Very cool, looks like it's going to be a great game too.

Playing video games is my wintertime stress relief, I have to sneak up in my office to play a few games on the XBox 360, my wife thinks I'm a nerd, but who cares, I have a really cool bike to even it out.

Pretty sweet. I love the metal gear games and in the last one Snake rode a BMW. Glad to see he switched brands

Hard to tell, but I don't see the off-road only triangle (hey, they put in almost every other detail). Nice to see it has some sixty8 accessories, too!

most likely stock...he has to work in covert conditions...and since the stock exhaust isn't much louder than a Nats fart...that would be the way to go...HA!

I haven't played that game for 10 years? 10 Years? the first one? Holy crap...I need to break out the PS2 and play something...

I may get Old...but I'm never growing UP!

Probably explains why the reflectors are gone

A Triumph was also in the end of Metal Gear Solid 3
Don't remember if it was a single or parallel twin.

Find out! We demand facts!

Or at the very least, rigidly defined areas of doubt!

You're gonna love this...

Its not just the Bonnie...



but also Speed Triple Matte Black that's going to be in the games. I'll have to find the pic of it and post

Chori is right too about the a Bonnie being on Metal Gear 3. I believe its a Twin Bonnie.

I DO hope that they feature a 675 in there though



SO STOKED that Triumph bikes will be featured on one of the coolest games ever. Its a good match...the COOLEST BIKES on the COOLEST GAMES!
