The 'king' of the highway is about to launch

Triumph will add the latest Bobber-based Bonneville Speedmaster with high-performance upgrades.

British motorcycle maker Triumph has revealed it will add a new Bonneville Speedmaster version based on the Bobber but equipped with higher performance components, including brakes and suspension.

The Bonneville Speedmaster with Highway Kit upgrade features a tall fairing and additional rear seat backrest.

The Bonneville Speedmaster uses a high-performance version of the new Bonnie’s 1200cc ‘High-Torque’ engine, the same as the Bobber, producing 77bhp and 105.75Nm of torque. The new model also shares the Bobber’s hardtail, but with removable seatposts and side skirts, plus a front brake setup with Brembo calipers.

The Triumph Bonneville Speedmaster also gets a suspension upgrade, with 41mm triple trees and a 90mm travel fork up front and a 73mm adjustable rear monoshock. The new model also inherits the electronics from the Bobber, including ride modes and cruise control.

Maverick Kit accessory upgrade with only one seat for the rider, horizontal handlebars similar to Bobber.

The bike is equipped with LED headlights and daytime running lights. The fuel tank has been increased to 12 liters for longer range, and the handlebars are curved back for a comfortable riding position.

Triumph says the new model is aimed at those who like the T120 but want more range and cruising style, or a Bobber with classic British styling. Like other Bonnevilles, the company has also introduced Inspiration Kit accessory packs.

The Highway Kit adds a tall fairing, new triple clamps, and a rear lumbar support. The Maverick Kit, meanwhile, has flat handlebars and a seat similar to the Bobber. The new Speedmaster will be available in jet black, cranberry red, white, and matte black.
