    According to MCN, 100bhp (15 up on the F800GS) and a larger tank too. If the new triple motor is as nice as the 675, hopefully it won't explode either

    Well my 955i triple motor took severe punishment from me, rev limiter every time it was out, wheelies off the throttle daily and when I sold it it was like a new bike, got top book for it!
    Triumph triple, bomb proof, well to me any way!

    A triumph rival to the 800GS will be interesting. But it's a bit weird to go for the 3 cylinders on their off-roady bike... a break from the usual 1/2 cylinders, it'll be interesting.

    If they want to go after the GSA market, they need the bigger bike...

    The riders don't actually need them (with the exception of Vader who packs everything including the kitching sink onto the back of his tank), but buy them regardless...

    The 800 offroad is sounding very interesting, and I'll definitely give it a spin when it's out...

    We are back looking at the motorcycles again are we? I can imagine ground clearance and beaks being a bit of an issue if we're on the other Triumph site

    Just saw this on Visordown: Official documents identify new Triumphs - Motorcycle news: New bikes - Visordown

    Estimated wet weight of 200kg, with around 100 bhp...

    It just gets more interesting by the minute...

    HEY TRIUMPH... Release the information already!
