Welcome back everybody to another Motobob video where today we're going to take a look
at what I believe is the first custom Triumph Speed Twin which was unveiled at the Jack
Lilly season opener event this week.
In the last video you rated the new Norton Atlas bikes a whopping 8.71 out of 10, with
some of the comments being really positive about the looks and the motor, whilst others
didn't really like the busy nature of the design.
So as always let me know what you think of this bike in the comments and if you'd like
give me a score out of 10.
Of course if you're new here and you want to see more videos like this then hit subscribe
but without further ado let's take a look at some of the changes made to this Speed
Twin.
Now when I say custom I'd probably call this more of a bolt on custom.
Given how long the bikes been in the dealers I think they've done about as much as possible
in a short amount of time and it looks like they were working on it right up until the
event from the looks of the Jack Lilly Instagram account.
They've called it the Street Tracker and so true to tracker form they're running on Pirelli
MT60 RS tyres on the front and back.
I'm sure you'll also notice the stock wheels which have been painted gold.
There's a little bit of gold elsewhere on the bike like in the pinstripes on the tank
so these tie in nicely.
The brakes remain as Brembos and I'd assume the fork internals haven't changed much as
there's not much point in doing that for a show bike.
Front mudguard is the standard brushed aluminium piece.
Moving up the bike we've got a headlight grill which I would assume is part of the accessories
catalogue from the Street Scrambler.
And actually a lot of the parts here are from the Triumph accessories catalogue and that's
probably the easiest stuff for the dealer to get their hands on for a short turnaround.
So we've got some off road grey Triumph grips and also some CNC Triumph levers.
The speed swing comes with bar end mirrors as standard but these have been removed and
replaced with regular bar ends.
I guess you wouldn't have mirrors on a genuine tracker.
Some Triumph engine badges are all I could really see different about the motor but I
really really like the shorty cone exhaust on the bike which sounded absolutely awesome
when they fired it up.
Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to capture that as it was a bit of a surprise but they
sounded roughly similar to the Vanson Hines on the bike that I test rode.
I assume these might improve the performance ever so slightly too but I think it's mainly
about opening up the sound of that 1200cc twin motor.
At the back end you've got a gold chain and also a gold sprocket to tie in with the rims
and paint job.
You've also got Ohlins shocks in that iconic yellow colour at the rear and that's going
to give you full adjustability whereas the stock suspension is only preload adjustable.
When I test rode the Speed Twin I thought the suspension was fine but if you're doing
track days or have a finer feel for handling than me then these will do the job of course.
I might have preferred the looks in black though which I've seen on some of the other
Triumphs in this range.
Most of the other stuff on the bike is stock like the seat, the rear lights and indicators
but of course you'll notice that white and red and gold paint job.
This was done by Surrey Customs who turned it around quickly for the dealer to deliver
it on the day I believe.
It's such a striking paint job it's probably going to be quite divisive in the comments
here.
Personally I prefer it when the panels stay black on Triumphs so that they look sleek
against the black motor and then use the tank to be creative but that's personal taste and
I think it's definitely a noticeably different paint job to the stock bike.
Jack Lilly were asking £13,999 for this bike and that's about £3,500 more than for the
stock bike in a plain black finish.
What do you guys think?
Let me know in the comments otherwise I'll catch you in the next video.
