Higher performance, better handling, enhanced tech and even more premium style. The incredible Speed Twin 1200 sets a new benchmark.

A significant engine update sees an increase in both peak power, now up 3 HP to 98 HP, and also mid-range power. The torque this is also up in the mid-range, which is where the Bonneville twin engine excels, and better still, there is also a reduction in inertia thanks to a lightweight crankshaft and a rare earth alternator.

Delivering the pinnacle in modern classic sports riding experience was a key part of the design team’s brief. The front suspension was upgraded to higher-specification Marzocchi 43mm upside down forks with cartridge damping for an even more precise, agile and dynamic modern sportster ride.

The change to upside down forks also allowed the fitment of higher specification radially-mounted Brembo M50 calipers paired with 320mm discs for phenomenal braking performance.

Lightweight cast aluminum wheels also grace the Speed Twin, with high-specification Metzeler Racetec RR tires, delivering improved agility, better handling and incredible levels of grip as standard.

As exhilarating for the seasoned rider as it is confidence-inspiring for the recently enlightened, the Speed Twin is an incredibly well-balanced, manageable motorcycle.

Triumph Speed Twin: the performance icon, evolved.
