When something works better not to change it. That is what happens with the Triumph bonneville, which has been selling for almost 50 years and even the 2009 version maintains its original DNA. The most notable changes to the bike that pays tribute to the speed records of the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, USA, are the seven-spoke light-alloy wheels, which give it an even more retro look.
Compared to the previous model, the new rims and shorter fenders, allow to reduce the weight by more than 8 kg, and all this adds to the greater ergonomics of the new model, whose seat has a height of only 740 mm. On the other hand, the Bonneville continues to maintain its characteristic 865 cm3 twin-cylinder engine, and 67 hp.
Regarding the versions available for 2009, there is a standard version (in black or white) and the Bonneville SEwith a host of new features like polished alloy engine covers and chrome tank trims, as well as a choice between two-tone blue or white. Regarding the model Bonneville T100It stays true to the style of the 60s but includes some updates.
