Modern Classic Motorcycle Rental

 

 

BIKESECTION

A completely new Triumph Bonneville 800 debuted in 2000 (2001 in the USA) by Bloor's Triumph Motorcycles Ltd.  Originally built exclusively in Hinckley, England, some models are now produced at the company's Thailand manufacturing facility (which also makes components and accessories for various Triumph bikes). The new "Bonnie" strongly resembles the earlier models in style and basic configuration, but with entirely modern engineering. At the debut the new version was given a 790 cc parallel-twin engine, with the up-spec T100 receiving a 865 cc engine in 2006. From 2007 on, all Bonnevilles received the 865 cc engine. Through 2007, all engines had carburetors; electronic fuel injection was then introduced to the 2008 models in Britain and to United States models in the 2009 model year, in both cases to comply with increasingly stringent emissions requirements.
