The Triumph America was a cruiser motorcycle made by the British company Triumph since 2002 and was designed and manufactured at the Hinckley Factory in Leicestershire, England.

In 2014, the British maker released the Triumph America LT, a more touring-oriented machine than the standard model. The bike came with additional touring accessories that enhanced its long-haul capabilities.

Compared to the standard Triumph America, the LT version packed an additional detachable windscreen for better wind protection, a passenger backrest for more comfort, and side-mounted waterproof leather panniers for extra storage.

Besides that, the LT version packed the same specifications as the base model, with standard features, such as a round headlight, a one-piece dual seat, a dual exhaust system with a silencer on each side, and lightweight 12-spoke aluminum wheels.

Between the front and rear wheels, the 2014 Triumph America LT had installed an 865cc four-stroke twin-cylinder air-cooled engine fed by an Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system, boasting 62 hp at 6,800 rpm and 72 Nm (53 lb-ft) torque at 3,300 rpm.

The bike's 12-spoke wheels were fitted with a 310 mm disc tied to a dual-piston Nissin caliper on the front and a 285 mm disc with a two-piston Nissin caliper on the rear, offering optimum stopping power.

In addition, the bike was available in three colors, Phantom Black, Pacific Blue, and Sapphire Blue, at an MSRP of $9,500.
