  • New book out in July 2009 by John Rosamond on the Meriden Triumph Co-Op published by Veloce

  • intresting to know that that new 900 twin actually worked. i thought it was just a mock up, what a shame!

  • plus the pound was at a all time high against the dollar. which as i remember a brand new at the time 1981 bonneville was around 3600 to 3800 dollars, lot of money in those days.

  • Why couldn't Meriden be saved when the Americans still have their Milwaukee ?

    Heavily subsidised by their banks and politically savvy importers, the Japanese were dumping their unwanted motorcycles all over the world at heavily discounted prices just to clear stock- something smaller European manufacturers could not compete against
