TRIUMPH'S MONSTER MIDDLEWEIGHT

Triumph will launch its all-new, 600cc four-cylinder sportbike at England’s annual NEC show this fall, says Motor Cycle News. In the works for more than three years, the fuel-injected, ram-air-boosted T6 has a conventional fork, twin-spar aluminum frame and double-sided swingarm. Ergonomics are repli-racer aggressive, similar to Yamaha’s class-leading YZF-R6. The fully faired machine is said to weigh 410 pounds dry and post a top speed of 165 mph. If the latter is true, the T6 will be the fastest middleweight on the road. Price has not been announced.
