Triumph Bonneville Bobber (2017 onwards)

The Triumph Bonneville Bobber is considered on of the best motorcycles in the category. It is a stylish cruiser with the typical retro design that has became so popular in recent years. It comes with a small seat that is highly impractical, but it just looks so cool on the bike.

Triumph has equipped this motorcycle with the same parallel twin engine you can find in the Bonneville T120. It has lots of character and there is plenty of toque, especially in the low end.

The riding experience is super-smooth and the motorcycle is pretty easy to handle. Unfortunately, the seat is not very comfortable for longer distances. The fuel tank is lacking in size, but the bike offers very good fuel economy, which can offset this issue.
