I don't hate it but if this was a groundbreaking original idea 20 years ago then we've seen a 1000 (better) copies since.
Iffy exhaust, that's where most of the money went.

Not offensive but why feel the need to run wets and rework that exhaust, would be more palatable then...

That exhaust is awful, rest is OK but pity he went with that exhaust

It's clearly a celebration of what was on trend 25 years ago.

I guess the number plate hanger goes on those two stub ends under the exhaust, and is too ugly for photographing.
Given it's a Triumph, he should have taken a SSSA. Would be bang on for period cool, and allow the weird bits of exhaust by the right heel somewhere else to go. Funny how that article didn't select this angle for a detail shot
Why has it still got a pillion hanger?

It's interesting to look at. The low bars and tiny fork travel would be one downside for me.
The tail light just behind the single seat,then the cans beyond that look odd at first,but that's the same for anything a bit different,it takes a while to recalibrate.
I've never seen a Triumph I've wanted to own,they seem to make 'meh' bikes,but I quite like this one.

It doesn't seem that crazy to me.
Very disappointing.

Having a 95 900 I would have to say ...
I prefer mine
Not sure what is going on with the seat and exhaust - but it doesn't work.
But if the creator likes it, that's okay.
I have seen some which are not just form over function.
