Speed Four Review From An Owner

Advantages: Great performance, great brakes, excellent value, individual and rare
Disadvantages: Lack of aftermarket parts, expensive parts

...could not find any non Triumph aftermarket parts anywhere so had to order them from Mr Triumph. All in all the plastics cost me £650 - which is very expensive. However, they come colour coded to the bike and with a fitting kit. They fit exactly and are quite easy to put on (unlike some after market body work I have bought in the past). The cost should be irrelevant since it is my pride and joy and I wouldn't put any old crap on it.

...
...to run quite hot. My Triumph dealer has told me that this is common with all the TT600 too.

Since the Speed Four is an unfaired sports bike it does not appeal to commuters (unlike most of its rivals), and does not appeal to the sports bike riders. It is a 'man-in-the-middle machine. Perhaps this is why the Speed Four never took off. It's styling seems to be something that you love or hate. The twin lights, alien style bikini fairing, ... more

Top of my Christmas list 2004

Advantages: Superb handling, performance by the bucketload
Disadvantages: Not ideal if you are under six foot high

I've just *got* to have one of these! It might take a few months before I can persuade "'er indoors" to let me order one, but my mind is made up! Every now and again, a manufacturer will manage to get everything just right, and this is about as good an example as I can think 'When I were a lad' a UK built bike was thought of as noisy, slow, probably handled OK, but otherwise a bit of an oddity, coupled with a reputation to be temperamental, and ...
...one had been parked by the big circle of oil on the road) these were for the lunatic fringe. Those days are well and truly in the past, and apart from the handling, which if anything is even better than before, you can forget virtually everything else. The 'Triumph speed four' didn't just appear one day out of the blue, mechanically it owes a lot to the 'TT600' which has had some of the rough edges ironed out, and owes a lot of it's styling to ...

I'm back

Advantages: Cheap (second hand) - few vices
Disadvantages: Unsophisticated

tough. The motorcycle test was frankly a joke, you drove round a couple of blocks, the examiner used to pop out behind a parked car every now and again, and make you do an emergency stop - first time, you nearly always failed, second time, you nearly always passed. But what about the bike? - hang on, I'm coming to that! In spite of my lack of formal training, I considered myself a reasonably proficient rider, six years constant use, with only one minor accident - I put this down to having a reasonably cautious driving style, and 'sensible' choice of motorcycles. Back to the bike I got the chance of a GS500e from my best mate, who after using it for a couple of years upgraded to a Triumph speed four (which, if he ever stops polishing it, and lets me have a go, I'll write a review on!) The GS500e is basically a sheep in ...
