Triumph Bonneville T100 110 Anniversary
The home of Hinckley celebrates its proud 110-year history with a special limited edition of its Bonneville T100: The Triumph Bonneville T100 Anniversary Edition.

Destined to become a full exceptional collection piece, this motorcycle is based on the T100 model no. 1 of 1902 it retains the livery by special coloring called Brook lands Green.

The 865 cc Parallel Twin engine, chrome chain guard and wire wheels reminiscent of the original specifications of the first movement of Hinckley.

The English house to celebrate its 110 years of life has chosen to manufacture only 1,000 copies of Bonnie T100, sold from June 2012.

To obtain this traditional style has been used a color scheme historical, which are added classic accessories, such as in place of the black painted.

Details of the Triumph Bonneville T100 Anniversary Edition
The livery of the model for the 110 Th anniversaries include a decal on the side plates and a numbered plate on the handlebar plate "dog-bone".

On the bike there is also an emblem dedicated to the anniversary inspired by the marks on the tank first applied by Triumph.

The emblem shows a crown, three points to represent the three historic towns of Coventry and Meriden and Hinckley Triumph classic triangle inside the crown.

The unique two-tone paint with a touch of chrome accessories increases the charm of this special edition, distinguishing it from a production model.
The name of the color, Brook lands Green, celebrated the first motorcycle race won by Triumph in 1908 on the famous Brook lands circuit, the first circuit in the world built specifically for racing.

Chrome accessories exclusively for this special edition complete this unique look: chain guard, passenger grab handle and cover distribution.

2011 Triumph Tiger 800XC

2011 Triumph Tiger 800XC Review. I am convinced that time travel is possible, as I simultaneously create and reminisce over experiences in real time. My mind is focused solely on this very moment, the Catalan countryside, the beautiful country of Spain, aboard a 2011 Triumph Tiger 800XC. Rather than settling for an overworked nag christened Rocinante, I have chosen to ride upon the latest incarnation from the busy folks in the English Midlands-the "all-new 2011 Triumph Tiger 800XC". Albeit a bit less chivalrous, I set my sights on the humble objective of imbibing the Catalan cuisine, culture, and language that dominate the landscape, all the while evaluating the all-terrain capabilities and gregarious nature of the new Tiger XC.

According to Arthurian lore, the Benedictine monks at the monastery of Santa Maria de Montserrat are the loyal keepers of the Holy Grail, an artifact said to be buried deep below the sanctuary of the Virgin de Montserrat-a fitting medieval corollary to my newfound role as Quixote’s protégé.

The sporty roar of the" 2011 Triumph Tiger 800XC" is undeniably fabricated with healthy doses of Triumph Speed Triple inspiration, and the on-road performance and seating position is nothing short of upright exhilaration. However, diving into corners with a 21-inch front wheel is quite a bit slower than one would expect from the 19-inch front rubber found on many other adventure motorcycles. The twin headlights feed the ocular senses first and are signature Triumph, while the obligatory beak-like front mudguard has become somewhat of an adventure bike aesthetic requirement. Of course, I have had the" Tiger XC" fitted with a host of off-road accoutrements in preparation for the journey ahead. The stability of the' Tiger XC' is apparent in long sweeping corners, where holding a constant lean angle is astonishingly effortless for a machine with a large diameter front wheel and a 34-inch seat height
Entering corners on the Nissin twin-piston binders is a predictable experience, and the dual 308mm front brake rotors offer a smooth and progressive feel. The engine characteristics are perfect for extended distance adventure riding-long pulling torque allows for easy overtaking in nearly any gear, and the counterbalanced triple produces near negligible vibration through the handlebars and footrests. I jot a mental note to remove the feel-compromising rubber inserts from the footpegs at my next planned stop-the site of the mythical Holy Grail.

Three turns of the rear preload adjuster raises the ride height of the rear to provide a little quicker turning and stiffens the action of the shock through the first third of its travel. At 473 pounds (claimed wet), the 2011 Triumph Tiger 800XC is a heavy off-roader, though right in the ballpark for a mid-size adventure bike. Weight distribution feels balanced fore and aft, providing a stable, planted feel through the rough undulating Jeep roads. The spoked 21-inch front wheel is keenly in its element as I crisscross through ruts and take aggressive lines with levels of confidence rarely experienced on larger-displacement adventure motorcycles. This motor sets the Tiger XC apart from its parallel twin Bavarian counterpart with a higher power-to-weight ratio.

Adjustable ignition mapping is not necessary; the throttle position sensor reads the speed at which the throttle is twisted and changes the ignition advance accordingly. The excitement and tractability of the 2011 Triumph Tiger 800XC’s power delivery is as appreciated in loose and sandy conditions off-road as it is on questionable pavement, and hits a high note of relative flickabilty compared to any 1200cc adventure machines. Brimming with confidence, I aim the Tiger at a rocky dry riverbed to simulate a “worst case adventure scenario.”

