When Triumph's Meriden factory resumed production in April 1975 after an 18-month workers' occupation, one of the new management's first priorities was to find a lightweight motorcycle to augment the firm's range of large-capacity twins. The result was the UK assembly of Moto Guzzi's 125 sports roadster by Triumph at Meriden. Powered by a single-cylinder two-stroke engine driving via a five-speed gearbox, the Guzzi was an inspired choice, being as fast or faster than the Japanese opposition while offering excellent handling and economy at a bargain price.
