2009 Triumph Speedmaster
 
With its dark, brooding lines and a pared-down hot-rod
essence, the Speedmaster is a standout middleweight
cruiser from every angle.
Powered by a fuel injected, 270º crankshaft,
version of Triumph’s esteemed 865cc parallel
twin engine, the stripped down factory custom delivers
peak power of 62PS (61bhp) at 6,800rpm, with maximum
torque of 74Nm (55ft.lbf) available at just 3,300rpm.
As a hot-rodded ‘Factory Custom’, the
Speedmaster proves that less is more, and minimalism
is key to the bike’s harder edge. The rev-counter
is mounted discretely on the fuel tank nacelle, the
large round white-faced speedo perches cleanly in
the rider’s line of sight on its top-yoke mounting.
A two-tone colour combination of Phantom Black and
New England White is new for the 2009 model year,
joining the singular Phantom Black option. Also new
for 2009 are colour-coded side panels, giving a more
stylish and cohesive look.
Completing the hot rod look are cast wheels, 18
inch at the front and 15 inch at the rear. Twin 310mm
front discs – gripped by twin-piston calipers
– bring the Speedmaster to a halt with power
and assurance, while the twin shocks and wide-style
telescopic forks make for a planted and supple ride.
And if the stripped down look doesn’t quite
meet the individual’s taste, there is always
the extensive range of Triumph Genuine Accessories
specifically designed to lend even more style and
individuality.
