• The Black editions differ from the standard bike with blacked-out components

• Bookings open at all Triumph dealerships across the country 

Triumph India has launched the new Bonneville T100 and Bonneville T120 Black editions at Rs 8.87 lakh and Rs 9.97 lakh, respectively. Bookings for both motorcycles are open across India. Interestingly, the bikes are priced the same as their standard counterparts.

The Black editions of the Triumph Bonneville T range feature blacked-out components instead of chrome that’s on the standard versions. These components include black engine casings, twin pea-shooter exhaust, mirrors, headlamp rim and the wheels. The T120 Black also gets a black grab rail and brown seat to distinguish it from its lower-capacity sibling. The liberal use of black all over the classic design aims to add a touch of modernity and will appeal to those who do not like the bling of chrome on their motorcycle.

The T100 Black is powered by a 900cc parallel-twin engine that produces 55hp and 77Nm. The T120, on the other hand, has a 1,200cc, parallel-twin engine that makes 80hp and 107Nm of peak torque. Compared to the BS4 motors, the T120's BS6 engine makes slightly more peak torque.

The Bonneville T100/T120 Black editions feature a double cradle chassis, telescopic forks and tweaked rear suspension with longer travel for better bump absorption, says Triumph.

Like the rest of Triumph's modern classic range, the T100 and T120 Black get an electronic safety net in the form of dual-channel ABS and switchable traction control. The T120 also gets two riding modes, Road and Rain. 

Other common features include ride-by-wire, USB charging port and an engine immobiliser; the T120 also gets heated grips.

The Bonneville T100 Black is available in two colours – Jet Black and Matt Black – while the T120 can be had in Jet Black and Matt Graphite.
