Braking is handled by twin discs at the front and a single disc brake at the rear. The bike comes equipped with ABS and a switchable traction control system.

Triumph Bonneville Bobber-based cruiser spotted testing

Triumph appears to be working on a new cruiser motorcycle based on the Bonneville Bobber. A test mule of the said bike has recently been spotted in Spain, near the company's test facility.

The regular Bonneville Bobber comes with a single seat setup. However, the spotted model clearly gets an additional pillion seat with a backrest as well. The Bobber's quintessential design cues like the rear swing cage and monoshock have been retained on the cruiser version, though the bike gets some significant tweaks in order to suit its cruising characteristics.

The spotted model gets a revised rear sub-frame that houses a new rear fender, pillion seat and luggage carrier. The rider foot pegs appear to have been moved forward to provide a laidback riding posture. The handlebars are set higher as compared to the flat-type units found on the regular model. The 19-inch front wheel of the Bobber has given way for a more practical 16-inch unit. Multiple chrome inserts have been added throughout the bike to complete the cruiser look.

Powering the Bobber Cruiser will likely be the same T-120 engine that is found on the regular model. This 1,200 cc parallel twin unit is mated to a 6-speed gearbox and develops 76 BHP and 106 Nm.

Triumph Bonneville Bobber launched at Rs. 9.09 lakh

Triumph Motorcycles has launched the Bonneville Bobber in India at a price of Rs. 9.09 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). The bike is based on a new chassis but borrows its powertrain from the Bonneville T120.

The bike adopts a minimalistic and stripped down design language that is hugely inspired from the garage-built custom motorcycles from America. Major design cues seen on the Bonneville Bobber include a circular headlight, a single seat setup, flat-type handlebars with bar-end mirrors, a short exhaust with a slash-cut design, an authentic battery box with stainless steel strap, rear mudguard loop, carb styled twin throttle bodies, broad adjustable levers, traditional rubber gaiters, classic rear ‘drum brake’ inspired hub, new side panel and a sprocket cover with removable inspection cap.

It is available with four colour options - Ironstone with matte finish, Competition Green & Frozen Silver, Morello Red and Jet Black. Triumph is also offering a total of 150 accessories with the factory custom bike to give prospective owners an option to personalise their bikes, as per requirement.

Powering the Bonneville Bobber is the same 1,200 cc parallel-twin unit that powers the T120, which is mated to a 6-speed gearbox. However, the engine has been retuned to churn out 76 BHP @ 6,100 rpm and 106 Nm of torque @ 4,000 rpm. This marks a power drop of 4 BHP as compared to the T120's output. Braking duties are handled by a 310mm disc at the front with 2-piston floating caliper and a 255mm disc at the rear with a single piston floating caliper. Suspension setup includes 41mm KYB front forks with 90mm travel, while the rear gets a KYB monoshock with linkage that offers 76.9mm of rear wheel travel.

Features on offer with the Bonneville Bobber include ride by wire, two riding modes - Road and Rain, switchable traction control, torque assist clutch, anti-lock braking system (ABS) and engine immobilizer.

Triumph Bonneville Bobber teased ahead of India Launch

View Forum Discussion

Triumph will soon be launching the Bonneville Bobber in India. The factory custom motorcycle is expected to be introduced in the country by the end of March or early April, 2017. The British motorcycle manufacturer hasn't released an official announcement on the same yet, though a video teaser has been released, pointing towards a nearing launch.

The Bonneville Bobber gets a stripped black design theme that makes it look different from other bikes in Triumph stable. It is based on a new chassis and is equipped with a new suspension setup, while the engine has been borrowed from the Bonneville T120. The bike features minimalistic bobber design cues - a circular headlight, beefy front suspension forks, flat-type handlebars, bar-end rearview mirrors, a single seat setup, an exposed rear monoshock and a shorter exhaust with a slash cut design.

While the engine is the same 1,200 cc parallel-twin unit that powers the T120, it has been retuned to develop 76 BHP @ 6,100 rpm and 106 Nm of torque @ 4,000 rpm. This output is around 4 BHP less than the stock T120, though Triumph claims to have fiddled with the Bobber's engine setup to develop more power and torque in lower rpms. Transmission duties are handled by a 6-speed gearbox.

The bike comes with advanced features like ride-by-wire, two driving modes - Road and Rain, standard Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and traction control. Customers can also opt for additional options like cruise control and heated handlebar grips.
