Triumph has released a limited-edition version of its 1200 Bonneville Bobber, named the Bobber TFC (Triumph Factory Custom). Limited to only 750 units worldwide, this will be a collector’s edition with top-drawer equipment.
- Limited to 750 units worldwide
- unique billet aluminium plate displaying bike’s number
- Features a bespoke black with Gold accents paint job
Updated Triumph Tiger 1200 launched at Rs 19.39 lakh
Aesthetically, the Triumph Bonneville Bobber TFC boasts a bespoke paint job with hand-painted gold accents on the fuel tank, gloss carbon fibre side panels, and mudguard stays. A unique billet aluminium plate on the handlebar proudly displays the bike’s limited production number.
Mechanically, the TFC retains the 1200cc parallel-twin engine from the standard model, delivering 76hp and 106Nm. It features a factory-installed road-legal Akrapovič exhaust with carbon fibre tips, enhancing the exhaust note and potentially improving performance.
Another significant upgrade is the move to Öhlins suspension. The TFC features 43mm upside-down forks at the front and a fully adjustable mono-shock at the rear. These provide adjustability for preload and rebound damping.
Braking gets a big upgrade with twin-radially mounted Brembo M50 monoblocs coupled with a Brembo MCS master cylinder. The TFC comes with an additional ‘Sport’ riding mode, alongside the existing ‘Road’ and 'Rain ‘Rain’modes found on the standard Bobber. The sport mode aims to offer a more responsive riding experience, though the engine's output remains unchanged across all modes.
The TFC is positioned as a more exclusive version of the Bobber, aimed at riders who are willing to pay more for top-drawer equipment. The standard Bonneville Bobber is available for Rs.12.05 lakh (ex-showroom, India), we expect the TFC to command a higher premium if it were to make it to India.
