The 2018 Triumph Bonneville Speedmaster flaunts 5-inch multi-function full LED headlamp with DRL as standard. The LED indicators, LED number plate light and LED rear light further accentuate the overall appearance of the bike. It comes with a fuel tank capacity of 12 litres, which has been increased from 9.1 litres. In addition, it also gets a pillion seat and to accomodate this move, the company engineers had to use a completely redesigned subframe. Mechanically, it is powered by the same 1200cc parallel-twin engine, which powers the Bobber. It delivers a maximum power of 77bhp at 6100rpm and peak torque of 106Nm at 4000rpm. The engine is paired with a 6-speed transmission. The cruiser comes with two riding modes: Road and Rain.
