Triumph Motorcycles, the UK’s leading large-capacity motorcycle manufacturer, will be hosting TFEST later this month (Saturday 22/ Sunday 23 April), the annual celebration of its iconic motorcycle range.
Taking place at Triumph dealers throughout the UK, TFEST is a fantastic opportunity for fans to view the entire range, including the latest edition to the Triumph family as dealers unveil the stunning new Street Triple 765.
Each local dealer event will include great entertainment such as live music, new season clothing displays, food and much more. TFEST visitors are advised to check the details with their local dealership.
Paul Lilly, general manager of Triumph UK and Ireland, said: “There’s been a great amount of buzz around our newly launched models, all of which have been extremely well received by both the media and the public. Now that all of our new models are in dealers we want to make sure that our fans have the best opportunity to see them and book themselves in for a test ride. We would recommend that visitors reserve their places for the event; TFEST is always extremely popular and we’re anticipating an even bigger turn out this year.”
Triumph, the UK’s leading large-capacity motorcycle manufacturer, has launched a new competition giving owners the chance to have their customised Triumph on display at Bike Shed London 2017 at Tobacco Dock.
To enter, owners must post a photo of their customised motorcycle on the Triumph UK Facebook page before April 14th 2017, along with a brief description (under 150 words) of its modifications and why it’s been customised the way it has.
All entries will be reviewed by an expert panel before five finalists are chosen and put to a public vote to decide the winner.
As well as having their bike on the Triumph stand amongst some of the best custom motorcycles in the world from pro builders, show builders and manufacturers, the winner will also receive a £250 retail Triumph clothing voucher and four free tickets to the event.
Avon Tyres has ramped up production of its acclaimed Cobra motorcycle tyre in response to the successful launch of the new Triumph Bonneville Bobber.
The Cobra product is the OE fit rubber on which every Bobber rolls off the production line, with the bespoke front and rear tyres specially designed for this premium custom bike.
The new twin-cylinder machine appeared at the end of last year to massive critical acclaim from journalists, industry influencers and the great British riding public.
High demand for the Bobber since its launch means that Avon’s Melksham-based factory has expanded production for the Cobra tyres, investing in additional manufacturing capacity to satisfy increased demand for the bike.
The Bobber’s radical chassis and styling meant that by working closely with Avon’s in-house development team, both firms were able to come up with the perfect riding solution – an all-new Cobra tyre, with special carcass construction and materials to suit the Bobber’s unique set-up.
Speaking about the production increase, Doug Ross, Avon Tyres’ Head of Global Motorcycle Tyre Sales, said: “This project has been a fantastic success for both Triumph and Avon. It’s also a real win for British manufacturing, showcasing the best of British at the highest level.”
Triumph Motorcycles, the UK’s leading large-capacity motorcycle manufacturer, has announced prices for its new 2017 Street Triple range.
Lighter than its predecessor with higher-specification brakes, tyres and suspension, the highest level of finish ever and an all-new gullwing swingarm, the Street Triple S is priced at £8,000 and has been built to deliver a thrilling, agile and addictive everyday ride.
Taking the performance, specification and finish to an even higher level and built to be the definitive street fighter with a specification set up for focused road riding, the Street Triple R will cost £8,900 when it hits UK dealers. A dedicated low ride-height version of the ‘R’ with its own unique suspension and seating set-up will also be available at the same cost.
Metallic paint options are also available at a cost of £125 on the ‘S’ and ‘R’ models.
The range-topping RS model has been priced at £9,900 and delivers the most explosive and adrenaline-charged Street Triple experience ever, built to be at home on the track and a weapon on the road.
For those who don’t yet hold a full motorcycle licence, a dedicated A2 licence version of the ‘S’ is also available with its own unique 660cc engine for £7,700, making the Street Triple more accessible than ever.
Triumph fans yet to see the new line-up can see the 2017 range on display at the MCN London Motorcycle show at the ExCel exhibition centre from 17-19 February, 2017.
Triumph Motorcycles’ UK & Ireland marketing manager, Martin Hough, said: “Since its launch in 2007, the Street Triple range has been a passion point for Triumph fans worldwide. The feedback on the new models has been incredible and we’re looking forward to seeing what our many fans think of the range when it arrives in UK dealers this year. To register interest in a test ride and find out more about availability, please contact your local Triumph dealer.”
The wait is finally over for Triumph fans as the arrival of two new iconic models, the Bonneville Bobber and Street Scrambler, make their dealership debuts in a series of launch evenings across the UK on Thursday 23rd February.
The much-admired Bonneville Bobber will be taking centre stage. With its peerless attention to detail and its 1200cc tuned high torque Bobber engine, this brutal beauty has all the superb hallmarks of an iconic factory custom.
Retailing at £10,500 and powered by the critically acclaimed 1200cc high torque engine with a dedicated ‘Bobber’ tune for more torque and power lower down the rev range, the all-new Bonneville Bobber delivers a thrilling hot rod ride and a rich exhaust note.
Fans will also be able to get up close to the all-new Street Scrambler, the bold new addition to the Street Twin family. Providing a potent mix of 900cc powered fun and everyday rideability, the Street Scrambler brings a significant update in capability and style to the original iconic Triumph Scrambler.
Retailing at £8,900, the stunning Street Scrambler is ready to personalise with over 150 accessories to choose from.
The new T100 and T100 Black will also be in attendance – designed to satisfy today’s demand for bikes that combine timeless style with modern capabilities; the 900cc powered T100 range has all the accessibility of the Street Twin but detail of a true Bonneville model. And from Spring 2017 the T100 and T100 Black will also come with the option of a dealer fitted A2 licence kit making them even more accessible.
