Production of the Speed Twin 1200 RS Cafe Racer Edition is Staying true to the cafe racer look, the bike features clip-on handlebars, a colour-matched headlight cowl, and a striking green and silver dual-tone paint scheme. Adding to the retro appeal is a quilted tan leather seat, which gives the bike a premium finish.

Powering the motorcycle is the same 1,200cc liquid-cooled, twin-cylinder engine used in the Speed Twin 1200 range. It produces 105 PS and 112 Nm of torque. The bike also shares the same chassis and top-spec components, including fully adjustable Ohlins suspension, Brembo monobloc brakes, and Metzeler Racetec RR K3 tyres.

Like the Speed Twin 1200 RS, this special edition comes equipped with a bidirectional quickshifter, turn-by-turn navigation, USB-C charging socket, LCD and TFT dash, making it one of the few modern classic Triumphs to offer this feature. The full set of electronic riding aids is also carried over from the RS, ensuring modern performance to match the classic cafe racer styling.

The limited edition Triumph Speed Twin 1200 RS Cafe Racer Edition retails at GBP 15,995 (around Rs 20.22 lakh) with just 800 units on sale, it highly unlikely that we get to see any of these on the Indian roads. Customers based out of UK will have the initial access to secure their limited edition motorcycle via Triumph's new Reserve My Triumph technology. The aforementioned service of reserving the bike will be introduced in a phased manner across Europe and other major markets. Bikes are expected to arrive at the dealerships by March 2026.
