CELEBRATING A ROYAL WEDDING
By 1982, riumph was on the ropes. They were unable to re-engineer their bikes they way they needed to, r even produce enough units to make a profit, ue to their severe financial constraints. It was thought that lower-volume, igher-profit "special models" might save the day. Several were proposed and a few were tried. Most fizzled in the marketplace. One such effort was the T140LE Royal Wedding, uilt to commemorate the British royal wedding of Prince Charles to Lady Diana Spencer. Built in very low numbers, elieved to be less than 1,000, he Royal Wedding was styled differently, epending on which market it was intended for. Why did they do it? Who knows? To build two different models of the same limited-edition special that was already being built in minuscule numbers doesn't make much sense today looking back. But who knows what they were thinking at the time.


US-SPEC ROYAL WEDDING
The US-spec Royal Weddings looked pretty much like normal T140ESs with with mag wheels. But they got a model-specific black paint job with gold pinstriping and no kneepads, ual front disk brakes, nd blacked out fork sliders and headlight brackets.
