The [[Triumph]] '''Terrier''' was styled to appeal to the young enthusiast. The choices available in the smaller capacity machines were mainly utilitarian [[two-stroke]] [[motorcycles]] that were dull in performance and looks. The Terrier was a miniature version of Triumph's Speed twin, and it was powered by a [[four stroke]] motor, like a proper bike. The following year a larger capacity sports model, the [[Triumph Tiger Cu]]b, was introduced. This motor design was the basis for the BSA single cylinder models, from 250 to 500cc. | The [[Triumph]] '''Terrier''' was styled to appeal to the young enthusiast.
