Triumph has expanded its range with the T40 and T40 Black, two bikes aimed at riders looking for a more affordable way into the British brand. These new “baby Bonnies” focus on simplicity, retro styling and lower running costs than the larger Bonneville models.
The Black version adds darker finishes and a more aggressive feel. For Italian riders, the launch is noteworthy because it fits the growing demand for middleweight classic naked bikes, where style, easy handling and everyday usability matter most.
