TRIUMPHThunderbird Nightstorm Special Edition 2015 - 2016

　　In 2015, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Triumph Thunderbird Nightstorm Special Edition, a cruiser motorcycle based on the standard Storm model but with a more aggressive look due to more blacked-out components.

　　Compared to the base Storm model, the special edition machine featured a custom paint job with ghost flames and a hand-painted tank logo, a blacked-out exhaust system covered with highly highly-resistant paint, a black-finished handlebar, mirrors, and a braking system with most components black.

　　In the aesthetic department, the bike had standard features, such as a twin round headlight system, a straight handlebar, a teardrop-shaped fuel tank with an integrated instrument panel, a two-piece dual seat, a dual exhaust system, and blacked-out five-spoke alloy wheels.

　　The bike was built around a tubular steel twin-spine frame with a 47 mm Showa telescopic fork on the front offering 120 mm wheel travel and two five-position preload-adjustable twin Showa shock absorbers on the rear with 95 mm wheel travel.

　　The bike's wheels were fitted with two 310 mm floating discs tied to four-piston Nissin calipers on the front and a 310 mm disc coupled to a dual-piston Brembo caliper on the rear, providing excellent stopping power.

　　As for the power figures, the 2015 Triumph Thunderbird Nightstorm Special Edition had its heartbeat set by a massive 1,699cc four-stroke parallel-twin liquid-cooled engine that delivered 98 hp at 5,200 rpm and 156 Nm (115 lb-ft) torque at 2,950 rpm.
