Thruxton POAPRODUCT INFORMATION
OVERVIEWThe Thruxton is born of the café racer culture that dominated motorcycling in the 1960s.Back then, British twins, usually Bonneville engines, were used to form the basis of home built bikes. Used to racefrom one café to another, they featured extensive modifications such as dropped bars, single seats and upsweptexhausts.To this day, we’ve kept many of these styling cues for the modern Thruxton. Named after the high speed Britishcircuit where Triumph enjoyed great success in production racing, it follows in the tyre tracks of the legendary1960s Thruxton T120R.And just like those café racers of the 60s, the modern Thruxton is Bonneville based but nowadays, our engineershave made sure it rides like a modern Triumph twin. So it’s dependable enough for everyday use, easy and fun toride yet still evokes the classic café racer look.
ENGINEPerformanceThe café racers were built to perform, not just to look good.Today, this 865cc parallel twin puts out a healthy 69PS with 69Nm of torque at its peak, with plenty available atlow revs so you get most use out of it.Fuelling is controlled by a sophisticated computer programmed management system for clean emissions and asmooth, predictable throttle response.
ConfigurationThe basic format is the same as the current Bonneville, with 360 degree firing intervals, double overhead cams,eight valves, twin balance shafts and fuel injection. So you know it's a thoroughly modern engine that, despite itsconvincing oldschool looks, easily meeting Triumph’s high standard of reliability, durability and efficiency.
SoundIt's the sound and feel of the engine that matters, from the thumping thrust of the generous low rev torque to theeager high revs and the purring, even exhaust note. So distinctive to the parallel twin.

CHASSISFrameAll of our extensive chassis experience and technology has gone into the Thruxton’s simple tubular steelconstruction. Providing easy, neutral steering and exceptional balance even at low speeds.
SuspensionWe fitted 41mm forks and chromed rear shocks and retuned them for a firmer ride and tighter control in highspeed corners. The shocks include adjustability for spring preload for carrying a passenger or to suit your ridingstyle.
BrakesWe fitted the front with a big 320mm single disc strong enough to match the sporting pedigree of the Thruxtonwith plenty of feedback to enhance your ride. Yet we've made it as unobtrusive as possible within the 1960sstyling.At the rear is another disc, so there’s no compromise in the Thruxton's thoroughly modern braking performance.
Wheels and TyresThe wheels are wirespoked with aluminium alloy rims, 18 inches at the front and 17 inches rear for the classic caféracer look. They're lightweight too, for increased suspension performance and handling agility.
HandlingWe kept the geometry similar to the Bonneville's but with a little less trail at 97mm so you get sharper steering andmore urgent handling when ridden hard. But the same neutral, obedient feel during less exuberant riding, makingthe Thruxton a rewarding as well as an easy bike to ride.
Riding PositionPure 1960s café racer but not at the expense of comfort, that's what the Thruxton is all about. So there's a sportyforward lean that makes you look the part. The footrests have been raised and set back to complement the barposition, so you are close to the bike and can really feel how the front end is performing.We’ve positioned the bar end mirrors to work best when you are tucked down and forward, providing a good viewof the road behind around elbows and body.But none of this is so extreme that it spoils the feeling of versatility. You can still tour or commute on the Thruxtonas well as take it for a sunny Sunday burn.
