Most of the Triumph range is made in Thailand. They have two or three factories there. Also as a matter of interest Royal Enfields are made in India. Despite getting old just sold an RE Interceptor 650, quite a nice bike.

That is due to change very soon. The Hinkley factory is currently setting up to build all bikes for the UK market

I think OP wants to know if that is a production Triumph, something someone has made up in a shed, or a Chinese copy of a Triumph.

I am almost certainly wrong but it’s looks like a American spec bike, with them silly handlebars
