The only Triumph I had was a 79 bonnie, the wet frame. I sold it. To be honest with you I could not stay on the bike for more than a mile or two, too much vibration. The Norton Commandos had the Isolastic suspension system which isolated the rider from the vibes. It didn't get rid of them, but I could get on a Norton and do 300 miles easy and didn't have to stop for gas. 60 mpg 6.3 gallon tank on the Interstate model. They also had about 55-60 HP and 58 foot lbs of torque. The 750's were known to do high 12's at about 110 out of the box. The Commando gathered quite a reputation, after all it was only around for 5-6 years, sold only about 100,000 units, took Kenny Roberts and Yamaha 3 years to be able to beat it on the oval. etc....
