Triumph Bonneville Bobber

The Triumph Bonneville Bobber has been updated for 2021, to meet the latest Euro 5 regulations (as well as BS6 norms for India). The 2021 Triumph Bonneville Bobber is priced at Rs. 12.25 lakh (Ex-showroom) and feature several updates, including mechanical changes, as well as cosmetic updates to give the BS6 model fresh appeal. The new Bonneville Bobber features a new blacked-out look, like that of the previous generation Bobber Black, and other cosmetic updates to justify the “new generation” model tag.

The 1,200 cc Bonneville parallel-twin engine is retained with the output remaining more or less the same, but now gets a fuller and smoother torque curve. According to Triumph, the engine’s inertia has been reduced, and it delivers a notable lift at 5,500 rpm, while peak torque remains the same as the older generation model, with 106 Nm at 4,000 rpm, while maximum power is 77 bhp at 6,100 rpm, just a minor 1 bhp bump over the outgoing model.

The blacked-out styling of the new Bonneville Bobber is achieved with new black engine covers, cam cover and sprocket cover, giving the Bobber a new meaner, moodier edge. The 2021 Bobber comes with beautiful details - minimal steel fenders with a central ridge and return edge, wide flat bars with broad adjustable levers, sculpted top yoke, and rubber gaiters on the 47 mm front forks. Braking duties are handled by Brembo two-piston calipers and twin discs, for better and controlled stopping power, while on the rear is a single disc set up. The dual-channel ABS is standard, as is the switchable traction control system.

Riding distance is also enhanced by the new, larger, 12 litre fuel tank which is said to provide up to 33% more range. Triumph's sophisticated ride-by-wire system offers two enhanced riding modes - 'Road' and 'Rain'. These adjust both the throttle response and traction control settings. The 2021 Bonneville Bobber features a 16-inch fat front wheel and new chunkier 47 mm front forks, giving a muscular and imposing front-end presence.

Both wheels have classic wire-spoked design, with black rims, and are shod with Avon Cobra tyres which have been specifically designed for the Bobber, with a lightweight construction. The black painted bar-end mirrors, classic rear 'drum brake' inspired hub, side-mounted ignition barrel, LED bullet indicators and new, signature full LED headlight, with a LED daytime running light.

The 2021 Triumph Bonneville Bobber is available with a range of 77 genuine Triumph accessories, including an alternative high bar set-up, luggage and choice of seating options, with adjustable seating and footpeg position. The new Bonneville Bobber is available in a choice of three distinctive colour options, with a new Matt Storm grey and Matt Ironstone scheme, a new Cordovan Red scheme, and a Classic Black option.
