2017 Triumph Thruxton 1200 Pure White

The legendary character of the Thruxton comes to life through the1200cc, high power, 8 valve, parallel twin engine.

The 'low inertia - high performance' six-speed engine features a lighter crank and airbox unique to the Thruxton and Thruxton R. With the pin-point accuracy and instant throttle response of Triumph’s next generation ride-by-wire fuel-injection, fed by authentic twin throttle bodies, the Thruxton spec engine delivers a massive peak torque figure of 112FT-lbs at a low 4950 rpm - an amazing 62% more than the previous generation. With a high power output of 97HP at 6,750rpm, 41% up on the previous model’s engine, the new 1200cc Thruxton delivers much more power lower down and across the whole rev range, with an incredible 68% more power at 4,500rpm.

With all of the brooding presence and poise of the original Triumph racers the all new Thruxton and Thruxton R take the modern classic sports bike to a new level. Combining beautifully sharp and imposing styling with a wealth of high quality details, including a slim sculpted petrol tank, single seat set-up and a unique flip-up ‘Monza’ cap, the Thruxton and Thruxton R set the new benchmark.

The contemporary safety standard, Triumph's anti-lock braking system brings the highest level of control to the Thruxton and Thruxton R.

The Thruxtons' electronic ride-by-wire system enhances throttle control, responsiveness, safety and feel.

Linked to the ride-by-wire system the three selectable Mode options 'road, rain and sport' provide the rider with greater control and safety and with the 'sport' mode an even more immediate response.

Taking advantage of the sophisticated ride-by-wire system the Thruxton and Thruxton R incorporates a switchable traction control system that optimises the delivery of its outstanding torque.

Bringing a light touch and feel to the clutch control of the Thruxton and Thruxton R, the torque assist clutch system makes it easy to ride, and ride longer.

The Thruxton and Thruxton R switchgear presents a simple fingertip control scroll button for easy access to the key features on the new digital clocks.
