Triumph
Motorcycles India has launched the all new Street Twin & the new Street
Scrambler in India at Rs 7,45,000 and Rs 8,55,000 respectively. The new 2019 Street Twin and the new Street
Scrambler now come with a whole new set of equipment, enhanced rider comfort
and features that make them stand apart from their predecessors. The motorcycles were unveiled by Shoeb Farooq,
General Manager, Triumph Motorcycles India Pvt Ltd.
Both,
the new Street Twin and the new Street Scrambler get a significant power
increase, up by 10PS to 65PS with 18% more power. The higher revving engine now
redlines 500 rpm higher with an 80Nm torque and both the motorcycles sport new
Brembo 4-piston brake callipers for enhanced braking performance. Ride-by-wire brings enhanced rideability,
safety and control from a single throttle body and is sensitively incorporated
with minimal visual impact. The liquid cooled engine delivers low emissions and
fuel efficient riding and the high service intervals of 16,000km also help
maintain the new Street twin and the new Street Scrambler’s low cost of
ownership.
Launched
in 2016 the new Street Twin is the most contemporary model in Triumph’s
Bonneville line-up and has become the single biggest selling modern classic. On
top of its higher specification equipment, the new Street Twin has improved
rider ergonomics with a more comfortable seat-to-foot riding position,
enhancing the overall riding experience. Furthermore, a 10mm increase to the
seat foam thickness increases both rider and pillion comfort, improving longer
distance rideability.
The
new Street Twin now comes with two riding modes – rain and road along with
switchable traction control with a torque assist clutch. Its imposing twin
upswept silencers, deliver that unmistakeable British Twin soundtrack and a
thrilling and responsive Street Twin ride. The new Street Twin offers 140 +
custom accessories and is available with 2 inspiration kits – Urban Ride &
Café Custom. It also has TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System) capability as
an add on accessory.
The
new Street Scrambler on the other hand is designed to deliver easy precise
handling and a balanced agile feel. With a dedicated new chassis and suspension
updates, the new Street Scrambler represents a significant upgrade to
capability and brings even more of the dynamic Scrambler poise, ride and style.
It delivers a commanding rider position with comfortable ergonomics and
accessible neutral handling. These come from its signature scrambler wide
handlebars, forward set foot pegs and a 19 inch spoked front wheel with dual
purpose Metzeler Tourance tyres fitted as standard. Ride-by-wire brings
enhanced rideability, safety and control, from a single throttle body. The
Street Scrambler comes with three riding modes – rain, road and off-road in

custom accessories in addition to a new ‘Urban Tracker’ inspiration kit.
