A limited edition mtorocyle from Hinckley, the 2026 Triumph Speed Twin 1200 Cafe Racer Edition, inspired by the original British cafe racers of the 1960s. Production is limited to only 800 units worldwide, with availability beginning March, and every Speed Twin 1200 Cafe Racer Edition comes with a. certificate of authenticity.
Based on the production model Speed Twin 1200 RS, the Cafe Racer Edition comes with a British racing-inspired colour scheme, combining Competition Green and Aluminium Silver paintwork with Empire Gold coachline, and “Cafe Racer Edition” graphic on the fuel tank. This is complemented with Aluminium Silver wheels and a colour-coded Competition Green headlight cowl.
Passenger footpegs are deleted (supplied with the Cafe Racer Edition in an accompanying box), while the clip-on handlebars and Clubman style seat, covered in brown, places the rider in a tucked-in racing crouch. Additional touches are machined bar-end mirrors, ribbed clutch and alternator cover badges, black head bolt covers and sculpted knee pads.
Meanwhile, the side panels, finished in Competition Green, feature a Number 12 graphic in Aluminium Silver. Brushed aluminium front and rear mudguards add contrast, complementing the Aluminium Silver elements.
Suspension for the Cafe Racer Edition uses fully-adjustable Marzocchi forks paired with Öhlins rear shock absorbers, also fully-adjustable. Braking performance is delivered by twin Brembo Stylema callipers acting on 320 mm diameter discs, while Metzeler Racetec RR K3 tyres come fitted as standard.
No specification changes otherwise, with the Bonneville 1200 twin engine with 270‑degree firing order producing 105 PS at 7,750 rpm and 112 Nm of torque. A quickshifter equipped six-speed gearbox sends power to the rear wheel via chain final drive.
There are three riding modes – Road, Rain and Sport – and cornering ABS and traction control are fitted as standard equipment. A road instrument binnacle houses both LCD and TFT-LCD displays, allowing for turn-by-turn navigation while a USB‑C charging socket is provided for charing the rider’s electronics.
Pricing for the Speed Twin 1200 Cafe Racer Edition in the UK this March is 15,995 pounds sterling (RM86,995). In Malaysia, the Speed Twin 1200 RS, pricing starts from RM93,400.
