TRIUMPH ORIGINALS | PASCAL LAUZON

CANADA

This custom Speed Twin 1200 RS seamlessly blends modern performance with classic styling. It’s finished in a deep graphite and gold custom paint scheme, accented by hand-laid pinstriping, and features the vintage Triumph heritage logo on the tank — a thoughtful nod to the brand’s iconic history.

A bespoke high-performance exhaust with hand-bent stainless headers and a polished finish delivers a deeper, sharper exhaust note. Combined with Öhlins rear shocks and gold front forks, this custom build not only enhances the RS’s sharp handling but also adds distinctive, handcrafted character to an already legendary platform.

What influences and inspirations shape your design and craftsmanship?

The heritage logo on the tank certainly assisted in the design allowing us to blend the past with the present. We wanted to build a bike that was straightforward but at the same time, an eye catcher.

What made you want to enter Triumph Originals?

We wanted to build a bike that can be appreciated around the world. This was a great opportunity to display the quality of work that our dealership is capable of doing. 

What are the key ideas behind your custom build for this competition?

The ideas revolved around customizing a motorcycle without making drastic changes. In that, we wanted to build a bike that is recognizable while having distinct differences from the production model.

What should people notice and appreciate about this custom bike?

People should notice that this build once was an idea on a piece of a paper. The effort and passion put into the build should be appreciated as Pascal and the team did an amazing job.
