In 2019, Triumph announced a new limited edition line-up of ultra-premium custom motorcycles to represent the pinnacle in hand-crafted custom motorcycle design, performance, specification and finish.

TFC bikes are built for enhanced performance, with higher specification equipment, state-of-the-art technology and engineering innovations to make them the most beautiful, exclusive and desirable ever made.

The first Triumph Factory Custom ever launched, the Thruxton TFC is a celebration of British engineering capabilities that have infused Triumph’s much loved cafe racer modern classic with increased power, improved performance and category-leading specifications.

As well as more peak power and torque than any other Thruxton, this is an ultra-rare ultra-premium TFC model with design innovations and high-spec rider technology to deliver exceptional handling and an extraordinarily rich and raw British twin soundtrack.

Right from its original launch, Triumph’s incredible Rocket has retained its status as a genuine motorcycle legend.  Even so, 2019’s Rocket 3 TFC sets an even higher benchmark for power, torque, performance, capability and style to create a spectacular new machine with breathtaking levels of performance and capability. 

Limited to only 750 numbered bikes, the Rocket 3 TFC, with its world’s-largest 2500cc triple engine and world-beating torque, is a sophisticated British engineering masterpiece which is fully loaded with category-dominating technology that handles beautifully and boasts more presence than anything on the road.

Scheduled for a 2020 release, the third TFC is the totally unique, truly special and absolutely beautiful custom-designed Bonneville Bobber: a bike that benefits from an engine update with significantly higher peak power and torque figures, an exceptional soundtrack, and a more purposeful and distinctive presence.

As well as a premium custom finish that includes carbon fibre bodywork and a more stripped-back style with a cleaner silhouette, the Bobber TFC has a host of additional exclusive features and unique high-value detailing and is finished by a one-of-a-kind TFC ‘Carbon Black’ and ‘Matt Carbon Black’ premium paint scheme. 

Arguably the most famous name in motorcycling and one of the most desirable bikes you could buy in the 1960s, the first Bonneville rolled off the production line in 1958 under the direction of Triumph legend Edward Turner. A race winner straight out of the crate, the T120 Bonneville made its mark as the cafe racer of choice for teenage bikers and professional racers in almost all forms of motorcycle motorsport, from track racing to endurance racing, flat track, trials and scrambling. Famously named after the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, USA, where Triumph smashed the land speed record by going 214mph in 1956, the ‘120’ in the name was chosen to imply a top speed for the day of an unbelievable 120 miles an hour. 

Reflecting its illustrious bloodline today there is a whole family of Bonnevilles to choose from: the contemporary, stylish Street Twin and Street Scrambler, the cafe racer Thruxton R, custom Bonneville Bobber and Speedmaster, and the timeless classic Bonneville T120 and T100. Each has its own distinct personality and original character, as well as loyal fans the world over.

More recently, the Bonneville family has benefited from exciting updates and developments.  An enhanced Street Scrambler has brought new dimensions of performance, capability, comfort and style to one of Triumph’s most accessible and easy-handling modern classics, and the Thruxton cafe racing legend has been evolved with a higher specification RS model that delivers even more power, better handling and more contemporary style.  

In addition, two completely new bikes have joined Triumph’s modern classics range: the Speed Twin delivers next generation modern custom capability and a whole new standard in dynamic riding experience, while the Scrambler 1200 is a category-defining dual-purpose motorcycle that delivers everything you need to take your riding fun to the most exciting level on the road and off it.

The Triumph Tiger goes back 80 years; that’s even longer than the iconic Bonneville. It’s an adventure story richer and older than any other brand. Since the 1930s the Tiger has been synonymous with genuine dual-purpose off-road and on-road touring.

The Tigers, first produced in 1936, were single-cylinder workhorses. Although used for everything from racing to everyday transport, their association with the rough stuff came early on – all tested by Harold Perry, the motorcycle trials rider. The early Tiger was also the bike of choice for many in the International Six Days Trial in the early ’60s, winning in all three classes entered, first time out. As World War II hit, the Tiger was redesigned to become the rugged vehicle of choice for the military.

The high-performance sport motorcycle of the time (released in 1939), the Tiger 100 was an excellent all-rounder. Bulletproof construction, by 1939’s standards, and a pretty impressive performance from the 498cc engine made it great for hauling gear and eating up the miles.

It was also the motorcycle of choice for pioneering ‘Godfather of adventure’ Ted Simon’s around-the-world trip in 1973.

Triumph’s Tigers represent the pinnacle of adventure capability, technology and style. The road-focused Tiger XR line-up is all about mile-munching capability, comfort and fun. Whether it’s commuting or a coast-to-coast road trip, the Tiger Triple devours the miles with ease. Now sporting the latest state-of-the-art technology and powerful 800 and 1200cc engines, the new Tiger generation sets the benchmark all over again.

Following in the footsteps of the original off-road competition Tigers, the dual-purpose XC line-up is all about going off the beaten track. The top-of-the-range off-road-focused XCA is equipped with all the latest tools to make it a benchmark-setting adventure motorcycle. Fully adjustable suspension, advanced rider modes and sharp ride-by-wire throttle response with plenty of low-down power, the 800 and 1200 XCA’S are a serious force on rough terrain.

