Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain X Triumph partnership revealed, more at London Comic-Con
On the official Metal Gear Solid Facebook and Twitter, Konami shared a short video teasing a partnership between Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain and Triumph, the famous motorcycle company.

The collaboration makes sense, as Triumph motorcycles have been featured in the series before: Big Boss rode a Triumph Bonneville in Peace Walker, and EVA in Metal Gear Solid 3 and 4. The motorcycle seen in the MGSV trailer is probably a Triumph as well.
MCM London Comic-Con starts at the end of this week. On their official website, Konami UK writes:
Visit our Metal Gear booth at London MCM May 2015!
That’s right Metal Gear fans, we’re going to be at MCM London on the 22nd – 24th of May 2015 bringing you a Metal Gear Solid themed booth with all the latest MGS merchandise including our brand new 1984 collection.
If you’re attending London MCM in May this year you can expect to see all kinds of Metal Gear memorabilia! Visitors will have the opportunity to pose at the booth for high quality picture that could even be featured on the Konami UK Facebook page.
We’ll have a wealth of Metal Gear merch for you to get your hands on at our official MGS booth as well as a wide variety of Metal Gear apparel available from clothing brand Insert Coin.
That’s not all! For those of you who won’t be attending MCM in May, we’ll be ensuring you have regular opportunities to get your hands on Konami merchandise outside of the event. Make sure you keep an eye on our social channels (Twitter & Facebook) so you don’t miss out on daily prizes!

Eva also road one in Metal Gear Solid 3!
Their bikes are awesome, there’s a shop of there’s about 15 minutes from where I live, with a show floor and everything. Awesome bikes
The one in MGS3 wasn’t a Triumph right? Could be wrong though.
She rides a Triumph when she leaves BB after they finally have sex,you can see it here at 8:40

Ah, right. Thanks, added it to the post.
glad to help,Nyx!
Sorry for the late reply but yeah, after the game came out I finally went to check it the shop since I never knew what it was haha.
It was. It’s even in the credits If I remember correctly. The Triumph Bonneville has been on MGS3, MGSPW and MGS4. The one EVA leaves at the end it’s a T1000 model, similar to the one Big Boss arrives at the beginning of PW. The one on MGS4 that Eva and Snake use it’s a T100.
Thanks for the info!
Glad to help!
Hey, target is selling the collectors edition for those who haven’t had a chance yet.

Nice find! Thanx!
Just preordered mine !!
Thank you very much for the news
I’ve been looking for one over the past couple of weeks
No master race edition :'(
I am desperately trying to get a collectors edition in the EU for less than 150 EUR … but I don’t find anything. All the “normal priced” ones are sold out. Damn it…
Where do you live? It is still available in the Netherlands.
Living in Paris at the moment… – nothing available here. 🙁
Man, don’t do this to me Kojima… I have my chopper for 2,5 years now. I can’t affort buying a Triump! 🙂 Just kidding, l love my motorcycle.
If triumph comes out with a mgsv commemorative model, i’d sell my bike in an instant to pick one up.
What/which bike do have bro?
I got a beat up 2000 honda vfr. Been looking for something new for a while now, but I figure as long as its running theres really no need. What are you riding?
I’m riding a Daelim Daystar 125cc

It’s not my photo but it is the closest l could find online like mine. I’ll take a pic tomorrow and post it here.
That bike looks pretty cool. Ive been looking at the royal enfields lately, want one with a sidecar. next time I’ll post a pic of mine too
Got her with 900miles, and now shes got 44k 🙂 Got into an accident, so now shes my old beat work horse.
Oh man, when I read the title of this article I was thinking about this Triumph: http://uk.triumph.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-GB-Site/en_GB/Home-Show?brand=triumph
I really don’t know anything about motorcycles xD.
– 105 days
For a moment I thought this was about woman’s underwear.
Fuck yeah! This pretty much confirms that the motorcycles won’t be just a cutscene thing and that there’s a possibility there’s going to be many of them! 😀
Thanks for the news!
I knew the London Comic-Con was happening but had no real intreset in going until now.
Just bought my ticket (only £15). I will look around at what else is going on but my main port of call will be the MGS booth.
Thanks again for the news! 😀
Nice, have fun!
Thanks! Will do :).
That’s cool
“Don’t forget fans! Your are not a real fan if you don’t buy buy buy!”
I need to get a motorcycle someday, this will be cool to have :D.
A hedio kojima motorcycle!
I’m gonna be up there for the weekend so I’m looking forward to it.
Enjoy!