Café Racer fans will also be able to meet the recently launched Street Cup. Loaded with distinctive and beautiful urban sports features it has been designed to deliver all the attitude, personality and style of a contemporary custom café racer for today’s riders.
Paul Lilly, general manager of Triumph UK and Ireland, said: “There has been a great deal of anticipation around the bikes that we have recently introduced. They have been incredibly well received by the world’s media and the excitement among Triumph fans and riders in general has been building over the past few months. We are delighted to finally get the bikes into dealerships for everyone to see and recommend that people book their test rides as soon as they can.”

The Triumph stand will feature the full 2017 Street Triple line-up, including the S, R and RS models, each of which has its own unique level of power, performance, technology and suspension. Loaded with their own distinctive attitude, the variants range from addictive everyday fun to full track weapon.
Triumph freestyle riders Ernie ‘EDUB’ Vigil and Nick ‘Apex’ Brocha will also be performing in the Slide Arena twice per day to showcase the impressive capabilities of the new model.
A short Q&A session will follow to explain to fans what makes the 2017 Street Triple the most explosive, agile and intuitive performance street motorcycle that Triumph has ever built.
Triumph Motorcycles’ UK & Ireland marketing manager, Martin Hough, said: “We launched the first Street Triple in 2007 and it set the benchmark. Light, fast, fun, agile and stylish, it was a game changer and immediately popular. We look forward to seeing what the public think of our latest model which has all the DNA of the original bike but the highest specification we’ve ever seen on a Street Triple model.”

Purposeful Scrambler Style
The all-new Street Scrambler has been developed to deliver more purposeful and beautiful Scrambler style with unique features and detailing.
Sharing the same contemporary custom styling principles as the Street Twin, the new Street Scrambler has the iconic Bonneville silhouette combined with clean lines, minimal bodywork and modern finishes such as the elegant fuel tank with locking cap, black sculpted engine covers with the Triumph makers mark and engine badge, single throttle body with aluminium finisher and distinctive fined head and header clamps.
In keeping with the name and heritage, the Street Scrambler is packed with distinctive and beautiful scrambler finishes including;

More performance
There’s been a major step forward from the previous generation Scrambler in regards to engine, exhaust and rider focused technology. All combine to give more performance and a better riding experience from the new Street Scrambler.
Fitted with the critically acclaimed 900cc Bonneville high torque engine, the Street Scrambler delivers much more torque and power low down and in the mid-range, perfect for around town and light off-roading. A key update to the original Bonneville engine platform, the 900cc engine features a charismatic 270° firing interval for smooth, linear power delivery from the slick five-speed gearbox.
Enhanced throttle response from Triumph’s ride-by-wire fuel injection and cutting-edge liquid cooling system have been carefully integrated into the unique style of the Street Scrambler. This reduces fuel emissions and significantly improves fuel efficiency whilst providing smooth and precise drive for a higher level of control and rideability. This, combined with a new extended service interval of 10,000 miles (16,000km), dramatically reduces the overall cost of ownership.
The all new, more compact, high level twin Scrambler exhaust in beautiful stainless steel delivers a unique scrambler soundtrack, authentic scrambler style and features an intricate header run that cleverly integrates the cat box and is finished off with brushed stainless steel silencers with stylish contrasting black heat shields.
Enhanced capability
The stunning authentic Scrambler look comes complete with contemporary capability for maximum precision, control and safety and a wealth of advanced rider focused technology including:
Ride-by-wire – Enhanced rideability, safety and control, from a single throttle body.
Switchable ABS – A unique feature on the Street Scrambler that reinforces its capability is switchable ABS, accessed via the instrument menu.
This is the latest generation anti-lock braking system – introducing a new level of safety and control yet remaining unobtrusive and with minimal visual impact.
Switchable traction control – Switchable traction control, accessed via the instrument menu,
helps to maximise rider safety and control.
Torque assist clutch – Designed to reduce clutch lever effort for the rider, bringing a lighter touch and feel to the clutch and making it easier to ride, and for longer.
Liquid cooling – For cleaner and more fuel efficient riding (up to 36% better fuel economy).
LED rear light – Incorporated into the classic design, it creates a distinctive light pattern with enhanced power efficiency.
Engine immobiliser – Thatcham approved immobiliser with a transponder incorporated into new key.
USB charging socket – Mounted underneath the seat for convenient charging of essential devices.
Stylish twin clocks – Feature packed clock cleverly incorporating a digital menu system for fingertip control while riding.
With:
– Rev counter
– Gear position indicator
– Odometer
– Two trip settings
– Service indicator
– Range to empty
– Fuel level
– Average and current fuel consumption
– Clock
– Traction control settings
With a dedicated new Scrambler chassis and suspension the Street Scrambler has had a major upgrade to its capability and has been given more dynamic Scrambler poise.
Just like the Street Twin the new Street Scrambler chassis set-up is tuned to deliver a neutral and predictable ride. This, combined with the same confidence inspiring evolution to “stand-over” ergonomics for manoeuvrability and seat height considerably lower than the previous model, makes it a really accessible and fun bike for every type of rider.
Contributing to the commanding riding position and signature silhouette are the new model specific front forks and rear suspension units which raise the back end for additional ride height, wider tapered aluminium handlebars and classic larger sized wire spoked wheels. The new Street Scrambler comes with a large 19’’ wheel on the front and 17’’ wheel on the rear, both of which have stylish steel blacked out hubs and rims.
A further increase in specification comes from the new high value 2-piston sliding axial Nissin caliper with machined branding.
