As part of the Motorcycling WikProject I am working though all the missing articles and stubs for British Bikes. To make things easier to sort out there is a special Category:British motorcycles Please add to any British motorcycle pages you find or create. It will also help to keep things organised if you use the Template:Infobox Motorcycle or add it where it is missing. I've linked the Category to the Commons Motorcycles of Britain so you could help with matching pics to articles or adding the missing images to the Commons.

With regards to the Rocket 3 at 2300cc being the worlds largest capacity production motorcycle, the US made Boss-Hoss with a 5700cc V8 ZZ4 block could also be considered as the largest. Just a thought as I know that Triumph are mainstream whereas Boss-Hoss are specialist but they do produce a range of M/C's — Preceding unsigned comment added by Darren10000 ( talk • contribs) 19:47, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

I've noticed much of this page is quite outdated - i.e last update around 6 years ago. I've started an update and will continue to add bits to this. Lauratheexplorer ( talk) 22:57, 27 December 2017 (UTC)
Looking to include this brief edit in the history section on Triumph's recent partnership with Bajaj:
"With the emerging market of Indian bikers, Triumph began an informal partnership with Bajaj Auto Ltd in August 2017. Focusing on the mid-sized bike market, this partnership allows Triumph to expand its global reach and Bajaj to expand its range of motorcycle models. In late 2019 Triumph announced that through the alliance, Bajaj will have a major part in the production and design of the bikes but that they will be branded as Triumph." [1]

Is the following 'blatant advertising' as claimed by one editor, or 'factual, relevant and interesting' as claimed by me?
Triumph and James Bond Partnership On 4th December 2019, Triumph were announced as an official partner for the 25th James Bond film “No Time To Die”, which will feature Triumph’s Scrambler 1200 and the 2020 Tiger 900 in key chase scenes.[1] [1] https://www.motorcyclenews.com/news/james-bond-no-time-to-die/

There is encyclopedic content to write on the subject of Triumph and product placement. A number of sources have discussed how successful Triumph has been in cultivating their image through movie franchises like Mission Impossible, James Bond, and Jurassic Park, among others [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] <-- I'm not endorsing all these links as reliable sources we can cite; only clues we can use to do research.
The Guardian wrote in 2015 that Triumph had never paid for product placement in movies, which is extraordinary given how much they've benefited from it. In that sense, it's significant that now Triumph is paying money to feature its bikes in the upcoming James Bond movie, something they got for free in the past. But we need to look at this not with sources that are nothing but knee-jerk newsblog posts based on press releases, e.g. [28] [29] -> [30]. WE should be looking at serious work on the subject of advertising and markeing, like [31] [32].
I'm not implying we have to write a takedown of Triumph for the sin of trying to sell motorcycles. But we have to be grown ups about this. -- Dennis Bratland ( talk) 17:27, 10 December 2019 (UTC)
key chase sceneswould be inappropriate - the errant word here being key which would be regarded as pointy, that is, failing to comply with neutral point of view. A subtle difference but something a publicist would write for effect and sensation, not an encyclopedia compiler. There are many, many films having what are regarded as key chase scenes, some involving motorcycles.
The heading "Triumph and James Bond Partnership" is way OTT, more so as James Bond is a fictitious entity with which Triumph could not have any formal contractual dealings. Equally unacceptable was the very-promotional heading and content Factory Visitor Experience - that's what their own web presences and news media are for. Q:You get the picture? A: Yes, we see.
Consideration also has to be given to WP:CRYSTAL in that the film is unreleased, and perhaps unfinished; accordingly text-implications have to be tentative, and phrases such as [Triumph] 'were chosen' or 'were selected' also present difficulty as can be construed that Triumph was preferred over other marques.
==In popular culture== In late 2019, it was announced that Triumph Scrambler 1200 and 2020 Tiger 900 models, specially modified for stunt work, would appear in the upcoming James Bond film [[No Time to Die]] due for release in 2020.<ref></ref>
