Eight models from Hinckley's Modern Classics line-up get the bespoke Gold Line treatment. Instead of being limited by numbers, the Triumph Gold Edition models will be on sale for a period of one year, with no cap on production figures.
In order to showcase the expert hand-painting skills of its paint shop and cater to ever-growing customer demand for more custom-inspired paint schemes, Triumph Motorcycles has revealed eight bespoke Gold Line Editions from its Modern Classics range of motorcycles, which celebrate the craftsmanship of hand-painted details and unique colour schemes. The Gold Line Editions are available for the entire 2021 Bonneville range (the T100, T120, T120 Black, Bobber, and Speedmaster) and the Scrambler models (the Street Scrambler, Scrambler 1200 XE, and Scrambler 1200 XC). It's worth mentioning that the Gold Line Editions feature no mechanical updates over their standard counterparts.
Here's a look at what each Gold Line Edition has to offer.
Bonneville T100 Gold Line
The Bonneville T100 Gold Line Edition features a Silver Ice and Competition Green colour scheme. While the fuel tank, side panels, and the front & rear mudguards are finished in Silver Ice, the Competition Green highlights the fuel tank infill and the side panel stripe graphics. The hand-painted gold lines can be seen on the fuel tank as well as the side panels.
Bonneville T120 & T120 Black Gold Line
While the Bonneville T120 Gold Line Edition sports the same colour scheme as the T100, the T120 Black Gold Line Edition features a Matte Sapphire Black base colour and uses Matte Silver Ice for the tank infill and the side panel stripe graphics, both of which also get hand-painted gold lining. Thanks to the already blacked-out engine, exhaust, wheels, and numerous other blacked-out details, the Sapphire Black and Silver Ice colour scheme complements the bike's stealth look.
Bonneville Bobber Gold Line
The Bonneville Bobber Gold Line Edition features Carnival Red as the primary colour on the fuel tank and mudguards. The former further gets a twin stripe design, with brushed foil knee pad graphics. These elements, along with the Sapphire Black side panels, feature the hand-painted gold lining as well as the new gold badges and lettering.
Bonneville Speedmaster Gold Line
The Bonneville Speedmaster Gold Line Edition features a Sapphire Black twin stripe design on a Silver Ice fuel tank, which also gets brushed foil knee pad graphics. The Sapphire Black embellishes the side panels, headlamp bowl, and mudguards, while the gold striping and the bespoke 'gold line' logo can be found in abundance on most of these elements.
Street Scrambler Gold Line
Unlike the Bonneville family, the Street Scrambler Gold Line Edition brings along a vibrant Matte Pacific Blue and Matte Jet Black paint scheme. While a Graphite fuel tank stripe and brushed foil knee pad graphics provide a contrast to the blue, with an accompanying hand-painted gold lining, the mudguards and side panels have been finished in Matte Jet Black. The gold 'Triumph' lettering on the tank further adds to the contrast look.
As the Gold Line Editions are not bound by a production cap, expect these to reach our shores sometime early next year. However, only a select few versions are likely to make it here.
*Details of the Scrambler 1200 XC and XE Gold Line Editions not mentioned in the official press release.