Accessible for everyone
To make the Street Scrambler even more accessible an A2 licence kit will be available for models from launch. The A2 kit can be easily fitted and just as easily removed by a Triumph dealer.
Local market legislative requirements will apply.
Add even more Scrambler style and capability
Just like the Street Twin, the new Street Scrambler has been designed with personalisation at its heart and has more than 150 accessories to deliver more rugged off road focus, more style and more everyday usability.
The off-road accessories include adjustable rear piggy back FOX shocks with threaded preload adjustment and 24 position compression damping, black glass-filled nylon headlight grill with a pressed steel matt black finish bezel, and a forged and machined aluminium handlebar brace in a black anodised finish (fitted with a stylish black or brown vinyl bar pad embroidered with the Triumph logo).
For even more style the accessories range includes slip-on Vance & Hines single exit silencers, a traditional scrambler twin bench seat and 70mm diameter bar end peep mirrors in anodised black or clear aluminium with a laser etched Triumph logo.
For everyday usability there are internally wired heated grips available along with a steel fabricated centre stand kit, an auxiliary power socket and cockpit mounting kit and highly durable engine bars.

Tearing up the rulebook all over again.
In 2007 Triumph launched the game changing original Street Triple, light, fast, fun, agile and stylish. With its thrilling triple engine, aggressive looks and intuitive handling it set the benchmark, redefined the roadster market and went on to become a favourite for passionate Street Triple
fans worldwide.
Today with the launch of the all-new 2017 Street Triple family Triumph have torn up the rule book up all over again – with the most explosive, exhilarating, agile and intuitive performance street motorcycles the brand has ever made.
With three distinct all new options, a race bred new 765cc engine with 3 levels of power and torque, new state of the art technology, the highest ever level of suspension, brakes and tyres, aggressive new looks and class leading weight – the Street Triple family sets a whole
new benchmark.
The new Street Triple line up
Introducing the Street Triple S, Street Triple R and Street Triple RS, each with their own unique tailor made level of power, performance, technology and suspension. All backed up by Triumph’s highly regarded capability, confidence and agile control.
To make the new Street Triple even more accessible the Street Triple R is also available in a dedicated lower ride height version (Street Triple RLRH), with its own unique suspension
and seating set-up.
EUROPE
To make the new Street Triple even more accessible the Street Triple R is also available in a dedicated lower ride height version of the ‘R’ (Street Triple RLRH) with its own unique suspension
and seating set-up, and also a dedicated A2 license version for the ‘S’ with its own unique 660cc engine, for riders who don’t yet hold a full license.
Street Triple S
Built to deliver a thrilling, agile and addictive everyday ride. With its new street fighter looks, the highest level of finish ever, lighter than its predecessor with higher spec brakes, tyres, suspension and all-new gullwing swingarm.
Street Triple R
Taking the performance, specification and finish to an even higher level, built to be the definitive street fighter with a specification and set up for focused road riding.
Street Triple RS
The most explosive and adrenaline charged Street Triple ever, built to be at home on the track, and a weapon on the road.
More power, performance, torque and a richer triple soundtrack
Developed from the celebrated race bred ‘Daytona’ engine, the new 765cc Street Triple engine delivers a major step up in power and torque. With more than 80 new parts including new crank, pistons and Nikasil plated aluminium barrels and an increased bore and stroke. The result is a significant advance in performance, particularly low-down and in the mid-range.
Each of the new models come with their own unique engine set-up, ECU and tune, each tailored to deliver the character, power and performance best suited to the bike’s style of ride and rider.
The ‘S’ tune provides up to 6.6% more peak power than the previous generation with 113PS @ 11,250rpm and delivers a 7.3% increase in peak torque at 73Nm @ 9,100rpm.
The ‘R’ tune, with its own model-specific crank shaft, increases peak power by up to 11.3% over the previous ‘R’ model, delivering 118PS @ 12,000rpm, and delivers a 13% increase in peak torque at 77Nm @ 9,400rpm.
The ‘RS’ tune delivers the highest level of performance ever for a Street Triple, with a power increase of up to 16% over the previous model, delivering 123PS @ 11,700rpm and a peak torque increase of 13%, providing 77Nm @ 10,800rpm.
There are riding modes on all models to help the rider better harness the increased power and torque in every riding condition. A richer sound track, from a lighter, free flowing exhaust and revised airbox delivers an intoxicating and more distinctive induction howl.
Stronger than ever acceleration and slicker gear changes are achieved through a combination of revised gearbox geometry and shorter 1st and 2nd gear ratios. In addition, on the R and RS models, a new slip and assist clutch set up delivers lighter clutch action and reduced lever effort for more control and riding comfort.
Rider focussed technology
The new Street Triple line up represents a major evolution in state of the art rider focussed technology for maximum control and safety.
Ride-by-wire
For a crisper, more precise and more accurate throttle response, with improved on/off throttle transition. Enabling different throttle maps, which combined with the ABS and traction control settings give up to 5 riding modes.
Riding modes
Linked to the ride-by-wire system all models have new riding modes, which adjust throttle response, ABS and traction control settings
Street Triple S featuring 2 riding modes: Road and Rain.
Street Triple R featuring 4 riding modes: Road, Rain, Sport and Rider Programmable.
Street Triple RS featuring 5 modes: Road, Rain, Sport, Rider Programmable and Track.
Full colour adjustable TFT instruments
The Street Triple R and RS feature all-new, angle adjustable colour 5” TFT instruments for riders to access the new on-board computer. There are three different screen display styles to choose from, pre-set to the riding modes and changeable easily on the move. To ensure that the screen is readable in all weather and light conditions, each of the three styles can be selected with ‘High’ or ’Auto’ contrast.
