Years
2020 - present
Thruxton RS (2020–heden)
GenerationThe Thruxton RS develops the 1200 R with a higher-output 1200cc twin, Showa/Öhlins hardware and a more sporting finish. Look for an explicit RS designation: a regular 1200 from the same period is not an RS.
Years
2016 - 2019
Thruxton 1200 / 1200 R (2016–2019)
GenerationThe 2016 generation is not a bored-out 865 but a new liquid-cooled 1200cc twin with much more torque and modern electronics. The R is chiefly distinguished by Öhlins suspension and Brembo brakes; engine and base output are shared with the standard 1200.
Years
2008 - 2015
Thruxton 865 injectie (2008–2015)
GenerationThe injected 865cc Thruxton retains the air-cooled classic platform but starts and fuels more consistently than the carburetted version. Its injection is deliberately disguised, so establish year and VIN rather than relying on appearance alone.
Years
2004 - 2007
Thruxton 865 carburateur (2004–2007)
GenerationThe first modern Thruxton combines the air-cooled 865cc twin with carburettors and a deliberately simple café-racer specification. Its early engine and fuel system make cold running and maintenance more important than on the later injected bike.
About the Triumph Thruxton
The Triumph Thruxton is the café racer in the modern Bonneville family. The first Hinckley generation arrived in 2004 with an air-cooled 865cc parallel twin, low clip-ons and an unmistakably classic stance. Carburettors later gave way to fuel injection without changing its straightforward character. From 2016 the name moved to an all-new liquid-cooled 1200cc twin; the Thruxton R added premium suspension and brakes. The 2020-on Thruxton RS is the sharpest version, with more power and a lighter-focused sporting specification.
A Thruxton is bought as much for its riding position and look as for its engine. Its wrists carry more weight and its pegs sit higher than on a Bonneville, making it rewarding on flowing roads but less relaxed for two-up touring. When viewing a used example, establish whether it is an 865, a 1200/R or an RS rather than relying on the name alone: the engines, electronics and parts situation differ materially.

What to check before buying
- On an 865 with carburettors, check that it starts and idles cleanly from cold; stale fuel and dirty carbs commonly cause rough running.
- Check valve-clearance service history and listen for unusual mechanical noise from the cam cover on a cold start.
- Inspect spoked wheels, exhaust headers and fasteners for corrosion, particularly on bikes stored outdoors or used near the coast.
- Test clutch, brakes and suspension on a 1200/R/RS; a dropped café racer can damage expensive clip-ons, tank panels and premium suspension parts.
- For modified 865s, ask for the original exhaust, intake and ECU/carburettor setup; piecemeal changes can harm rideability.
