"Triumph Speed Twin" (1938)
The 1938 Triumph Speed Twin is a motorcycle
that revolutionized the industry, setting the standard for performance
and design that would influence countless models in the years to come.
Powered by a 498cc parallel-twin engine, the Speed Twin was the
brainchild of Edward Turner, whose vision for a lightweight, powerful,
and reliable motorcycle came to life in this iconic machine. The engine
produced around 27bhp, allowing the Speed Twin to reach speeds
of over 90mph, an impressive feat for its time. The bike's design was
equally groundbreaking, with a lightweight frame, telescopic front
forks, and streamlined bodywork that gave it a modern, stylish
appearance. The Speed Twin's performance and aesthetics quickly made it
a favorite among riders and helped establish Triumph as a leading
manufacturer of motorcycles. The 1938 Triumph Speed Twin remains a
classic, revered for its engineering innovation, its elegant design, and
its pivotal role in the history of British motorcycling.
