Here are our “His and Hers” Bonnevilles. Cyndy recently bought her new Triumph Speed Twin, and we have just completed the work on it. She wanted to customize it by changing many of the components to black rather than silver. We spent a lot of time looking at the Speed Twin and coming up with ideas.
She bought some Triumph’s covers and black accessories but wanted more. We removed and sent out the handlebar brackets, foot pegs, headlight brackets, front and rear fenders and had them black powder coated.
I think it came out fantastic! She has designed a great looking custom, and she loves to ride it. We obviously have similar tastes in our bikes, and she has gone for the sportier of the two. The Speed Twin is a rocket and oh so much fun to ride. I love my Bonneville T120 Black, and I have had it for three years. It was so much fun customizing mine, and I can’t seem to find any other bike that I want more.
Whether you just put one new piece on your bike or many, you will find you have a new motorcycle and will be incredibly excited.
2020 Triumph Thruxton RS Review
The Triumph Thruxton RS goes harder than anything this cool has any right to.
Remember when classic bikes were slow and heavy? Remember when buying a cool-looking bike used to mean accepting a lazy engine and basic suspension?
The retro bike world has changed a lot since the first “modern” Triumph Bonnevilles arrived in 2006, and now looking good doesn’t have to mean going slow. When the Triumph Thruxton R was launched in 2016, it brought speed and handling to the modern Bonnie, bridging the performance gap between it and bikes like BMW’s R nineT. This new Thruxton RS model takes that performance a step further, addressing some of the feedback from the R and wrapping it up in a slick blacked-out package.
