Engine
A significant engine update increases peak power by 5 PS, bringing it to 105 PS with 112 Nm of peak torque in the mid-range, which is where the Bonneville twin engine excels, and better still, there is also a reduction in inertia thanks to a lightweight crankshaft and a rare earth alternator. Combined with high compression pistons, revised ports and a cam profile, the Speed Twin 1200 is even more responsive than before, spinning up faster and revving harder for longer.
Advanced modern technology allows the use of a ride-by-wire throttle, ensuring the perfect throttle response for enhanced rideability, safety and control. Similarly, the torque assist clutch gives a light lever action for superb feel and reduced fatigue in the stop/start scenario of a town commute.
Handling
Delivering the pinnacle in modern classic sports riding experience was a key part of the design team’s brief. The front suspension has been upgraded to higher-specification Marzocchi 43mm USD forks with cartridge damping and Twin RSUs (with adjustable preload), for an even more precise, agile and dynamic modern sportster ride.
The RS is equipped with upgraded equipment, with is fully adjustable forks and Ohlins Piggyback RSUs, Brembo Stylema front calipers and higher specification Metzeler Racetec RR K3 tyres. Lower bars and a focused footpeg position give the Speed Twin 1200 RS a more focused sports ride.
Lightweight cast aluminium wheels also grace the Speed Twin 1200, with high-specification Metzeler Racetec M9 RR tyres (RR K3 on the RS), delivering superb agility, handling and incredible levels of grip as standard.
STYLING
The latest generation of the Speed Twin 1200 has authentic character with contemporary style. A new sculpted tank, side panels, bench seat, headlight and bracket design give the Speed Twin 1200 the beautiful stripped-back modern custom style.
Premium brushed metal features include the elegant twin upswept stainless steel megaphone silencers, aluminium front and rear mudguards, side panel finishers and heel guards.
Every part is designed to be as durable as it is desirable, with anodising used on many metal components, including the swingarm, while features such as the headlamp bowl and bezel are expertly sprayed in the Triumph paint-shop for a long-lasting and lustrous finish.
MODERN CAPABILITY
Advanced rider-focused technology for rider safety and enjoyment is sensitively incorporated into the Speed Twin 1200’s clean and minimalist lines.
The two riding modes (Rain and Road) are available on the latest generation Speed Twin 1200 (a third sports mode on the RS) with a dedicated throttle map and traction control setting for each mode. Easily switchable via a handlebar-mounted button, should riding conditions or rider mood change, the ideal setting is just a touch away.
Optimised cornering ABS and traction control, new LCD/TFT instruments and LED headlights with daytime running lights (DRL) are sensitively integrated. The RS also comes with Triumph Shift Assist as standard, complimenting the sport ride. A handy USB-C charging point and a built-in immobiliser bring rider convenience.
ACCESSIBILITY
As exhilarating for the seasoned rider as it is confidence-inspiring for the recently enlightened, the Speed Twin 1200 is an incredibly well-balanced, manageable motorcycle.
With a slim waist and an accessible low seat height of 805 mm (810mm RS), together with tapered handlebars and a comfortable footpeg position, the Speed Twin 1200’s relaxed, upright riding position fits riders of all sizes, and has the perfect poise for every ride, from the urban commute to the weekend blast.
Triumph Speed Twin 1200: the performance icon, evolved.
