The Triumph Bobber and Speedmaster 1200 represent the pinnacle of British custom engineering, combining the raw attitude of a 1940s bobber with the refined touring capability of a classic cruiser. Central to these machines is the 1200cc High-Torque engine, housed in a chassis featuring the iconic "swing-cage" rear end. At British Legends, we supply Triumph Bobber and Speedmaster 1200 parts and accessories that respect this unique architecture while allowing for deep personalization, focusing on premium materials like brushed steel, genuine leather, and CNC-machined alloys.
Customizing these twins requires an understanding of their distinct personalities. For the Triumph Bobber, the goal is often "less is more." Many owners opt for side-mount license plates, short-cut fenders, and minimalist lighting to emphasize the floating seat and rear monoshock. Conversely, Triumph Speedmaster 1200 accessories often lean towards long-distance comfort, including beach-bar handlebars, pillion backrests, and classic leather panniers. To unlock the engine's character, we provide high-performance exhaust systems that replace the bulky factory mufflers with shorter, more resonant pipes, significantly narrowing the bike’s profile while enhancing its rhythmic pulse.
A critical technical nuance is the evolution of the front end and braking systems. The early Bobber featured a 19-inch front wheel and single disc, while the Bobber Black and the current Speedmaster 1200 utilize 16-inch wheels and twin Brembo calipers. This affects the mounting points for front-end Triumph Bobber and Speedmaster 1200 parts and accessories such as mudguards and fork covers. Furthermore, the 12-liter fuel tank on newer models changed the clearance for certain handlebar setups. At British Legends, we ensure that every mounting kit is verified against the specific production year and model variant to prevent interference with the bike’s sophisticated ABS and traction control sensors.
While the main frames are identical, the Speedmaster features a different subframe for the pillion seat. Installing a Bobber seat requires specific conversion Triumph Bobber parts and accessories to hide the Speedmaster’s exposed mounting points.
Yes, but clearance is tighter than on a standard Bonneville. Our Triumph Speedmaster 1200 accessories catalog includes de-cat systems specifically designed to fit alongside the cruiser-style foot controls without vibration or heat transfer.
