Triumph Motorcycles has discontinued the Scramblers (both 900 and 1200) along with the Bobber, Speed Twin and Thruxton R from its India line-up. This was in line with the transition from BSIV to BSVI compliant emission norms., wherein all these motorcycles were sold with BSIV complaint 900cc and 1200cc engines. We have learnt that select dealerships in India were offering an attractive discount of upto Rs 2.5 lakhs on these models.

Triumph Thruxton R even though was one of the most appealing offerings did not receive a strong demand in India, which was also the reason for Triumph to ditch the Thruxton RS for India

The company's line up presently consists of modern classics such as the Street Twin, Bonneville range of T100, T120 and Speedmaster that come with BSVI complaint engines. The prices of which will be increased next month. Triumph recently launched the Black Editions of the T100 and the T120 at Rs 8.87 lakh and Rs 9.97 lakh, ex-showroom. The roadster range has the Street Triple RS priced at Rs 11.13 lakh for now and will soon see an addition of the R variant, which is expected to arrive in the next couple of weeks.
