Triumph's new Speed Four hopes to forge a new direction in the minds of 600 buyers.   Utilising mechanicals from the company's TT600 the Speed Four should promise good performance from it's 599cc powerplant.

Twin chromed headlights, a neat instrument cluster behind a racy fly screen, and this time, those purposeful air scoops either side of the frame rails. And all highlighted in a choice of either typically vibrant or more reserved colours.
