Triumph Motorcycles is adding a stunning, exclusive and expensive Bobber TFC (Triumph Factory Custom) to its new customised range as expected.
It joins the equally beautiful Thruxton TFC and Rocket TFC.
And like those limited-edition models, only 750 numbered bikes will be available worldwide.
Triumph Motorcycles Australia hasn’t said what their allocation will be or whether it will be by customer order, only.
There is also no price yet, although as a gauge the THruxton TFC is over $30k.
Bobber TFC
Like the other TFC models, it comes with more power, better suspension and lashings of carbon fibre.
Power is up 7.5kW (10hp) to 64kW and 17.9Nm of torque which is a 4Nm bump in grunt.
They say there is 39% lower engine inertia resulting in 500rpm higher revving, while the bike is also 5kg lighter than the Bobber Black.
Apart from fully adjustable Öhlins forks a shocks, it comes with Arrow mufflers with carbon fibre end caps, Dual Brembo M50 monobloc brake calipers, Brembo MCS radial master cylinder,
three riding modes (road, rain, sport) and LED lighting.
Every Bobber TFC owner will also receive a special tailor-made TFC handover pack unique to their bike.
It features a numbered letter hand-signed by Triumph’s CEO Nick Bloor, a personalised custom build book, a Bobber TFC bike cover, a TFC document wallet and a leather TFC branded rucksack.
