2015 Triumph Trophy

[Trumpet]

Is the 2015 Trophy out yet?

It seems like it, there's a Phantom Black on display at my dealer's

Well, I hope they  cure all the malfunctions that appeared in the earlier models.

I sold my maiden model after spending too much time in the shop.

I checked on the 2014 and these appeared even worse with all the recalls

I am back again looking at the 2015. I consider the TT one of the best designed mottos ever but the manufacturer cant seem to put it together  correctly.

Well they are no less correctly put together than a BMW these days...

If you are looking for perfection you will be forever looking... there are only 2 certainties in life.... death and taxes!

I dont find that philosophy atractive.

Comparing any manufacturing to the current BM woes is like using the lowest score as your benchmark. BM is in deep sheet at the motto manufacuring level.

In a sense, similar to TT: a superb 1600GT design full of bugs. The TT is the dream design of sport touring bikes but to my taste and needs, has had too many bugs so far.

I know Triumph pride reigns on owner boards, but the Japanese bikes outscores EU manufacturers in reliability by a huge margin...tis the reason why I am riding on an FJR with zero problems, though it is a bike I really don't like that much.

But, I like the TT better than any other bike I have ever own. I just cant afford the time to be taking care of mech quirks...especially after shelling that kind of money.

So I keep  checking every yr.

As a side opinion,  if the EU models dont come to high manufacturing standards pretty soon they are gonna fall to the trend that Harley fell into in the 70s: the consumer is gonna think of them as sheetta bikes....which by the way, its the impression even diehard owners now have as consequences of the manufacturing GT BMW fiasco.

I rather expect Triumph's classy reputation to come up to higher standards--rather than comparing it with the flooked up BMs

Any sign of a 2015 TTSE model, with what changes

[cropbiker]

You are not likely to see anything other than colour changes until the 2016 model.

I haVe a 2014 model, and once the ecu was changed zero issues. No other tabs or recalls. I have since done 40,000kms.
