Triumph Motorcycles Malaysia has just announced the pricing on five of its latest 2017 models. These five models are bound for Malaysian showrooms and should be available very soon except for the new Street Triple 800 S that could take slightly longer than the initial five. But at an expected price of below RM50,000, the new Street Triple is one motorcycle worth waiting for, but for those who just can’t wait, the prices of the new Triumphs could be hard to resist. We break it down for you:

Street Triple R & Triple RS

The new range starts with the new 765cc Street Triple R LRH (Low Ride Height) which starts from RM58,900 while the Street Triple RS will be priced at RM66,900. The Triple R is now 11.3% more powerful than before and offers a peak power output of 115hp @ 12,000rpm. The Triple RS however is 16% more powerful and offers a peak power output of 120hp @ 11,700rpm.

Bonneville Bobber

This highlighted anticipated modern classic from Triumph looks as if it came roaring out of a 70s Triumph brochure. Featuring iconic bobber design features like the stripped back, low, single seat, wide flat bars and hard tail look, the new Bobber is friendly for all riders with its adjustable riding position. Though it runs the same 1200cc engine as the Bonneville T120 but has been tuned for a more distinctive Bobber sound. What is really unique here though is the 16,000km service intervals, and the RM74,900 asking price if you opt for the single colour scheme. Or RM75,900 for the dual colour scheme.

Bonneville T100 and T100 Black

Two of the favorites in the Triumph range, the T100 and T100 Black represent the entry point to the Bonneville family. Both bikes share the iconic silhouette and some of the modern features found in the top of the line T120. Both are powered by the same 900cc engine which now features more torque, enhanced fuel economy, and a deeper exhaust note. The price starts from RM63,900 for the Jet Black colour scheme to RM65,900 for the dual colour scheme.

All-new Street Cup

Also based on the Bonneville family, the Street Cup is an all-new model and has been designed to deliver all the attitude, personality, presence and style of a contemporary cafe racer. It shares the same styling principles as the Street Twin and is loaded with distinctive features of an urban sports bike like the authentic bullet seat with alcantara finish, the cafe racer inspired seat cowl, colour matched fly screen, bar-end mirrors and even the polished stainless steel bezels that look like they came right off the more expensive Triumph Thruxton. The Street Cup is a genuine cafe racer with a reasonable price at RM65,900.

All prices quoted are inclusive of GST but without insurance.

CEO of Fast Bikes Sdn Bhd, the importer and distributor of Triumph Motorcycles in Malaysia, Dato Razak Al-Malique reassured Triumph owners and potential Triumph owners when he said, “The new price announcement reflects on our assurance to introduce these models at a realistic price range,” adding that the company is in the midst of finalizing the pricing for the Street Triple S variant and also the Street Scrambler.