The Street Triple RS comes with an additional set of 3 more screen display styles. The second set presenting a more dynamic display theme and includes a lap timer that is exclusive to the ‘RS’.
On the Street Triple S there is a fully revised LCD instrument pack, as featured on the latest generation Speed Triple.

New switch cubes with 5-way joystick
To navigate the new instruments on the Street Triple R and RS there are all-new switch cubes with an intuitive 5-way joystick control that have been ergonomically optimised to be easy to use. The Street Triple S features the revised switch cubes set-up from the latest generation Speed Triple.
ABS
Switchable on the Street Triple R and RS through the ‘rider programmable’ riding mode, which can be adjusted to suit (with road and track ABS settings) or can be turned off completely if desired.
Switchable traction control
On the Street Triple S traction control settings can be managed via theinstrument menu, by selecting ‘road’ or ‘rain’ riding modes, each with a dedicated level of traction control built in.
On the Street Triple R and RS traction control is managed through the ‘rider programmable’ riding mode, by selecting the desired traction control setting either ‘road’, ‘rain’, ‘track’, ‘sport’ or ‘off’.
Quickshifter
The new Street Triple RS is fitted with a quickshifter allowing for clutchless upshifts that are up to 2.5 times quicker than a skilled rider using a standard clutch upshift. This can be added as an accessory option on the Street Triple S and R.
DRL Headlight
The new Street Triple line up all feature new headlights designed for a more aggressive stance.
The Street Triple R and RS featuring new distinctive LED Daytime Running Lights (DRL*). These bring an eye catching new light profile that makes the bike more easy to see out on the road and a lower energy consumption for greater long term durability. The DRL is an amazing 28x brighter than the previous generation bulb sidelight.
The Street Triple S features new LED position light headlights, with the LED position light 4.6x brighter than the previous generation bulb sidelight.
*Please note that the DRL function is not available in all markets – please check with your local Triumph marketing representative.
Gear position indicator
The Street Triple R and RS feature a useful gear position indicator, accessible through the 5” full colour TFT instruments.
Lighter, more agile and better handling
Leaner and meaner than ever the new Street Triple models are lighter than the previous generation, holding their position as the lightest bikes in class. This weight reduction combined with the new higher power 765cc engine delivers an amazing power to weight ratio that is key to the game changing performance of the new ‘Streets’ delivering a truly explosive and agile ride.
An all-new gullwing rear swingarm has been specifically designed for the new Street Triple range, resulting in increased longitudinal torsional stiffness, combined with an engineered reduction in lateral stiffness. This maximises stability at the higher speeds achieved by the new Street Triple, for greater rider confidence, with an optimised swingarm pivot position providing more natural resistance to compression of the rear suspension unit under hard acceleration. This brings a tighter corner exit capability and a more precise chassis behaviour, which can be felt on both road and track.
Higher specification suspension
The Street Triple S comes with Showa upside-down ø41mm separate function front forks with 110mm travel and a stepped preload-adjustable piggyback reservoir monoshock rear suspension unit.
The Street Triple R comes with ø41mm upside-down fully adjustable Showa separate function big piston front forks with 115mm travel for improved riding comfort without compromise and a Showa piggyback reservoir monoshock rear suspension unit.
And the Street Triple RS comes with the highest-specification Showa big piston ø41mm front forks, adjustable for preload, rebound and compression damping. The rear suspension unit is a premium Öhlins STX40 piggyback reservoir monoshock.
High specification brake set-up
The Street Triple S model is fitted with Nissin 2-piston sliding calipers on the front and a Brembo single piston sliding caliper on the back.
The Street Triple R has Brembo M4.32 4-piston radial monobloc calipers that deliver greatly improved stopping power over the previous Street Triple R and a Brembo single piston sliding caliper on the back.
The Street Triple RS has range topping Brembo M50 4-piston radial monobloc calipers on the front delivering class leading stopping power, with ratio and span adjustable lever and a Brembo single piston sliding caliper on the back.
High specification performance tyres
The Street Triple S and R models are fitted with premium Pirelli Diablo Rosso Corsa tyres which deliver sharp and precise handling as well as excellent stability and grip on the road.
The Street Triple RS comes with range topping Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP tyres, that deliver advanced sporting performance for road and the occasional track use.
More attitude and sharper styling
The new line-up all feature a significant styling evolution to deliver more attitude and a sharper more athletic poise, inspired by the ‘nose-down’ focussed attitude of the latest generation Speed Triples.
More contemporary and aggressive lines have been created with all new bodywork, flyscreen, radiator, cowls and new integrated air intake. In addition, the seat has been redesigned and restyled to deliver a sharper, sportier separate twin seat set-up without sacrificing rider or passenger comfort.
With an incredible attention to detail there is a higher level of finish across the entire motorcycle with many high quality details, including individual colour coded rear sub-frames for each model, re-designed rider heel guards and forged pillion footrest hangers.

Unparalleled heritage, stunning custom style
The latest addition to the Bonneville family, Triumph introduces the all-new premium custom Bonneville Bobber. Born in a unparalleled bloodline of Triumph bobber customs that stretch all the way back to the 1940’s it perfectly encapsulates the minimalist styling principles, muscular stance and purposeful engineering attitude of a genuine bobber.
Stripping the Bonneville T120 back to its purest essence it delivers all the hallmarks of a real bobber, with clean lines and low stance, single seat, wide flat bars, minimal bodywork and headlight, sculpted tank, wire spoked wheels with wide rear wheel and that all-important hard tail look.
