2008 Triumph Bonneville T100

A blast from the past that rocks today.

Adding subtle touches to the uncluttered Bonneville form, the T100 wears a little extra to mark its connection with the classic ‘deluxe’ speedster of the sixties. The tank with hand painted coach lines and chromed engine covers are just a couple of features that add to the T100’s overall elegant presence. It gracefully tackles traffic and finds jaunts to the countryside irresistible, while remaining the very epitome of sophistication and style.

The Modern Classics Range - Bikes that reflect the original freedom and fun of biking. Beautifully engineered and meticulously detailed - they’re the real thing. Powered by authentic air-cooled parallel twins, their performance, handling, brakes and fuel injection are bang up to date. And the look? - that’s genuinely classic.

FEATURES:

Engine
The T100’s full-blooded and responsive 865cc parallel twin-cylinder engine delivers throaty acceleration, amplified by the mellow backbeat from its twin peashooter exhaust pipes. Maximum power of 67bhp arrives at 7500rpm, with peak torque of 51ft.lbf delivered at 5800rpm.

Fueling
Twin carburetors with throttle position sensor and electric carburetor heaters

Exhaust System
A pair of chromed stainless peashooter-style pipes handle the exhaust gases and enhance the traditional appearance of the bike.

Fuel Tank
The T100 features a classically styled dual colored tank, with hand painted coach lines, rubber knee pads and ‘60’s inspired chromed tank badges.

Brakes
The braking set-up of single front 310mm disc and 255mm rear, both worked on by powerful twin-piston calipers offers sensitivity, control and ample stopping power.

Chassis
The chassis – a tubular steel frame, 41mm telescopic forks and chromed twin rear shocks – offers secure road-holding, effortless steering and easy-going manners, just as you would expect of a bike derived from Bonneville hereditary. It’s topped by a generous seat, with plenty of room for two and an elegantly embossed Triumph logo.
