With the new Bonneville Bobber TFC, Triumph is adding another exclusive model to its “Factory Custom” range. The strictly limited motorcycle combines historical design references, modern technology and the highest quality materials. Only 750 examples of this special edition will be available worldwide, making it a coveted collector's item. Here is a detailed look at the highlights.
The Bonneville Bobber TFC stands out from the standard Bobber thanks to numerous design details. The focus is on the two-tone paintwork with hand-applied accents in “Marble Gold”, which contrast with the deep black basic design. The handcrafted look is further emphasized by the painter’s signature on the underside of the tank. The design is complemented by shiny carbon fiber components such as the mudguard struts and side covers, which round off the overall look.
Functional design elements also contribute to the exclusivity: The slim 19-inch front tire contrasts harmoniously with the wider rear tire, while the clip-on handlebars provide a sportier riding position. High-quality golden details, such as anodized standpipes and engine cover emblems, round off the look.
Technology and performance: progress on two wheels
A specially tuned 1200 cc Bonneville Twin engine is at work inside, delivering a peak output of 78 hp (57 kW) at 6,000 rpm and a maximum torque of 106 Nm at 3,750 rpm. This means that the TFC not only offers sufficient power for everyday use, but also a noticeable increase in dynamics. An additional Sport mode ensures even more direct throttle response.
The chassis has also been optimized. A fully adjustable 43 mm Öhlins NIX 30 upside-down fork is used at the front, while a specially tuned Öhlins suspension strut at the rear ensures an optimum combination of comfort and sportiness. Brembo M50 radial brake callipers on the front axle guarantee reliable braking power.
Acoustics and weight: lighter, louder, better
The matt black Akrapovič silencers with carbon end caps not only offer a weight reduction, but also a throaty sound that perfectly matches the “hot rod” character of the Bobber TFC. Overall, the TFC is over 5 kg lighter than the standard model, which noticeably improves handling. With a ready-to-ride weight of 237 kg (522 lbs), the motorcycle nevertheless remains stable and confident.
Exclusivity and availability
Each model of the Bonneville Bobber TFC is provided with a numbered plaque on the triple clamp. Buyers can specify their desired serial number when making a reservation, provided it is still available. In Germany, the model will be available from 19,795 euros (approx. 21,430 USD). In Austria, the price is 22,395 euros. The motorcycles should be available at dealerships from April 2025.
Conclusion: Exclusive collector’s item with great riding fun potential
The Triumph Bonneville Bobber TFC is aimed at enthusiasts who are looking for a stylish and technically advanced motorcycle. With its limited status and attention to detail, it will not only be an eye-catcher on the road, but also in any collection.
