A Triumph Thruxton is preparing to be launched – the Final Edition

The Thruxton was and is a motorcycle that goes beyond being a bike to stand out in the role of defining a style, a fetish. Here we could really use that term that today is so inflated that it has lost its meaning, namely icon. Personally, I prefer to say that the Thruxton is a diva and, like any diva, is getting ready for her last big appearance before retiring. So let’s stay calm, because the Triumph Thruxton is still here and is ready to celebrate its exit from the scene in an elegant and refined way, with an exclusive version destined to be a collectible piece in the future and now something to enjoy on the road. High performance and timeless appeal have always been the seductive weapons of the British café racer. The FE was developed on the technical basis of the current RS, so it is the most sporty of the Thruxtons, with a complete set of equipment that is the result of years and years of development and continuous updates. What immediately catches the eye is the finish – which Triumph does not hesitate to describe as impeccable – in the exclusive Competition Green paint, the green that has always characterized British racing motorcycles. The golden threads are handcrafted and each motorcycle has the author’s signature.

In addition, with each FE comes a certificate of authenticity with the unique frame number of the motorcycle and signed by the members of the Thruxton 1200 design team and Triumph Motorcycles CEO, Nick Bloor. An exclusive Final Edition engine emblem with a gold frame and the “Final Edition” logo will also be provided with each motorcycle.

So, we summarize some of the highlights of the Final Edition:
