2022 Triumph Bonneville Speed Twin First Look T he 2022 Triumph Bonneville Speed Twin has lower emis- sions than the previous version and approximately three more horsepower (99 hp at 7250 rpm) in addition to more power in the midrange than the previous generation. The responsiveness of the 1200cc twin engine has also been enhanced, thanks to a 17% reduction in inertia obtained via a new lightweight crankshaft and alternator. Triumph explains that these enable the engine to spin up faster than the previous gen- eration and rev harder for longer, with a red line now 500 rpm higher than before. In addition, the 2022 model gets new high- compression pistons, revised ports and a new cam profile. For 2022, the Speed Twin is available in three paint schemes: Red Hopper scheme, Matte Storm Grey or Jet Black. MSRP is listed at $12,500 and it is expected in dealerships this August.
