In recent years, Triumph has become the official engine supplier of Moto2, which not only makes Triumph, the classic British vintage gentleman brand, more famous, but also makes its bikes more competitive, like the 2021 TRIUMPH SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS triple 180PS launched recently. The good news is that yesterday (2/23) Triumph also announced the launch of a revised version of its BONNEVILLE model line.
Triumph’s most iconic bike is the Bonneville T120, which shows all the classic Bonneville charm with its stylish and retro appearance. The lighter 1200cc water-cooled parallel-twin engine delivers 80PS at 6550rpm and 105Nm/3500rpm of torque, and for the first time, the 2022 Triumph Bonneville T120 and T120 Black will also be equipped with a new electronically controlled traction system with two riding modes: road and rain, which not only provides better throttle response but also allows the rider to more easily control the bike’s The T120 and T120 Black will also be equipped with a new electronic traction system for the first time.
All the classic Bonneville features are retained in the exterior, including the damped knee pads on the fuel tank, the long elegant seat, the chrome trim and the perfectly balanced left and right dual exhaust pipes, replaced by a cleverly updated classic LCD meter and the Triumph fuel tank logo with three levers. If you don’t want the chrome look, then you can opt for the T120 Black, which comes with all the factory blacked-out parts, including the wheels, armrests, engine, mirrors, gauges and exhaust, and elegant brown seats.
The 2022 Triumph Bonneville T120 is available in deep black and two two-tone color schemes, Cordovan Red and Silver Ice, and Cobalt Blue and Silver Ice, with hand-painted gold stitching. Jet Black and Matte Graphite, as well as silver hand-painted drawstrings.

The main changes to the 2022 Triumph Street Twin focus on comfort and appearance, starting with the seat cushion, which has additional foam of about 1.27cm to provide better comfort, new side covers with a more modern shape and logo, and a new side sticker design for the fuel tank, as well as a brushed aluminum surface for the throttle and headlight bracket.
