Bonneville Bobber

Triumph's Bonneville Bobber achieves a convincing hardtail aesthetic through an elegantly hidden rear shock, pairing the look with a torquey 1,200cc parallel-twin with 270-degree firing order. There is no provision for a passenger seat, and the 3.2-gallon fuel tank limits range — a solo urban cruiser built for style and character.
