parallel twin. What a pity the Bonneville doesn't have something as flexible or torquey as this. Fantastic brakes, did everything asked of them rain or shine. Good level of comfort, 925 km in one day without too many problems. and this on just A and B roads

wants the classic bike look, feel and sound without having to be a life-long member of the RAC.Triumph’s Thruxton is nostalgia in a bottle...Retro is something that, as you would expect, Triumph does extremely well. Its range of Bonneville based bikes
