Triumph Motorcycles India has launched the BS6 Bonneville Speedmaster in India which is priced at Rs. 11.34 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). The Jet Black and Cobalt Blue colour options are priced at Rs. 11.34 lakh while the Fusion White with Phantom Black and hand-painted lines variant is priced at Rs. 11.64 lakh. The Cobalt Blue is a new colour option for the 2020 model. The pricing is similar as on the BS4 model, although we believe that this is introductory pricing and the company is likely to increase the prices in the near future. Apart from a BS6 compliant engine, all features and specifications on the Bonnie Speedmaster stay the same. In India, the Speedmaster goes up against the Harley-Davidson Custom 1200.
