There has been a rise in the number of motorcycle owners and riders during the pandemic. It is an absolutely great way to get around without having to expose yourself so much to other people like you would if you were to get into public transport. 

However, as motorcycles have become a necessity to some people, many people still don’t buy just any motorcycle and you should too. You should carefully select high-quality motorcycles to purchase. Did you make a recent purchase on a motorcycle or are you still in the market for one? You can never go wrong with buying from a classic brand like Triumph. 

For 2021, they have a few motorcycles in the modern classic category. Although it’s already late in the year, these motorcycles are still available and you can still get your hands on them. There is still a lot that is worth getting. Here’s a list of the motorcycles currently available and our insights about them. 

The Modern Classics

Triumph Street Twin

Starting off with the modern classics is this Triumph Street Twin 2021 version. The modern classics are based on the Bonneville that’s why they look so timeless. But apart from the timeless style, it is also a bike that’s meant for the streets. It features a 900cc twin engine. Although it isn’t the fastest one, it is pretty decent enough. Apart from that, you can make your twin as unique as you want with over 140 accessories available.

Triumph Street Twin Gold Line

This is a newer model that’s only been released this year. It is still considered as a Street Twin model but with a twist. There are only 1000 units available for this limited edition model. 

The main difference of this with the Street twin is the gold and black paint scheme that’s hand-finished to perfection. Apart from that, it also has lightweight cast wheels, custom side panels, and machined detailing. 

Triumph Bonneville T100

The Street Twin is a play of the base Bonneville, this one is the true base-Bonneville. It provides nostalgia to the fullest as it looks like the classic Bonneville. The only difference is the modern engine, accessories, and other features. It is also ergonomic so you’ll be riding it comfortably while it looks vintage. 

It is fitted with the same 900 cc twin engine that packs 59 lp-ft of torque and 65 hp. It is a great choice for those looking into a motorcycle for the city as well as highway treks.

Triumph Bonneville T120

It is fitted with a 1200 cc twin engine that increases the torque to 77 lb-ft and 80 hp. However, it is more expensive than the T100 models.
