2016 Triumph Bonneville Model Preview
Instead of me rehashing everything that’s been previously written about the 2016 Bonneville, let me use this space to summarize some of the news for you.
2016 Triumph Bonneville 1100 (aka Street Tracker)
Hmm… A new 1100cc Bonneville. This has the most merit in becoming reality, as it’s been written about ad nauseam.
An all new 11oocc , water cooled, parallel twin that is replacing the existing 865cc engine across the Bonneville lineup (Bonneville, Thruxton, Scrambler), and it’s producing a whopping 90 bhp (not true as we know it now).
The Street Tracker has been spotted in numerous spy shots, the latest from MCN has it in undisguised form. No word on how much this beast is going to weigh.

2017 Triumph Bonneville Bobber
The media are calling this a 2017 model, but it seems like it could be announced this fall (2016). A hardtail with a solo seat, based upon the same engine of the new Bonneville.
My opinion only, but I think this is a long shot.
