Red Thruxton is nice , did Royal Enfield design it for them ?
 
That has already been noted in another place

The unfaired Thruxton has the look of a new Norton about it don't you think? :augie
 
Nice but are they going down the Harley road and giving up on sportbikes? I suppose the easy money is with the beard and selvedge crowd for the moment. Dev costs on these Bonnies and Thruxtons would have been peanuts compared with producing a worthy Daytona.
 
Ooooo I'm liking that Thruxton.....is that an actual 2016 model?

I see it is...... Wonder if I'll fit on it...
 
That Thruxton is the first modern bike in a while that I really like.
 
I really like the 1200 Bonny and that Thruxton looks gorgeous (lthough wrong riding position for me)..... Deffo interested when they get over here.:clap:clap:clap:clap Well done Triumph:thumb
 
Link no longer works. Take it that's the new Euro 4 compliant engine? Plus a lot more like the Coventry twins.
 
The one with the wrapped pipes looks good. The bloke sat on it doesn't look too happy though!
 
Spent my riding life alternating between Triumph and BMW (except for a short period modernising with a Kawasaki Versys) The last three bikes have been BMWs after enjoying but finding so frustrating a Triumph T100, Sounds like most of these frustrating issues have been resolved with the T120. Was thinking New Africa twin but how can I resist the looks of the T120, I tour a fair bit on fairly rough roads but have never found I needed massive ground clearance or power despite the tarmac ending.
Been riding a long time but I don't think I have ever had so much choice in machinery which will do what I require, discount the fours and threes and there is still a massive choice of bikes, but nothing tugs at my wallet as much as that silver and Burgundy T120.
 
Too black for me, needs a nice polished alloy fuel tank as contrast. The red/silver combo and the blue/silver combo though are :drool :drool

Bikes that look like bikes instead of a mish-mash collection of cheap plastic mouldings thrown together.