The Bobber’s stunning features include an authentic battery box with stainless steel strap, bar end mirrors, rear mudguard loop, carb styled twin throttle bodies, broad adjustable levers, traditional rubber gaiters, classic rear ‘drum brake’ inspired hub, new side panel and sprocket cover with removable inspection cap.

There are four premium colour options to choose from;

Elegant engineering innovation
The Bobber introduces a first-in-class tailorable riding position, delivered by the beautifully crafted new floating aluminium seat, ergonomically optimised and sculpted for comfort with stitched deep foam pad, and minimal stylish clock – both adjustable to suit rider size and riding style.
The slotted seat design system allows the rider to position the seat ‘up and forward’ for dynamic riding in a roadster position and ‘down and backwards’ for cruising in a more traditional riding position. This is complimented by a simple quick-release function for the clock that enables riders to adjust the position to complement their seating and riding style.
Combined with a low seat height of 690mm when in the low seat position, the Bonneville Bobber is truly accessible to all riders.
Delivering the Bobber’s hallmark hard tail look is an innovative and distinctive ‘cage’ swinging arm with paddock stand bobbin mounts and hidden monoshock rear suspension.
Topping off the engineering innovation is the ‘clean line’ Bonneville technology packaging system, which includes the straight line hidden ‘cat box’ pipe run and the sensitive incorporation of rider focused technology such as the ECU, ABS modulator and immobiliser.
Thrilling sound and ride
Courtesy of the new generation Bonneville HT engine the Bobber delivers category-leading torque for a thrilling hot rod ride and a rich exhaust note. Powered by the critically acclaimed 1200cc high torque engine, as fitted in the Bonneville T120, there is a dedicated ‘Bobber’ tune for more torque and power lower down the rev range. The charismatic 270° firing interval ensures a smooth, linear power delivery from the slick six-speed gearbox.
Evolved specifically for the Bobber to maximise the riding character there is a unique twin airbox set up with two filters, unique intake and exhaust system and new output shaft.
Delivering the rich new Bobber soundtrack is a beautifully finished brushed stainless steel twin skin exhaust system with ‘slash cut’ sawn off peashooter silencers which is shorter and lighter than the Bonneville T120.
Just like all the new generation Bonnevilles, the Bobber engine delivers modern classic capability with ride-by-wire, for enhanced safety and control from twin classically styled throttle bodies, as well as a sensitively incorporated liquid cooling system with a unique radiator and larger fan. This brings better performance and cleaner, more fuel efficient riding.
The Bobber also has an extended service interval of 10,000 miles (16,000km).
Category defining capability, control and comfort
Our ambition was to deliver a genuine bobber – without compromise to the ride, comfort or rider
control, to have it ride just like a Triumph should.
With an all new bespoke frame to suit the unique Bobber geometry and minimal rear end, new forks with bespoke springing and damping, a low seat height, great stand over and first-in-class adjustable riding position the Bobber delivers a truly class defining riding dynamic.
Taking the capability to the highest level the Bobber also features a host of rider focused technology, including:
Ride-by-Wire – Delivering enhanced rideability, feel, safety and control, from a single throttle body.
Riding Modes – Linked to the ride-by-wire system there are two selectable riding modes; ROAD and RAIN. They are selectable via the new switch gear and command two dedicated throttle maps for maximum control and safety in different riding conditions
ABS – The latest generation anti-lock braking system – introducing a new level of safety and control yet remaining unobtrusive and with minimal visual impact.
Switchable Traction Control – Switchable traction control via the instrument menu helps to maximise rider safety and comfort.
Torque Assist Clutch – Designed to reduce clutch lever effort for the rider, bringing a lighter touch and feel to the clutch and making it easier to ride, and for longer.
LED Rear Light – Incorporated into the classic design, it creates a distinctive light pattern with enhanced power efficiency and excellent visibility.
Engine Immobiliser – Thatcham approved immobiliser incorporated into the new key with high value Triumph badge.
Stylish Clock – Feature packed and high quality clock cleverly incorporating a digital menu system for fingertip control while riding.

Two trip settings

Finally to enhance the authentic look the Bobber has classic wire-spoked wheels, with stylish black rims and inner tubes fitted with Avon Cobra tyres developed specifically for the Bobber.
With a signature ‘wider rear wheel’ Bobber set up it has a 19’’x2.5’’ on the front, fitted with an Avon Cobra AV71 for reduced mass for high-speed manoeuvrability, and 16’’x3.5’’ wider wheel fitted on the rear, with a category-first AV72 radial tyre with cobra tread pattern for class-leading stability.
Canvas for individual style
The Bonneville Bobber has been designed with customising in mind with over 150 accessories available for more style, detailing and comfort, and for even more performance.
For even an more distinctive character there are high ‘ape hanger’ bars, a statement rider seat and bar end peep mirrors.
For riders who are looking for more long distance comfort there is a stylish comfort seat in a ribbed and quilted version, a heated grip kit and a cruise control kit
To deliver even more performance to the Bobber, Triumph is introducing a new partnership with FOX with a dual branded adjustable rear suspension unit plus a range of new Bobber exhausts from Vance and Hines with beautifully machined aluminium end caps which are adjustable to change the profile.
There is a more distinctive and elegant alternative multi-function 5 inch headlamp – Triumph’s first full LED headlight. This comes with a signature style LED DRL (daytime running light) or LED position light (depending on market). With beautiful Triumph branding and class leading performance both versions will be fully homologated.
To make it even easier for riders to personalise their Bobbers, we’ve also created two exciting ‘inspiration’ kits to use as the starting point to build a Bobber custom, or to have fitted by a dealer as a complete set – the traditional ‘Old School’ kit and the drag racer ‘Quarter Mile’ kit.

