin or inline-four formula.
