2023 TRIUMPH MODERN CLASSICS REVEALED

Triumph Motorcycles is continuing its new trend of bold colours on its bikes with the reveal of the 2023 lineup of modern classics . Triumph says the new colours are in response to the success of last year ’ s Gold Line Editions , with the 2023 models bringing brighter , more distinctive , and more elegant colour options across the legendary Modern Classics line-up . The new colours come hand-in-hand with Triumph ’ s re-naming of two of its 900cc offerings . The new names for the Street Twin and Street Scrambler were chosen to better represent the family connections across Triumph ’ s iconic Bonneville line-up , and their specific engine capacities . That means for 2023 the Street Twin becomes the Speed Twin 900 and the Street Scrambler becomes the Scrambler 900 . SPEED TWIN 900 The newly re-named Speed Twin 900 comes in three colours , including classic Triumph Jet
Black , a Matt Ironstone and a sophisticated new Matt Silver Ice option , which comes with silver and yellow accents . This new paint scheme includes a Matt Silver Ice fuel tank with silver and yellow graphics , Jet Black side panels with new Speed Twin 900 logo and Jet Black front and rear mudguards . SCRAMBLER 900 The newly re-named Scrambler 900 comes in three colours , with a classic Triumph Jet Black , a new Carnival Red and Jet Black scheme with striking and contemporary new graphics , plus a new Matt Khaki scheme that celebrates the Scrambler ’ s iconic off-road heritage . The new Carnival Red and Jet Black paint scheme includes a Carnival Red fuel tank with contemporary Jet Black stripe detailing and Jet Black side panel , frame cowl and mudguards . The iconic new Matt Khaki colour scheme features a Matt Khaki fuel tank with Matt Jet Black side panel , frame cowl and mudguards .
