TRIUMPHThunderbird Storm 2011 - 2012

　　In 2011, alongside the standard model, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Triumph Thunderbird Storm, a cruiser machine powered by a larger engine with more power and torque, twin headlights, and a blacked-out appearance.

　　The 2011 Storm model featured twin headlights with black housings, a straight handlebar, a teardrop-shaped fuel tank, a two-piece dual seat, a chrome exhaust system, side-mounted shocks with black springs, black five-spoke wheels, and a black engine with polished cooling fins.

　　The bike was built on the same chassis as the standard model with a 47 mm Showa telescopic fork on the front with 120 mm wheel travel and twin five-position adjustable Showa shock absorbers on the rear, offering excellent handling.

　　The braking system was retained from the standard model, with two 310 mm floating discs tied to four-piston Nissin calipers on the front wheel and a 310 mm disc with a two-piston Brembo caliper on the rear wheel.

　　As for the power figures, the 2011 Triumph Thunderbird Storm had installed underneath its fuel tank a 1,699cc four-stroke parallel-twin liquid-cooled engine fed by an electronically controlled fuel injection system, delivering 97 hp with a peak force at 5,200 rpm and 156 Nm (115 lb-ft) torque at low 2,950 rpm.

　　The engine power was transferred to a six-speed manual transmission with a wet multi-plate clutch linked to the rear wheel through a final belt drive.