The standard version will be offered with 19-inch front wheel and non-tubed tires.
For" 2011 Triumph" will be powered by a stroked out version of the Triumph Daytona 675. The Tiger 800 offers outstanding accessibility and maneuverability with cast alloy wheels and, thanks to the adjustable seat that’s on both models, a seat height as low as 31.9 inches to make it an adventure bike for the masses. The taller Tiger 800XC, meanwhile, delivers true off-road capability thanks to its longer-travel suspension and 21” spoke front wheel. With its higher riding position, the Tiger 800XC provides a commanding view of the road ahead and absorbs even the worst road conditions.

held the global unveiling of its eagerly awaited "Tiger 800 and Tiger 800XC" adventure touring models at the internationally renowned EICMA show in Milan, Italy.

Triumph’s 2011 model range represents the largest new product offering in the company’s 109-year history.

The taller Tiger 800XC, meanwhile, delivers true off-road capability thanks to its longer-travel suspension and 21” spoke front wheel.

2011 Triumph Rocket III Roadster

The Triumph Rocket III Roadster features a sophisticated anti-lock braking system that makes 100 calculations each second to ensure the rider retains full control under extreme braking. The rear brake, developed especially by Brembo, is a single twin piston caliper and 316mm disc.

Combined with the mid-mounted controls and revised ergonomics, the Rocket III Roadster offers the sportiest ride of any motorcycle to proudly display the Rocket III badge.

Two menacing black finishes make the Roadster the meanest looking Rocket III yet. From the Roadster’s 2.3 litre heart to the 43mm forks up front, the blacked out components of the Rocket III Roadster ooze classic streetfighter aggression.

In sparkling Phantom Black or menacing Matt, the Rocket III Roadster oozes menace and quality in equal dozes.

Coming in two mean and moody black color options, metallic Phantom Black or an aggressive Matte Black alternative, the Rocket III Roadster is powered by an uprated version of Triumph’s iconic three-cylinder 2,297cc powerplant. Triumph’s sophisticated anti-lock braking system is fitted as standard to the Rocket III Roadster, the first time that an ABS system has been specified to the Rocket III platform.

The Triumph Rocket III Roadster is a big machine and, although the weight is carried low, at a claimed 807 pounds wet, it is also heavy. While the 43mm male-slider forks and twin Kayaba shocks offer no damping adjustability, the Roadster's overall handling is a revelation. Fortunately, the Roadster's low-slung weight and wide bars means the machine responds enthusiastically and predictably through corners. The big front 150mm footprint increased confidence and I found myself pushing the Roadster more than it was probably designed for.

The Roaster handled abuse on twisty canyon roads far better than I expected; this is an enjoyable motorcycle to ride hard. Claiming a 15-percent power increase over the Classic (now discontinued) and Touring Rocket III models, and despite a relatively modest 122 peak horsepower compared to the VMax, the Roadster's incredible 147 ft/lbs of rear wheel torque gives this "cruiser" its staggering level of thrust.

Considering Harley's Twin Cam 96 motor-itself a strong, torquey performer-churns out a healthy 85 ft/lbs of torque at the rear wheel, it rather puts the Triumph's astonishing motor in perspective. Even more remarkable still, the Rocket III Roadster cranks out some 130 ft/lbs of torque just off idle at a mere 1500 rpm

Triumph Bonneville

The Triumph Bonneville


The Triumph Bonneville refers to a group of high performance motorcycle models from the veteran British motorcycle manufacturer, Triumph. The first The Triumph Bonneville was a 650cc two cylinder engine motorcycle launched in 1959. The fuel system of the bike incorporates dual carburetors with a throttle position sensor and electric carburetor heaters, activated through an inductive type digital ignition.

Encouraged by the success of the Bonneville engine, Triumph has utilized this technology in a number of latter bike models.
I'll admit to a streak of excitement when the Triumph Bonneville SE beat out the Street Triple R and Thunderbird in the Moto Poll for our next long term test bike.



"Hmmm," I thought, "This should be fun."
The Bonneville The "Triumph Bonneville" SE starts at $8,599, and after choosing my color (I went with Pacific Blue/Fusion White over Jet Black), I added the Arrow 2-into-1 exhaust ($1,099), chrome grab rail ($219.99), and bar end mirror kit ($119.99.) Unfortunately, neither Triumph's elegant leather city bags ($349.99) nor the more functional fabric saddlebags ($249.99) were compatible with the Arrow pipes, since their upward sweep interferes with placement. Total price for my Bonnie? Down at the press fleet center in Placentia, California, I signed the loan agreement, snapped a couple of pictures, and pushed the bike out into daylight. I pushed the bike back and, sure enough, it was out of gas. "C'mon, guys!" Once back aboard the Bonnie and aimed north on the congested 5 freeway, it seemed that the bike's rich supply of torque was heightened by the Arrow pipes. Splitting lanes along the 5 freeway, the The Triumph Bonneville felt every part the confident and capable steed, offering a smooth, stable ride, even eliciting a "Nice bike!" comment from a cop who was redirecting traffic around a fender bender.
