Spain’s Tamarit Motorcycles has won Triumph Originals 2026 with Miura, a custom motorcycle built around the Triumph Scrambler 400 XC. The project came through a field of seven builds, taking both the largest share of the public vote and the highest combined score awarded by the judging panel.

The competition asked builders to create a Scrambler “Time Capsule” using a motorcycle from Triumph’s 400, 900 or 1,200cc ranges. Alongside Tamarit, teams from Canada, China, France, Italy, the UK and the USA entered the event. Miura’s appeal lay in its distinctive reading of the brief and the standard of its construction.

How the winner was selected

The final result combined the public vote with scores from an international judging panel. Tamarit secured 33 per cent of the public vote and also achieved the panel’s highest combined score. Triumph Chief Product Officer Steve Sargent led the jury. Its members included Chase McQueen, grandson of Steve McQueen; author and journalist Eric Hendricx; German motorcycle journalist and FUEL magazine founder Rolf Henniges; and Satoshi, co-founder and lead mechanic of Japan’s Fonk Motorcycles.

Sargent said Miura addressed the Time Capsule idea in an original way while showing a high level of design, engineering and execution. He also pointed to the creativity and technical ability represented across the global custom scene. In his view, the Scrambler remains a highly adaptable starting point for personal builds, linking the desert sleds of the 1960s with today’s 400cc, 900cc and 1200cc models. Miura therefore finishes at the top of this year’s Triumph custom competition after winning over both audiences involved in the decision.
