Triumph: Bonnie is back!
From Marlon Brando to Steve Mc Queen passing through James Dean and Clint Eastwood, the Bonneville Triumph (Bonnie for those in the known) is the perfect example of a legendary motorbike. It's time for the brand to reveal a brand new collection, including the Thruxton R 1200. Iconic!
Triumphs are eternal
No less than 5 new versions of its iconic model have been revealed by Triumph. On the menu, some new motors for the T 120, T 120 Black as well as the Thruxton and Thruxton R which own a 1200cm3 twin. Only the Street Twin has to deal with a 900cm3 twin. No doubt, Triumph completely plays the neo-retro card with a style, some colors and proportions inspired by the 60's combined with some modern materials and technologies. Any bonuses? Inspired by Harley-Davidson who knows how to satisfy us with a lot of accessories, Triumph unveils a range of 470 accessories to customize your Bonneville.
Zoom on the Thruxton R
A good hundred of horsepower, a partnership with Barbour for the style, a perfect handling and a technique equipment range thanks to some Brembo mono-block stirrups, Showa large diameter fork, Ohlins rear suspension and Pirelli Diablo Rosso Corsa tyres: there's not much to say about the Thruxton R that should be on our roads by next Spring. Moreover, rumor has it that after Marlon Brando and Steve Mc Queen, it would be Brad Pitt, George Clooney and Bradley Cooper's time to ride the motorbike in the advertising campaign. Well gentlemen it's about time to pass your motorcycle driving license!
