Brutal beauty – a pure Bonneville hot rod.
Unparalleled heritage, stunning custom style.
The latest addition to the Bonneville family, Triumph introduces the all-new premium custom Bonneville Bobber. Born in a unparalleled bloodline of Triumph bobber customs that stretch all the way back to the 1940's it perfectly encapsulates the minimalist styling principles, muscular stance and purposeful engineering attitude of a genuine bobber.
Stripping the Bonneville T120 back to its purest essence it delivers all the hallmarks of a real bobber, with clean lines and low stance, single seat, wide flat bars, minimal bodywork and headlight, sculpted tank, wire spoked wheels with wide rear wheel and that all-important hard tail look.
The Bobber's stunning features include an authentic battery box with stainless steel strap, bar end mirrors, rear mudguard loop, carb styled twin throttle bodies, broad adjustable levers, traditional rubber gaiters, classic rear 'drum brake' inspired hub, new side panel and sprocket cover with removable inspection cap.
A genuine factory custom, the Bobber features a whole host of premium finishes including bronze 1200HT engine badges and the signature Triumph makers mark triangle, brushed engine covers, branded locking fuel cap and silver satin and graphite handlebar risers.
There are four premium colour options to choose from;
- Ironstone, with a matt finish
- Morello Red
- Stunning Competition Green and Frozen Silver, with a stylish British racing twist
- Jet Black
Elegant engineering innovation
The Bobber introduces a tailorable riding position, delivered by the beautifully crafted new floating aluminium seat, ergonomically optimised and sculpted for comfort with stitched deep foam pad, and minimal stylish clock – both adjustable to suit rider size and riding style.
The slotted seat design system allows the rider to position the seat 'up and forward' for dynamic riding in a roadster position and 'down and backwards' for cruising in a more traditional riding position. This is complimented by a simple quick-release function for the clocks that enables riders to adjust the position to complement their seating and riding style.
Combined with a low seat height of 690mm when in the low seat position, the Bonneville Bobber is truly accessible to all riders.
Delivering the Bobber's hallmark hard tail look is an innovative and distinctive 'cage' swinging arm with paddock stand bobbin mounts and hidden monoshock rear suspension.
Topping off the engineering innovation is the 'clean line' Bonneville technology packaging system, which includes the straight line hidden 'cat box' pipe run and the sensitive incorporation of rider focused technology such as the ECU, ABS modulator and immobiliser.
Category defining capability, control and comfort
Our ambition was to deliver a genuine bobber - without compromise to the ride, comfort or rider
control, to have it ride just like a Triumph should.
With an all new bespoke frame to suit the unique Bobber geometry and minimal rear end, new forks with bespoke springing and damping, a low seat height, great stand over and adjustable riding position the Bobber delivers a truly class defining riding dynamic.

Finally to enhance the authentic look the Bobber has classic wire-spoked wheels, with stylish black rims and inner tubes fitted with Avon Cobra tyres developed specifically for the Bobber.
With a signature 'wider rear wheel' Bobber set up it has a 19''x2.5'' on the front, fitted with an Avon Cobra AV71 for reduced mass for high-speed manoeuvrability, and 16''x3.5'' wider wheel fitted on the rear, with a category-first AV72 radial tyre with cobra tread pattern for class-leading stability.
Canvas for individual style
The Bonneville Bobber has been designed with customising in mind with over 150 accessories available for more style, detailing and comfort, and for even more performance.
For even an more distinctive character there are high 'ape hanger' bars, a statement rider seat and bar end peep mirrors.

To deliver even more performance to the Bobber, Triumph is introducing a new partnership with FOX with a dual branded adjustable rear suspension unit plus a range of new Bobber exhausts from Vance and Hines with beautifully machined aluminium end caps which are adjustable to change the profile.
