Triumph Thruxton 1200R 2016

A masterpiece in combining classic design and new technology. The new Thruxton R is a retro naked bike with serious sporting ambitions that need not fear a trip to the racetrack. The engine is a blast and the brakes and chassis are of the highest standard. The ABS and TC riding aids are on board as standard and can be switched off if required. With 2 Inspiration kits, a Race kit and over 160 accessories, the Thruxton is infinitely customisable. Perhaps the best attempt yet to combine history with the future.

Compared to the sporty single-cylinder competition from KTM or Husqvarna, which you first have to make suitable for touring with a windshield, larger tank, etc., the Twin offers a smoother ride and thus better long-distance capability, and compared to most two-cylinder competitors, with the exception of KTM's 890 Adventure R, it offers more off-road capability. In any case, the Tenere 700 has become a real enrichment for the touring enduro segment, so it was worth the wait.
