Triumph Bonneville Bobber
The Triumph Bonneville Bobber has a top speed of 177 km/h, produces 77 hp and weighs 228 kg. Motoryk rates it 8/10.
De Triumph Bonneville Bobber werd in 2017 geïntroduceerd als onderdeel van de moderne klassieke line-up van Triumph, geïnspireerd op de custom bobbercultuur van het Amerika van de jaren 40-50. Hij werd gebouwd op het watergekoelde Bonneville-platform van 1200 cc en viel op door zijn in de fabriek gebouwde, op maat gemaakte esthetiek, met een ontwerp met één stoel, brede voorvorken en een laaghangend profiel. In 2018 volgde een Black-editie met hogere specificaties en het model is populair gebleven omdat het authentieke bobberstyling combineert met moderne prestaties en betrouwbaarheid.

Wat kopers moeten weten
Strong Reliability Record
The Bonneville Bobber's 1200cc High Torque engine is widely praised for durability with minimal issues reported beyond routine maintenance. Most owners report trouble-free riding well past 20,000 miles with proper oil change intervals.
Watch for Electrical Gremlins
Early 2017-2018 models had reported issues with the switchgear and occasionally the throttle-by-wire system — always check service history for dealer software updates. A pre-purchase inspection should include a full electrical systems check.
Holds Value Well
The Bonneville Bobber retains resale value better than many cruiser competitors due to strong brand desirability and limited used market supply. A well-maintained example typically holds 70-80% of its original value after two years.

Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"A beautiful, characterful cruiser that rewards patient, shorter-haul riding."
$8,500-$12,500 usedThe Bobber is genuinely one of the most cohesive motorcycles Triumph has built in years — it looks exactly like it should sound, and that 1200cc High Torque engine delivers in spades. Low-down grunt is addictive, the single-sided swingarm is a proper head-turner, and that 16-inch front wheel actually handles better than it has any right to. Used examples from 2017-2019 are plentiful now and represent solid value, but inspect the suspension carefully — the monoshock rear is firm to the point of punishment on rougher roads and some owners modified it early on. Watch for aftermarket exhausts, which are everywhere and vary wildly in quality. The stock pipes are genuinely good, so treat any swap as a question mark until you hear it run. Also check seat condition — that solo saddle is polarizing and replacements aren't cheap. Electrical gremlins are rare but do surface on higher-mileage bikes, particularly around the switchgear.
