Motorcycle News has awarded Triumph as the 2024 Manufacturer of the Year alongside five other awards in its annual recognition of manufacturers, products and dealers.
Alongside Manufacturer of the Year, Triumph has also secured:
Overall Bike of the Year, which was awarded to the new Triumph Speed 400. Launched at the beginning of 2024, the Speed 400 was aimed at a new class of rider with its stripped back style, responsive performance and agility.
The judges state the Speed 400 is “a middleweight bike that’s made a big impact, charming new riders and experienced bikers alike".
This marks three years in a row Triumph has taken the top spot in this category. It was previously claimed by the Tiger Sport 660 in 2022 and the Street Triple 765 RS in 2023
The Speed 400, introduced at the start of the year, has also won Best A2 Bike
Best Performance Naked has been awarded to the Triumph Street Triple RS which has previously been crowned ‘Overall bike of the year’. The 765cc triple engine which is used in the FIM Moto2 World Championship gives riders the who want a track and street bike, the best of both worlds in one package.
MCN said, “Seventeen years after Triumph graced their showrooms with the first Street Triple, it still pushes the boundaries of what a naked machine can do.
“It borders on being both a super-naked, and supersport. Yet it does so, without the price or the detrimental aspects of each... Kudos, Triumph”.
The Best Adventure Bike (sub 1000cc) was awarded to the Triumph Tiger 900 GT Pro. Following a revamp of the model in 2023, the Tiger 900 GT Pro has been recognised as the ultimate road-focused middleweight adventure motorcycle.
MCN Judges said, "Triumph’s Tiger 900 GT Pro is now all the road adventurer you could ever need.
“On the go the Tiger’s light weight makes it instantly reassuring to ride while its suspension strikes a lovely balance between firm enough for sporty riding and plush for comfort, with the ability to tweak the shock’s damping on the go. It’s a bike you instantly feel at home on,” conclude the judges.
Lastly, the Triumph Trident 660 was voted WoMCN Rider Biker of the Year. The Trident has been extremely popular with both new and experienced riders thanks to its combination of punchy linear torque and power low down across the whole rev range.
MCN said, "It’s fun, light and well balanced, with thoughtful features such as the tapered seat and tank as well as confidence-inspiring OE tyres.
“When all this is combined, it’s clear to see why the terrific Trident wheelspins away with the 2024 WoMCN Rider of Year trophy."
