Triumph India recently launched the Bonneville T40 range in India. The retro roadster gets three variants, the T4, T40 and T40 Black. The base T4 variant is priced at Rs 2,54,999 (ex-showroom, Delhi). While it doesn't hold back in terms of performance, it gets limited features and a more minimal design. Here is all you need to know about the T4:
Looks
The design is heavily derived from the bigger Bonnevilles, like the T100 and T120. It gets retro elements like a round LED headlight, taillight and indicators, spoke wheels, twin shock absorbers, and pea-shooter exhaust. The monotone colours keep the overall design simple and graceful.
