I am one of those who say that if a thing is good that you are going to improve it, but on many occasions I have to shut up and acknowledge a job well done. Even more if that work is the improvement of a Triumph thruxton, a motorcycle that is already beautiful. In addition, this transformation is not only aesthetic, because it also includes an extensive remodeling of the parallel twin that these motorcycles originally mounted.

Before going to the detailed list of the material that has been used, the pure and hard data say that the engine has gone from 52 hp to 88, 4 HP increasing the torque from 55.88 N-m to 88.80 N-m. While the dry weight has dropped from the 204 Kg declared by Triumph to the 193 Kg which the manufacturer says it weighs. Reaching the 211 Kg with the filled ones done. This allows this British beauty to do the quarter mile (about 400 meters) in 12.69 seconds reaching 111 miles per hour (178.63 km / h) at the end of that route.
