2016 Triumph Thruxton, CAFE RACER BUILT TO PREFORM!!<br /> <br /> 2016 Triumph Thruxton <p>The Thruxton is born of the café racer culture that dominated motorcycling in the 1960s</p><strong>Performance</strong><p>The café racers were built to perform, not just to look good.</p><p>Today, this 865cc parallel twin puts out a healthy 69PS with 69Nm of torque at its peak, with plenty available at low revs so you get most use out of it.</p><p>Fuelling is controlled by a sophisticated computer programmed management system for clean emissions and a smooth, predictable throttle response.</p><strong>Configuration</strong><p>The basic format is the same as the current Bonneville, with 360 degree firing intervals, double overhead cams, eight valves, twin balance shafts and fuel injection. So you know it's a thoroughly modern engine that, despite its convincing old-school looks, easily meeting Triumph’s high standard of reliability, durability and efficiency.</p><p><strong>Features may include:</strong></p><strong>STYLING</strong><ul><li>Sound</li></ul><p>It's the sound and feel of the engine that matters, from the thumping thrust of the generous low rev torque to the eager high revs and the purring, even exhaust note.

And there are double overhead camshafts despite what looks like a pushrod tube at the front of the engine, just like the café racers of the 60s used to have.</p><strong>Frame</strong><p>All of our extensive chassis experience and technology has gone into the Thruxton’s simple tubular steel construction. Providing easy, neutral steering and exceptional balance even at low speeds.</p><strong>Suspension</strong><p>We fitted 41mm forks and chromed rear shocks and retuned them for a firmer ride and tighter control in high speed corners. The shocks include adjustability for spring preload for carrying a passenger or to suit your riding style.</p><strong>Wheels, Tyres and Brakes</strong><p>We fitted the front with a big 320mm single disc strong enough to match the sporting pedigree of the Thruxton with plenty of feedback to enhance your ride.