Iconic British motorcycle brand, Triumph, has launched its own Approved pre-owned motorcycles programme. Available through the Hinckley-based firm’s national dealer network, Approved Triumph Pre-Owned Motorcycles gives riders increased confidence when buying a used bike.
As part of the programme, each motorcycle is put through a multi-point inspection by a qualified Triumph technician to ensure peace of mind. Alongside a full engine diagnosis, exhaust system examination and electrical inspection, technicians undertake a comprehensive frame, suspension, steering, final drive, wheel and tyre check.
Adhering to Triumph’s meticulous quality standards, brake systems – including ABS, fluid levels, hose integrity, disc tolerance and pad wear – are also scrutinised, while fairings, seat panels, fuel tank and bodywork are checked for correct fit and finish.
Finally, each model is subject to a full road test by a qualified Triumph technician. This includes hot and cold starting, brake function test, gear change operation, stability test and a comprehensive engine performance check. Only when the technician is happy that the motorcycle performs exactly as it should, is it returned to the showroom for a valet, ready for sale to its new rider.
All motorcycles available through the programme will be Triumph models under five years of age from first registration and will have completed no more than 25,000 miles. Any service required within 1,000 miles or 3 months will be completed, along with a multi-point inspection and all rectification work carried out as required. All Approved pre-owned motorcycles will also have a full service history recorded on Warranty-On-Line.
Paul Lilly, general manager of Triumph UK and Ireland, commented: “After undertaking considerable market research, we found that the majority of riders looking to purchase a used model were often put off by the perceived risk of hidden mechanical issues.
“With a comprehensive multi-point inspection, Approved Triumph Pre-Owned Motorcycles ensures that each bike has undergone a thorough performance, quality and safety check by a qualified technician. We’re confident that each model approved by the scheme will perform like a factory fresh bike for its new owner for complete peace of mind.”
Approved Triumph Pre-Owned Motorcycles is available through participating Triumph dealerships and online. For more information, visit www.triumphapproved.co.uk

Triumph ’s stunning new Bonneville Bobber made its UK public debut this weekend at the Regent Street Motor Show.
Launched with immense fanfare at a glittering celebrity event in Canada Water last month, the Bobber went on display at the motoring show on Saturday (November 5th) on Triumph’s stand in the heart of London’s West End, in front of hundreds of thousands of visitors.
Designed with hand-crafted custom style, elegant engineering and peerless authenticity, the Bonneville Bobber fitted right in amongst the collection of iconic motor vehicles past and present.
Visitors to the show were among the first in the world to get up close and personal with the premium heritage Bobber.
Triumph Motorcycles’ UK & Ireland marketing manager, Martin Hough, said: “Feedback on the new Bonneville Bobber has been exceptional and there were few places more suitable for the bike to make its UK public debut. The Regent Street Motor Show is exciting, stylish and full of heritage, just like our Bobber.”
The Bobber goes on sale in the UK early next year, with prices still to be announced
Joining the new Street Cup in the Street Twin line up for 2017 – the all new Street Scrambler builds on the Street Twin’s position as the fun and accessible contemporary Bonneville and brings a significant update in capability and style to the iconic Triumph Scrambler.
Purposeful Scrambler Style
The all-new Street Scrambler has been developed to deliver more purposeful and beautiful Scrambler style with unique features and detailing.
Sharing the same contemporary custom styling principles as the Street Twin, the new Street Scrambler has the iconic Bonneville silhouette combined with clean lines, minimal bodywork and modern finishes such as the elegant fuel tank with locking cap, black sculpted engine covers with the Triumph makers mark and engine badge, single throttle body with aluminium finisher and distinctive fined head and header clamps.
In-keeping with the name and heritage, the Street Scrambler is packed with distinctive and beautiful scrambler finishes including;
– Interchangeable pillion seat and aluminium rear rack as standard
– Removable pillion pegs and hangers
– Steel high grip ‘Bear Trap’ adventure style front foot pegs
– All terrain style bash plate
– Ribbed Alcantara-style twin seat with contrast stitching and Triumph embossed logo
– Aluminium headlight bracket and black headlight bezel
– Distinctive competition inspired number-board side panel
– New front mudguard mounts to suit the larger wheel
The premium touch of the entire Bonneville range is present in the details, including unique gun-metal finish engine badges, real brushed aluminium tank logo decals, black headlight bezel and machined metal instrument dial face detailing.
The all-new Street Scrambler is available in three exciting paint schemes;
– Jet Black
– Matt Khaki Green
– Korosi Red and Frozen Silver with jet black hand painted coach lining and unique tank decals
More performance
There’s been a major step forward from the previous generation Scrambler in regards to engine, exhaust and rider focused technology. All combining to give more performance and a better riding experience from the new Street Scrambler.
Fitted with the critically acclaimed 900cc Bonneville high torque engine, the Street Scrambler delivers much more torque and power low down and in the mid-range, perfect for around town and light off-roading. A key update to the original Bonneville engine platform, the 900cc engine features a charismatic 270° firing interval for smooth, linear power delivery from the slick five-speed gearbox.
Enhanced throttle response from Triumph’s ride-by-wire fuel injection and cutting-edge liquid cooling system have been carefully integrated into the unique style of the Street Scrambler. This reduces fuel emissions and significantly improves fuel efficiency whilst providing smooth and precise drive for a higher level of control and rideability. This, combined with a new extended service interval of 10,000 miles (16,000km) dramatically reduces the overall cost of ownership.
The all new, more compact, high level twin Scrambler exhaust in beautiful stainless steel delivers a unique scrambler soundtrack, authentic scrambler style and features an intricate header run that cleverly integrates the cat box and is finished off with brushed stainless steel silencers with stylish contrasting black heat shields.
