When you are named after the legendary Thruxton racers of the 60’s that inspired so many of the Café racers of the time, there’s a lot to live up to.

Hence the authentic styling that looks fast even when standing still. Low rise bars, a sporting riding position, spoked wheels, megaphone style silencers and a race inspired stripe from tank to tail would be enough for some, but not the Triumph Thruxton.

The riding experience has had just as much attention lavished on it with an 18” front wheel with an aluminium rim for genuine looks and improved handling. A floating front disc and two piston caliper, complete with braided hoses tame the fuel injected 865cc parallel twin engine which is tuned for more performance.
