And this is beautiful!!  Watched a P? what has succeeded to give birth that mind alternative of Carl Thalamus!  One Touring Sport (much more sport that touring..) truly from sballo.  We hope that those of the Triumph listen to it and they watch it.  From Motorcycling:  Carl Thalamus, the Italian importer of Triumph English, has realized this interesting prototype.  It is not a provocazione but, he has the precise attempt to arrive to the "good ones intenditor", that is the parent company (than in fact he has financed the experiment).  Of the rest already he has happened, the baby speed testifies it.  In the comparisons of the Triumph the Thalamus role is changing.  It is not limited to more and more often sell their motion but ago from "adviser".  To create this Tiger then Sport, has been a lot amusing because the designer of the original model is a great fan of motion and the agreement with Thalamus is total.  The maxienduro they are a phenomenon been born in the desert of Paris-Dakar and today arrived on the freeways to the cruise speed of the sedans of lusso.  Their role therefore is changed, sure stradalizzato, is more and more close to the granturismo.  Carl, like personal motion, has one Tiger 95'.  He uses every day for varies reasons to you:  he is fast, it is comfortable, he does not become orrenda with the trunk and in city he has beam of steering and excursion of the suspensions adapted to wriggle in the traffic and to survive to holes, tombini, tracks and pavĀ».  But something lacks them, perhaps a little badness.  Here because in the Thalamus mind the thought is been born to take part heavy on aesthetic and mechanical.  Indugiamo beyond and we do not see as it is made.  The tank is that one originates them, the posterior beacon is of the previous model of the Speed Triple while of Speed puts into effect them is handle-bar, commandos, instruments and brakes.  The posterior wheel comes from sprint the ST, with the relative monoarm and suspension res-adapt you to the scope.  The front wheel, to beams, is from 18 inches and has been realized ad hoc for the Tiger Sport.  The cupolino, all the cupolino, he is transparent, in order to offer greater visual the possible one in the sport guide and city.  The thing entusiasmante than this plan is but the motor.  Draft of the three cylinders from 149 CV that the Daytona equips!  The maximum speed of 250 kmh will be autolimitata.  Between the created particularitities purposely for this prototype there is the group saddleback-travelling case that is opened laterally, the large noise suppressor shot towards the high, cupolino and the fianchetti.  The possibilities to see it in production in a near future are tutt' other that remote, a lot depends on the other large innovationes that bubble in pot to Hinckley.  Assumed, comprised price between that one of the Speed Triple and the Daytona
