Triumph has lifted the lid on the new Speedmaster, a T120 Bonneville variant based upon the Bobber platform.
Triumph says with the inclusion of the Speedmaster, the range of choice for riders has never been better.
But is there such a thing as too much choice?
The new Speedmaster builds on the Triumph classic/custom heritage with the classic DNA from the Bonneville family and the Bobber’s unique attitude.
Triumph says it’s now more practical and versatile than ever, a bar which the Hinckley marque has plenty of room to raise within the Bobber platform.
So the new Speedmaster brings another dimension – it’s a Bonneville Bobber variant that’s more relaxed, seats two and has a few spec upgrades where it’s needed.

There’s a twin disc front end which should make a great improvement to the stopping power of the Speedmaster; cartridge forks should further improve the front end; the rear shock is adjustable for preload and the 12-litre fuel tank is larger.
Thankfully, nothing has been done with the engine – the T120’s ‘Bobber tune’ will also be a highlight of the new machine.

Fruit on the Speedmaster includes a LED headlight with daytime running light, ride-by-wire throttle, two riding modes (Road and Rain), ABS and switchable traction control, slip and assist clutch and single-button cruise control for improved ride-ability and long distance comfort.
Theres some extras available too, like a ‘Highway’ kit for further touring capability; a ‘Maverick’ kit for a stripped back, mean attitude – includes single seat and raked-out bars; as well as accessories for style, detailing, comfort, touring, and premium Vance & Hines exhausts (market specific).
