Best looking bike ever and sounds awesome.

[@paulbaker9064]

Something magic about that 3x sound , like a miniature Rolls Royce Merlin . 👍

[@TheClassicMotorcycleChannel2]

They have a real following don't they Paul!

[@2opler]

I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but that to me, is the best looking bike ever.

[@davefox8948]

I had a chance to buy a Hurricane when I was a kid but passed on it because of the reliability issues. 40 years later, I still regret passing it by. The sound and power of that BSA Rocket III motor with the stock pipes is still music to my ears.

[@mikeymike3240]

The nicest British bike ever made.awesome. 😎👍👍👍🇬🇧

[@TheClassicMotorcycleChannel2]

A lot of people love this one eh!

[@derekcollins1972]

They really do need to be ridden.That gorgeous triple is so unique.

[@efword1200]

Glad to see this historic beaut being looked after and ridden the way it deserves!

[@ruggedtourer]

Music to my ears ❣️

[@alistairbernard9574]

What a fantastic Motorcycle ride.. Good commentary too Dave. 👌

[@donparker1823]

Great sound, great look, great job of restoration. This was a pleasure to see and hear. Thanks

[@boboshop55]

Looks great! Sounds FANTASTIC!! 👍👍

[@garyhardman8369]

That exhaust note... Epic!

[@TheClassicMotorcycleChannel2]

Too right Gary!

[@Pokemongold88]

Only problem with this video, its not long enough. Keep up the good work cheers

[@TheClassicMotorcycleChannel2]

Glad you liked it Tim, that was pretty much all the decent footage we had of the bike on the day, sort of ran out of time to shoot :)

[@buddhastaxi666]

saw one these new in a shop window in the middle of the night walking down a street i cannot remember but 50 years ago i recall seeing that amazing tank seat deaign. it was too dear for me...... Triumph shoukd do a retro model....one lean and fragile and real performance....not like their 900 Bonnevilles fat and gutless...but gracile alloy and grunty

[@williamt.slaydonsr.682]

I bought a Triumph TR 750 in 1975 just out the Navy, Boy was that a mistake selling it.

[@freemenofengland2880]

Great video - Perfect bike for that road! What could be better for a country lane bimble?!

[@geoffreycarson2311]

I Had a Go On one In The 70s Only a Short TRIP Bloody HEAVY !!!and Dangerouse !!! Its LIGHT on the FRONT end ?and Top Heavy ?BUT STILL Epic !!!!!a Limey g

[@philmuskett265]

Interesting that it was made for the US market and the pipes are on the UK side.

[@georgeclark2721]

Always thought these looked brill only ever saw one in a classic showroom in Hastings and if I rember he had two in!

[@robertmoxom9445]

That's Cosmo's shop.He has sold a fair few Huricanes,

[@brucegeange7082]

Definitely need to replace the rear sprocket with a 47 tooth .

[@paulbaker9064]

Tricky to balance the 3 carbs, the middle one needs to be a bit richer to aid in cooling?

[@TheClassicMotorcycleChannel2]

Hey Paul, yeah, we've heard a few people saying that actually! Thanks for watching the videos.

[@ericsissenwein3601]

The start of the video made me pucker: Lawrence of Arabia anyone?

[@duanetrivett750]

The x 75 was designed by Graig Better . I think it was the best looking Trident. Very rare nowadays.

[@geoffreycarson2311]

Craig VETTER !😁g

[@alainhenry1729]

That front brake is totally useless but nice looking like the bike itself I have the same on my 1971 TR 6

[@thomasstutzig1005]

♥️♥️♥️

[@CurtisLittlechild92]

Beautiful machine. What's the year of manufacture?

[@robertmoxom9445]

Some late 72, most are 1973

[@geoffreycarson2311]

1972-3 I Recon g

[@redtobertshateshandles]

Honda 750/4 or one of these?? I'll take the Hurricane. Yeah, I know .... I make bad choices.

[@geoffreycarson2311]

ALL DAY LONG !!!I HAD A Usella Andess Lookalike !!!!YRS Ago COULD NOT !!!!!AFFORD Her ???????BUT STILL WANTED HER ?????😔😍😛😂😂ITS THE LOOKS !!!GOD Help us 😔lol g

[@daveco1270]

As far as Triumphs go, I've never been a fan of these Hurricanes. I can appreciate them for what they are...they're definitely of an era, very USA 1970's tricked out vibe. I'll take a 60's Bonneville or TR6 over this one anyway... even though it's probably worth more than those other bikes.

[@brucegeange7082]

Daveco you really should ride one. I've owned numerous twins and triples and for me the only bike that trumps a triple is the TSS

[@genebrown5028]

Not enough dialogue
