It looks like Triumph are not at all shy to create a special edition classic bike which is in fact a tribute to another classic two-wheeler. At least that's what we figure out learning about Triumph's latest announcement: a motorcycle which pays homage to the last bike manufactured in the Meriden plant.
Triumph has manufactured motorcycles at the plant in Meriden, UK for 4 decades, between 1942 and 1982, prior to becoming bankrupt one year later and starting anew in the Hinckley era.
The special edition Bonnie sports the same color scheme as the last Triumph T140w TSS manufactured at Meriden in 1982.
Finished in elegant black and silver, this special Bonneville also comes with machined accents on the cooling fins, black oil lines and mirrors, and a chromed out passenger grab rail. The engine covers are all brushed metal.
The UK price for this sweet retro-look machine is £7,499 ($12,010 or €8,839), with some more added in case it makes it across the pond.
