Smitty comes through and delivers them their first win. So happy for him and Triumph! They’ve made such fast progress, getting a win in the second year of the bike’s and team’s existence is wild.
Cool to see. Bike is the real deal.
Color me not surprised it was this soon..... They did not pussy-foot the design of that bike.
And just two points out of the points lead! They have a legit shot at the title.
Stoked on both!

Man that bike looks good out there. Stoked for him and the team, pretty sure that was FXRs first win as a gear brand too right?
Happy for Scuba and all the people that’ve put in the hours that it takes to build a team that had to “hit the ground running” and is already winning.
After riding a 250 Truimph, I hope the team gets a great 450 rider to show its potential too.
Awesome, cant wait for the 450
Wish they would make a 350
Crazy how they can win a Supercross Main Event but can't figure out what parts go on their dirt bike.
How many people are looking for triumphs for sale today? I think a lot of people.
Explain please...
Big congratulations to the entire development team and race team. What a journey!
Bought my Triumph in Oct. Bike was assembled with master link clip on backwards. I didn't realize and it popped off midair at Cahuilla with 5 hours on it. Chain smashed the alternator cover.
That was in November. Dealership has had my bike since then because apparently there are two small restrictor bolts inside the alternator cover. Triumph lists them as the same part # and identical, dealership claims one needs to be hollow and one needs to be solid. Last week I was told the issue needs to be forwarded to England to figure out wtf is going on.
So owned my Triumph for 4 months. Dealership has had it for 3 of those.
Yes please. PLEASE!
Not doubting your story, but how do you determine that the clip was put on backwards after the chain comes apart?
Nah that's a fair question. Same question the dealer asked me lol. But I took pictures of my bike the day I got it cuz I was super excited. First ever new bike. And I was able to zoom in far enough to see the clip backwards.
Really happy for RC 👍 😀
Pit Row
Congratulations to Triumph
I think Forkner will win East.
Yup! That would be awesome!
That's crazy. Not sure who your dealer is, but someone there is definitely not doing their job. There is something called follow up that they should be doing - A LOT! I'm sure if one of their racers broke a side case they'd have it in days.
You need to call Triumph Motorcycles America at (678) 854-2010 and ask for help. Sounds like your dealer is dropping the ball.
I feel this massive achievement is being somewhat glossed over by the moto media because of course all the attention has to be on the snotty one. He was quick all night, and has been so far this season, bar a few mistakes that he unfortunately tends to make. Smith looks better on the Triumph that the star bike, and the bike as a whole looks like a very competitive package. This team and bike is going to be in the mix regularly moving forward
I knew Smith was going to get them their first win!
How tf is this downvoted?...
I’ve been told that they are…by some guy at a bar Friday-night in Scottsdale…🐐…says he rides a Triumph…claims he’d won a few races back in the day…
I don’t know if I believe him. 🤣
Stoked for both 🤙🏼
Well according to my dealer they've been trying to contact Triumph repeatedly and Triumph is slow to respond. And when they did finally respond all they did was send them the parts diagram. But I talked to my dealer last week and apparently Triumph North America has escalated the issue to the main Triumph office in the UK.
As far as talking to Triumph North America directly I have directly contacted them twice. Each time they just told me to have my dealer contact them.b
Great achievement, stoked for all the guys and girls in the UK that bust out laps all over the place in almost total secrecy, right under our noses.
Hard not to pull the pin on a 450, i live 5 mins from the factory, and i think the nearest dealer is over an hour away .
Dealer launches this week, so will try and have a look.
Not sure if this is what you need, but a quick look on Triumphs site leads you to this.
