Triumph has launched the new Bonneville T120 in India at a price of Rs. 8,70,000 (ex-showroom, New Delhi). The company has started accepting bookings for the bike at its 12 dealerships across the country.

The new Bonneville T120 was revealed in October 2015 and showcased at the 2016 Auto Expo earlier this year, along with other bikes in the Bonneville family. It measures 2,170 mm in length, 785 mm in width and 1,125 mm in height. It has a wheelbase of 1,445 mm, a seat height of 785 mm and a dry weight of 224 kg.

The Bonneville T120 has a tubular steel cradle frame with a telescopic fork suspension at the front and twin shock absorbers at the rear, both with 120 mm of travel. The bike comes in four colour schemes - Cranberry Red and Aluminium Silver (with hand painted coach lines), Jet Black and Pure White (with hand painted coach lines), Jet Black and Cinder Red.

The Bonneville T120 is powered by a 1,200cc, 8-valve, fuel-injected, liquid-cooled, parallel-twin engine that develops 79 BHP @ 6,550 rpm and 105 Nm of torque @ 3,100 rpm. The engine comes mated to a 6-speed gearbox.

Some of the features on the T120 include heated grips, a centre stand, chrome multi-piece badges, spoke wheels and a grab rail for the pillion. You get twin-skinned chrome exhaust headers and pea-shooter style silencers as well. The bike also comes with ABS, traction control, a slip-assist clutch, two ride modes and a USB charging socket.

Additionally, Triumph is selling a range of accessories for the Bonneville T120. The company has also created a 'Prestige inspiration kit' to use as the starting point for riders to design their own T120 custom, or to have fitted as a complete set.