Enhanced capability
The stunning authentic Scrambler look comes complete with contemporary capability for maximum precision, control and safety and a wealth of advanced rider focused technology including:
Ride-by-wire – Enhanced rideability, safety and control, from a single throttle body.
Switchable ABS – A unique feature on the Street Scrambler that reinforces its capability is switchable ABS, accessed via the instrument menu.
This is the latest generation anti-lock braking system – introducing a new level of safety and control yet remaining unobtrusive and with minimal visual impact.
Switchable traction control – Switchable traction control, accessed via the instrument menu,
helps to maximise rider safety and control.
Torque assist clutch – Designed to reduce clutch lever effort for the rider, bringing a lighter touch and feel to the clutch and making it easier to ride, and for longer
Liquid cooling – For cleaner and more fuel efficient riding (up to 36% better fuel economy).
LED rear light – Incorporated into the classic design, it creates a distinctive light pattern with enhanced power efficiency.
Engine immobiliser – Thatcham approved immobiliser with a transponder incorporated into new key.
USB charging socket – Mounted underneath the seat for convenient charging of essential devices.
Stylish twin clocks – Feature packed clock cleverly incorporating a digital menu system for fingertip control while riding.

Gear position indicator
Odometer
Two trip settings

With a dedicated new Scrambler chassis and suspension the Street Scrambler has had a major upgrade to its capability and has been given more dynamic Scrambler poise.
Just like the Street Twin the new Street Scrambler chassis set-up is tuned to deliver a neutral and predictable ride. This, combined with the same confidence inspiring evolution to “stand-over” ergonomics for manoeuvrability and seat height considerably lower than the previous model, makes it a really accessible and fun bike for every type of rider.
Contributing to the commanding riding position and signature silhouette are the new model specific front forks and rear suspension units which raise the back end for addition ride height, wider tapered aluminium handlebars and classic larger sized wire spoked wheels. The new Street Scrambler comes with a large 19’’ wheel on the front and 17’’ wheel on the rear both of which have stylish steel blacked out hubs and rims.
A further increase in specification comes from the new high value 2-piston sliding axial Nissin caliper with machined branding.
EUROPE ONLY
Accessible for everyone
To make the Street Scrambler even more accessible, an A2 licence kit will be available for models from launch.
The A2 kit can be easily fitted and just as easily removed by a Triumph dealer.
Local market legislative requirements will apply.
Add even more Scrambler style and capability
Just like the Street Twin, the new Street Scrambler has been designed with personalisation at its heart and has more than 150 accessories to deliver more rugged off road focus, more style and more everyday usability.
The off-road accessories include, adjustable rear piggy back FOX shocks with threaded preload adjustment and 24 position compression damping, black glass-filled nylon headlight grill with a pressed steel matt black finish bezel, and a forged and machined aluminium handlebar brace in a black anodised finish (fitted with a stylish black or brown vinyl bar pad embroidered with the Triumph logo).
For even more style the accessories range include slip on Vance and Hines single exit silencers, a traditional scrambler twin bench seat and 70mm diameter bar end peep mirrors in anodised black or clear aluminium with a laser etched Triumph logo.
For everyday usability there are internally wired heated grips available along with a steel fabricated centre stand kit, an auxiliary power socket and cockpit mounting kit and highly durable engine bars.
* Please note that availability of the Vance & Hines silencers are governed by local market legislation
Avon Tyres announced today that British motorcycle manufacturer Triumph has selected the Avon Cobra tyre as the original equipment fitment for the newly launched Triumph Bonneville Bobber.
Avon’s 100/90-19 57V Cobra, which exists within the current motorcycle tyre range, has been further developed to improve performance and is the front tyre of choice on Triumph’s latest bike.
For the rear, Avon has developed a Cobra tyre with modified and dual construction especially for Triumph’s Bonneville Bobber, to give ultimate performance and stability. The Cobra 150/80 R16 71V is a new size and has been added to Avon’s extensive range, available immediately.
This is the second Triumph motorcycle that Avon has provided an OE fitment for, the Bonneville Bobber follows the Thunderbird LT which is fitted with an Avon radial whitewall version of the acclaimed Cobra tyre. Avon was the first top tier tyre company to produce such a radial white wall.
Ashley Vowles, Avon’s motorcycle tyre design engineer, said, “Avon has developed a fantastic relationship with Triumph, and we are delighted to announce this latest OE deal with such a like-minded British manufacturer.”
Triumph’s beautiful new Bonneville Bobber was unveiled last night at an exclusive, star-studded event in London.
Launched at The Printworks venue in Canada Water, hundreds of journalists, special guests, and celebrities from around the world, including Rupert Grint, Jess Glynne and Spencer Matthews, were present to witness the unveiling of Triumph’s new premium heritage model.
Team Triumph, a host of racing legends including seven-times World Champion Carl Fogarty MBE and three-times world champion Freddie Spencer, lined up against an international team of motorcycle journalists in a head-to-head indoor Bobber drag race.
With a live headline set by NME award-winners The Vaccines and support from DJ Harriet Rose, the warehouse venue was filled from start to finish with an eclectic mix of Indie rock and the sound of pure Bonneville hot rods racing.
Paul Stroud, Chief Commercial Officer at Triumph Motorcycles, said: “Triumph’s new Bonneville Bobber is an incredible new motorcycle with breath-taking poise, presence, and peerless authenticity, so it was only right that we gave it an equally incredible launch before the bike makes its European debut at EICMA show in Milan on November 8th, 2016.”
