Triumph unveiled a custom Street Twin motorcycle that has been jointly developed with custom bike builders, Down and Out Cafe Racers. The bike was showcased at The Bike Shed MCC custom bike exhibition in Paris.

The custom motorcycle, built on the Street Twin’s classic looks, follows a minimalist design theme with micro switch switchgear, micro turn indicators and a single-pod instrument cluster housing the speedometer set on a custom mounting. The bike also features multiple custom design elements such as brushed alloy guards, large-spoked wheels with a 150 section front and 180 section rear tyre, and custom front forks to house the large front wheel and tyre. The bike also comes with a hand-made saddle and a custom seat base.

“The Street Twin provides an ideal platform for customisation; staying true to the classic Bonneville features, the custom Street Twin emerges as a perfect amalgam of classic aesthetics and contemporary looks,” said Vimal Sumbly, managing director, Triumph Motorcycles India.

The custom Street Twin is finished in a shade of candy orange with black livery and many blackened-out components.
