TRIUMPHThruxton R Supercharged ''The Bulldog'' 2016 - 2017

　　In 2016, Triumph launched two unique versions of the Thruxton 1200 R model to compete at Germany's 2016 Glemseck 101 motorcycle festival. One was named The White Bike, and the other was The Bulldog.

　　Both machines packed the same 1,200cc parallel-twin engine of the standard Thruxton but with an additional off-the-shelf Rotrex supercharger that increased power from 96 to 139 hp and torque from 112 to 157 Nm.

　　The 2016 Triumph Thruxton R Supercharged "The Bulldog" featured a cafe racer style like the original Thruxton and was powered by the same 1,200cc parallel-twin engine as the standard R version but with an additional supercharger that enhanced power and torque.

　　In addition to the supercharger, The Bulldog received a six-speed transmission with a modified and uprated wet multi-plate assist clutch, Thunderbird injectors, and a custom fuel ignition map.

　　In the aesthetic department, The Bulldog featured a custom black and red color scheme, a smoothed rear end, a hand-built dash, LED front lights, black-finished wheels, a comfort rider seat, a MotoGP braced swingarm, and a custom-made exhaust system with twin single pipes.

　　As for the power figures, the 2016 Triumph Thruxton R Supercharged "The Bulldog" had its soul brought to life by the same 1,200cc four-stroke parallel-twin liquid-cooled engine as the standard R version, delivering 139 hp and 157 Nm.