The UK’s leading large-capacity motorcycle manufacturer, Triumph, has unveiled three limited edition models of its Street Triple roadster to celebrate a decade since the bike’s launch. These factory specials have been created in association with custom paint shop 8BALL, which will provide a unique livery on the Street Triple R DARK and the Street Triple Gold and Street Triple Grey.
Featuring a 675cc engine, the Street Triple delivers 106 PS with 68Nm of torque for rapid acceleration. The DARK adopts the full specification of the factory’s well-established Street Triple R. The bike features a dark and moody paint scheme synonymous with previous factory DARK editions, with special effect grind incorporating the Union Flag to both sides of the fuel tank. The top of the tank identifies the series number within the 50 unit production run. This model also features a factory belly pan, fly screen and seat cowl colour matched to the paint scheme, and half Alcantara seat with hand stitching in red.
Both Street Triple Gold and Grey editions feature hand painted wheels colour matched to the machine livery, proudly housing the 10 year anniversary logo. Like the DARK both these versions include half Alcantara seats with colour matched hand stitching.
Triumph UK sales manager, Bruno Tagliaferri, commented: “Special edition models are always well-received by our dealers and customers. The DARK concept adopted by the factory on three previous editions has generated a cult following. Meanwhile the two 10-year anniversary models are a huge tribute to the success of this model in the UK. For each of the models, we have chosen unique colours to help the bike stand out and make them truly individual. Additionally, all of the bikes will come with a signed Triumph factory Certificate of Authenticity – so be quick, they won’t be around for long!”
Only 50 bikes of each model will be produced, which will be exclusively available via the Triumph’s UK dealer network. The Street Triple R Dark is available from 1 October, for a retail price of £8,599, and the Street Triple Grey and Street Triple Gold become available from mid-October at a retail price of £7,999.
Later this month (25 September), dapper gentlefolk from across the Midlands will join together at the heart of British motorcycling, as the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride comes to Coventry. For the first time ever, Triumph will throw open its doors to host the charity rideout, which will leave from the iconic British manufacturer’s headquarters in Hinckley.
A global phenomenon founded by a group of Australian friends in 2012, the DGR aims to raise money for two hugely worthwhile causes – prostate cancer research and suicide prevention. It’s all about scramblers, café racers, classic-styled bikes and bobbers, as well as the charming chaps and chapesses that own them.
Taking place in over 400 cities around the world, rules for joining the rideout are simple – dress dapper, sport your best facial furniture, ride a motorcycle of appropriate character and enjoy a fantastic ride to support a highly worthwhile cause!
This year’s Coventry rideout will congregate at Triumph’s Dodwells Road site in Hinckley, before touring the town and heading out across country to the centre of Coventry. The Tamworth ride will also start from Triumph’s headquarters, before breaking from the group and enjoying a different route.
Martin Hough, marketing manager of Triumph UK & Ireland, commented: “As one of motorcycling’s most renowned global charity events, welcoming The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride to our headquarters in Hinckley seemed only fitting!
“The event unites riders from around the world to celebrate everything we love about taking to two wheels, while raising awareness and money for a truly worthwhile cause.
“Welcoming riders to Hinckley is a great way to bring the local community together, as well as providing Triumph fans with exclusive access to the Triumph site.”
Mark Hawwa, founder of the DGR, commented: “When I started the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride, I wanted to change the perception of men on motorcycles and show our sophistication and style. We are an inclusive and friendly community. Having fun and a smile is what it’s all about!
“Since the first rideout in 2013, the event has grown exponentially, with more than 37,000 participants taking part globally last year. As well as continuing to raise money for prostate cancer research, we are also focusing our health goals on suicide prevention for 2016, following the tragic loss of one of our ride hosts to depression.”
Taking place in more than 400 cities worldwide, the DGR is free to all with a donation encouraged for those participating.
Registration for this year’s Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride is open now. For further information or to book your place, please visit www.triumph.co.uk or www.gentlemansride.com
Following a successful practice session at the Bonneville Salt Flats, achieving a speed of 274.2 mph to become the world’s fastest ever Triumph, Triumph Motorcycles has confirmed the attempt to set a new outright motorcycle Land Speed World Record will take place mid-September, 2016, weather permitting.
Piloted by TT star Guy Martin the Triumph Infor Rocket Streamliner will return to the famous Bonneville salt flats and attempt to beat the current 376.8mph record speed on an 11 mile-long course. Despite having a good course surface for testing the team felt that the salt wasn’t yet fully capable of supporting a top-speed streamliner run. In consultation with FIM course manager Mike Cook the team are targeting the September dates as the best possible opportunity for the optimal course conditions required for the record attempt.
The practice week, which ended with the 274.2mph run on Tuesday 9th August, demonstrated that both the Triumph Infor Rocket Streamliner and rider Guy Martin are ready for the task ahead. Martin’s first week in the streamliner saw him master the controls of the 1,000bhp streamliner very quickly – achieving all of the goals set by Crew Chief and Triumph Infor Rocket Streamliner designer Matt Markstaller and his team.
When asked about returning in September Markstaller commented: “We achieved a great deal during our test week at Bonneville and feel we are in a great position to move ahead with our record attempt. Guy settled into the streamliner very quickly and impressed us with the speed in which he mastered both the motorcycle and riding on the salt.
“While conditions were some of the best I have seen over the last few years, we feel there is still some room for improvement. When chasing a record such as this on two wheels the conditions have to be the very best they can be, to give us the greatest chance of achieving the speeds we require to set a new record. We feel that waiting a few further weeks will provide us with even better conditions and put us in the ideal position to make our record attempt.”
