The Isle of Man has been chosen as the venue for the international launch of a prestigious new Triumph motorcycle.
Fifty national press and bike journalists from all over the world have been invited to the event, which is being arranged for the new 'Street Triple R'.
The United States, Japan and leading European markets will be represented and the organisers are expecting 'media value' in excess of a million pounds from the coverage.
The Island has been chosen ahead of top European locations for the launch next week.
