The Triumph Speedmaster cruiser motorcycle was designed and built in Hinckley, Leicestershire, UK, and based on the Bonneville America. Launched in 2002 with a 790cc twin-cylinder engine, the displacement was increased to 865cc in 2005, upgraded to fuel injection in 2008, and in 2018 the displacement was increased to 1, 200cc The main differences from the Bonneville America included a black finish to the engine, shortened gearing, a flat handlebar on risers, one piece saddle and cast alloy wheels with twin front discs, in place of the single disc of the America. The 'Speedmaster' name was last used in 1965 for the Bonneville T120R by American importers but not by the Triumph factory.
This Triumph Speedmaster has been looked after by its current owner and is in very good condition for its age. With a credible c. 12, 500 miles from new displayed, there are many old MOT certificates and some paperwork on file. The vendor advises that ?the original parts taken off the Triumph will come with the machine?. A current V5C is available.
