Triumph Speed Twin 900
The Triumph Speed Twin 900 was introduced in 2019 as a modern reinterpretation of the iconic Speed Twin name, originally made famous in 1938 when Edward Turner's parallel twin design revolutionized motorcycling. Built on the Bonneville platform and sharing its 900cc engine with the Street Twin, it was positioned as a more performance-oriented retro roadster with improved suspension and a sportier riding position. It proved popular for blending classic Triumph styling with modern reliability and everyday usability.
