Triumph Bonneville T120 Diamond Edition







In 2019 Triumph celebrates the 60th anniversary of the most iconic twin in history, the 1959 Bonneville, with the beautiful Bonneville T120 Diamond Edition, featuring a one-off premium paint scheme and a unique level of high specification finish and detailing. When the iconic Bonneville T120 first hit the headlines in 1959, it did so at the dawn of a cultural revolution headed by a new generation of teenage motorcyclists with a new sense of optimism, individualism, and freedom. This fresh vibrant attitude for life at full throttle would become indelibly linked with Triumph motorcycles and, 60 years on from the year those first Bonnevilles took the motorcycling world by storm, we celebrate with something truly special. Still an undisputed motorcycle icon, with a spectacular silhouette that captures the very essence of what a motorbike should be, we now present a unique limited edition version of Triumph’s best-loved modern classic; the Bonneville T120 Diamond Edition.
