2019 Triumph Bonneville Bobber Black Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Built around Triumph's classic motorcycle platform, the 2019 Triumph Bonneville Bobber Black utilizes a 1200 cc (73.2 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 77 HP (56.2 kW) at 6,100 rpm while maximum torque reaches 106 Nm (78.2 lb-ft) at 4,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 64.2 HP per liter and a 2,100 rpm working window between peak torque (4,000 rpm) and peak power (6,100 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the Bonneville Bobber Black measures 237.5 kg (524 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.32 HP/kg (3.08 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 690 mm (27.2 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,510 mm (59.4 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 9-liter (2.4 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 4.1 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 220 km (137 miles) between fill-ups.
