TRIUMPH Thruxton 900 (2013-2014) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2013, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Triumph Thruxton 900, a cafe racer-styled machine powered by a twin-cylinder air-cooled engine. The bike debuted in 2004 and continued production until 2016 with minor modifications.

In the visual department, the bike was similar to the previous model, except for a front headlight cowl. It also packed standard features, such as a single seat with a passenger seat cover, a dual exhaust system, a side stand, and wire-spoke wheels.

In the handling department, the bike packed a tubular steel cradle frame with a 41 mm preload-adjustable Kayaba fork on the front and twin preload-adjustable Kayaba shock absorbers on the rear, offering optimum suspension performance and handling.

In the braking department, the bike's wheels were fitted with a 320 mm floating disc coupled to a dual-piston Nissin caliper on the front and a 255 mm disc with a two-piston Nissin caliper on the rear.

The 2013 Triumph Thruxton 900 had installed underneath its fuel tank an 865cc four-stroke parallel-twin air-cooled with a fuel injection system in charge, delivering an output power of 62 hp with maximum strength at 7,400 rpm and 60 Nm (44 lb-ft) torque at 3,500 rpm.

The bike's power was transferred to a five-speed manual transmission with a wet multi-plate clutch linked to the rear wheel through a final X-ring chain drive, pushing the motorcycle to 185 kph (115 mph).
