Motorcycle specifications Triumph 900 BONNEVILLE T 100 Black 2017 Velvet night

The Black version has become inseparable from the Triumph Bonneville. It lets you enjoy Miss Bonnie's cool, vintage ride with the dark, brooding, almost bad-boy edge that this color infuses.

of course, there's already a black color for the normal T100, but the Black takes the paintbrush a step further. It's applied to the exhausts, crankcases, headlight surround, rims, indicators and foot controls. In this obscure episode, only the Triumph logos, injection covers and cooling fin milling make any attempt at bright audacity.

the 900 Bonneville T100 Black is distinguished only by its paintwork. It is technically identical to the Bonnie classic. Its 900 cm3 engine comes from the Street Twin, with 55 hp, a good 8.2 mkg of torque, liquid cooling, ride-by-wire, fuel injection and traction control. Cruise control can be added as an option. No frills on the chassis side, which needs no more than its tubular steel double-cradle frame, 18" and 17" spoked wheels and one brake disc per wheel. ABS is present, as is a USB port, coded immobilizer, LED taillight, power-assisted clutch and a large stock of accessories for customizing. If, a few thousand kilometers later, the desire for more torque and a sixth gear becomes too strong, you can find all the Black spirit in the 1200 Bonneville; for almost 2000 euros more.

black is black! Or rather, with the Bonnie Black, there's a shade of black: it's available in Matt or Jet Black, allowing you to choose a patina or gloss finish. Just goes to show, seeing life in black doesn't have to be sad.
