Triumph Factory Custom

ULTRA-PREMIUM CUSTOM MOTORCYCLES

Supercharged Bobber

 

 

 

The new Triumph Factory Custom story represents the most beautiful, exclusive and desirable motorcycles ever made.  Designed and crafted to the highest standards of specification and finish, these motorcycles are ultra-premium limited editions, inspired by a passion for the global custom scene and the absolute pinnacle of their kind with astonishing levels of performance, equipment and technology

Advancing the way motorcycles are created has always been a major part of Triumph’s success dating back to 1902; from the very first historic Triumph No. 1, to Edward Turner’s revolutionary parallel twin engines, through to today’s hair-raising 2019 Moto2™ 765cc Triple powerplant.

This is the story of how our latest approach to designing and building custom special motorcycles – the Triumph Factory Custom concept – became a reality.

CREATING YOUR OWN CUSTOM SPECIAL

Triumph motorcycles continue to take pride in designing, engineering, testing and hand-building motorcycles that give our riders the starting point for the perfect ride, and creating one’s own custom special is an aspiration that many Triumph owners embrace.  It’s why over 80% of Street Twin riders choose to personalize their motorcycle and the latest Bonneville Speedmaster has a range of over 130 genuine accessories.

This ethos for creativity and personalization enables a whole new generation of Triumph owners to create their own custom motorcycle while maintaining all the stunning beauty and authentic character of a performance motorcycle.  It’s this enthusiasm that we notably embraced for ourselves in 2014.

Triumph Bobber Custom

DESIGN CHALLENGE

In 2014 a challenge emerged from within Triumph Motorcycles’ Hinckley headquarters. Supported by new advancements in capability and driven by their own passion for customization, our community of designers
and engineers took on the task of creating a vision of the ultimate Triumph custom build.  Two teams were formed, and two fully-functioning prototypes were meticulously designed, engineered and hand-built.

“TFC1” AND “TFC2”

The result was two of the most beautiful Triumphs ever created; a Bobber and a Scrambler, known as TFC1 and TFC2, respectively.  Both displaying stunning custom engineering innovation, exquisite curves and an aesthetic that showcased the incredible potential of in-house custom Triumph builds.  These beautiful creations only intensified our passion for customizing, and TFC1 and TFC2 heralded the beginning of an exciting new approach to Triumph factory customs.  



CUSTOM INSPIRATION

Inspired by these handcrafted successes, as well as the huge growth of our own Modern Classics lineup and retro custom category, we have been leading a transformation in customer personalization for years, with Triumph motorcycles featuring as the starting point for countless professional builds.  The worldwide interest for Triumph custom specials continues to grow every year and the many examples of individual creations we build in our own factory workshop, for our own brand fans, continue to showcase our enduring passion for the art of the motorcycle.
