Pros Cons Triumph Thruxton R

Pros

  • Powerful engine 
  • Good braking
  • Excellent suspension

Cons

  • Needs better gearbox

  • Limited service network

Verdict

The Triumph Thruxton R looks great, sounds great and it's so much fun to ride. Practicality and trackside bragging rights about power output figures may well take a back seat because the clean café racer lines and a decent list of features, coupled with a delightful engine make this a beautiful motorcycle worthy of your garage. The steep asking price maybe a problem and the availability as well.
