The
name is the same, and so is the format - a torquey twin-cylinder engine, an
easy-handling chassis and lean, classical styling. In bringing back the
Bonneville, one of the best loved names in motorcycling, Triumph has recreated
the look, the feel and the spirit of our most famous parallel twin, while
bringing the concept right up to date.
Few motorcyclists will need reminding that for many years the Triumph Bonneville was one of the stars of the motorcycle industry. The original T120 Bonneville was launched in 1959 as a high-performance, dual-carburetor version of Triumph's existing 650cc twin and named after the record-breaking feats on the Bonneville Salt Flats by Johnny Allen*. The T120 was a huge hit for Triumph, especially in the USA and remained successful until production eventually ceased in 1983.
We are confident that the new Bonneville will appeal right across the motorcycling spectrum. Naturally we hope that it’s famous name, classic styling and twin-cylinder character will make it attractive to many of those who have ridden - and in many cases still ride – Triumph twins from the past. However the new Bonneville is also very much aimed at riders of all ages, both male and female, who are simply looking for an enjoyable, good looking, practical machine with lively performance, pleasant power characteristics and excellent handling.
