Early Days

Before entering the motorcycle market, the company focused on manufacturing bicycles and sewing machines from its factory in Coventry, England. It was until 1902 when the first Triumph motorcycle was released, and it was received very well by the public. The design was a bicycle with a small single-cylinder engine attached to the frame. 

Market Dominance

The company began dominating the fast-growing motorcycle market as it started creating competitive racing models which had a more powerful 450 cc engine. This boosted their popularity, and by 1910, over a thousand Triumph motorcycles were being produced every year. During World War I, Triumph supplied Europe and the United States with their fast and reliable motorcycles which were used to meet transportation needs on the battlefield.
