The Street Twin is Triumph’s most contemporary Bonneville, powered by an all-new high torque 900cc engine. It comes with unique character, distinctive sound, stripped-back styling and a dynamic riding experience.
The Bonneville T120, which is inspired by the legendary 1959 Bonneville, is powered by the all-new Bonneville 1200cc high torque engine. Triumph says the Bonneville T120 features a wealth of original detailing and a new level of standard equipment, including deep chrome multi-piece badges, grab rail and wheel rims, centre stand, heated grips and innovative twin skinned chrome exhaust headers and peashooter style silencers – developed specifically to minimise heat discoloration and deliver that authentic ‘straight through’ pipe run.
The third motorcycle revealed is the new 1200cc Thruxton R. With genuine poise, power and performance, it is the ultimate modern classic café racer. With sporting ergonomics, clip-on bars, fully adjustable suspension and 17-inch front wheel, for stunning handling and agility, combined with Triumph’s signature ride dynamic of neutrality, agility and stability, the new Thruxton R is claimed to deliver a truly engaged and thrilling ride.