Launched in December 2019, an all-new Tiger has joined Triumph’s incredible adventure line-up.  The Tiger 900 represents a quantum leap in capability with two distinct ranges: the GT range is a road-focused motorcycle fully-equipped for long distance riding, while the Tiger 900 Rally range is built for maximum off-road adventure with all-day riding comfort.

Launched in 2007 the first Street Triple was a game changer, with its thrilling triple engine performance and sound taken from the equally game-changing Daytona 675. Light, fast, fun, agile and stylish, it blew the competition away and was an instant success. With the introduction of the first R model in 2009 and today’s category-leading and technology-loaded 765cc S, R and RS launched in 2017, the Street Triple continues to set the benchmark for addictive and intuitive performance street motorcycles.

Loaded with high-specification features, the Street Triple R sports fully adjustable Showa suspension, Brembo M4.32 radial monobloc brakes, full-colour TFT instruments and riding modes, and 118PS of 756cc triple power. The modern Street Triple RS delivers even more with a higher specification all round and an incredible 123PS from the same 765cc engine set-up that will power the Moto2 championship from 2019. Performance is at the Street Triple’s heart.

With a reputation for genuine class-leading capability, easy riding accessibility and its triple sound and character, the Street Triple is one of Triumph’s most-loved and highest-selling motorcycles. With three models to choose from, the S – the perfect all-rounder – the more focused ‘streetfighter’ R and top of the range RS – a road and track weapon – plus an even more accessible low ride height version of the R and restricted license versions of the S for Europe and Australia, there’s a Street Triple tailor-made for every ride and rider.

The latest updated Street Triple range is topped by a new RS model that now has even more aggressive attitude, enhanced technology, a new sporty style and a class-leading standard of finish.

Launched in 2019, the top spec RS is the lightest bike in class and major performance improvements from its 765cc triple engine now delivers a 9% increase in mid-range power and torque, making this Triumph’s ‘Ultimate Performance Street’.

Attitude. Given a single word to describe the Speed Triple, that would be it. A stripped-back naked roadster with sport bike performance and power, the Speed Triple was introduced in 1994, inspiring a new generation of riders and introducing the term ‘factory-streetfighter'. Sharing its underpinning with the Daytona 900, its aggressive stance, minimalist style and thrilling torque-heavy, signature triple engine secured its position as THE original hooligan.

Every generation more powerful and with better handling than the last, the Speed Triple has been constantly evolved to always deliver the perfect balance of power, handling, capability and aggressive style, securing its place as a modern British motorcycle icon. From the T509’s introduction of those distinctive twin headlights and single swingarm to three generations of major engine evolution, lifting the original 855cc in 1994 to 1050cc and delivering a staggering step up in power to today’s thrilling 150PS and 117Nm of torque.

The Speed Triple has appeared widely across film and TV and since its inception has become ingrained in popular culture. From Trinity in The Matrix to Tom Cruise in Mission: Impossible II and Ryan Reynolds in The Hitman’s Bodyguard, actors, producers and directors have chosen the Speed Triple for not only its looks but also its performance during high-octane stunt scenes.

The new for 2018 Speed Triple S and RS are without doubt the greatest ever, with the next generation triple engine delivering 10PS more power and a staggering 117Nm of torque. They have the highest-ever level of rider technology, with new optimised cornering ABS and traction control and full-colour TFT instruments, and the highest-ever level of specification, with fully adjustable suspension and Brembo brakes. Combine all this with a weight saving of 3kg on the new RS and all of the aggressive nose down attitude and style and you get the sharpest, best-handling Speed Triple ever.

The name Daytona goes way back to 1966. Speed, performance and racing have long been at the heart of Triumph’s motorcycles. Buddy Elmore won the iconic Daytona 200 race on a Tiger 100, starting from 46^th on the grid and averaging an impressive 96.6mph. The following year, the company released the Tiger Daytona to celebrate Buddy’s amazing victory. Twenty-three years later, Triumph reintroduced the name, reigniting the racing spirit.

Launched in 1997, the Daytona T595 was Triumph’s first ‘modern-era’ fully focused sports bike, designed to go head-to-head with the competition. With 128bhp and a top speed of 161mph it featured an innovation in fuel injection, an all-new performance triple engine and a narrow lightweight frame.

In 2006, Triumph broke the mould all over again with the triple powered Daytona 675, launched to international acclaim and 5-star reviews worldwide. Built to race, it established Triumph as a force in supersport racing, taking titles at the Isle of Man TT, the North West 200, the British and German Supersport championships and rewriting history with a grandstanding win at the Daytona 200 in 2014, where the Daytona legend began.

And in the last 20 years Triumphs have returned to racing and the top step to continue the Daytona legacy, winning at the Isle of Man TT with Bruce Anstey and Gary Johnson, winning at the British, German and French Supersport championships, winning the iconic the Daytona 200 all over again with Danny Eslick in 2014 and competing in the prestigious World Supersport championship – all on the Daytona. Now as official engine of the Moto2^TM championship from 2019, with its Daytona-derived 765cc triple, Triumph continues this peerless bloodline.
