Triumph Bonneville and Speed Triple SE announced

Triumph Speed Triple SE

Triumph Motorcycles has introduced two special edition models of its Bonneville and Speed Triple bikes. In the case of the Bonneville SE, a red frame and matt black/cranberry red colour scheme lead the way.

Other enhancements to the 865 cc machine include new front indicators and headlight mounts, black mirrors and a black pillion grab rail and ‘bash’ plate at the rear. The Bonneville SE also sports a unique seat design comprising new stitching and vinyl covering.

As for the Speed Triple SE, the 1050 cc three-cylinder beast comes dressed in a blue frame and swingarm, and can be specified with either matt graphite with twin matt blue decals or crystal white with twin gloss blue decals. Also on are blue wheel pinstripes and new black mirrors, silencer heat shields, handlebars and yokes.

The special edition also gets the lightweight treatment, with carbon fibre front mudguard side pods, tank cover panel and inner radiator panels. A colour-matched fly screen, belly pan and seat cowl all come as standard, and a new styled clutch, alternator and sprocket cover complete the distinctive makeover.

    • Sam Loo, Triumph is a British Bike manufacturer with history of nearly 130 years. if you are into bikes, you should know better that these bikes ruled the world of biking in the 50’s and 60’s.

      Amongst some popular british brand bikes are BSA (defunc), AJS (defunc), Norton (still in prod), Royal Enfield (now Indian made).

  • knowing how brand concious malaysians are, any AP king who wants to bring in this brand may need to think hard how to disassociate it with the famous female undergarment :-)

    joke aside, this brand would make a very good road presence. probably on par with moto guzzi, with their non conventional engine config/layout. saw triumph rocket once at petrol station. it was beautifully unique and once you hear the engine sound…for my case, it was 10 minutes of evil voice inside my head asking me to ditch my car and go have a speedy mid life crisis, haha.

    3cylinder has the torque of a twin cylinder and a smooth ride of a 4cylinder. wish I had the money to splash on an expensive bike.
