TRIUMPH America (2010) motorcycle, general information, review and specifications
- Sometimes it isn’t recommended to go ahead and buy the first motorcycle that looks perfect to fulfill your riding needs even though your every single cell tells you to do so simply because there can always be an even more adequate alternative. That’s why we have the competition heading in all of our reviews, but in this case that’s not going to be the solution. Now, we’ve just wrote about the latest Triumph Speedmaster and that custom bike couldn’t have left you a bad impression, but people may want to go for the classic bike, and that’s where the 2010 Triumph America intervenes. So if you haven’t already made a deposit for the Speedmaster, the America can blink an eye at you as it is more comfortable without losing any of the British magic look -

General Information


Introduction
Cruisers are all about smooth flowing lines, a symphonic engine and a laid back riding position so it is good to see that the bike has all that. But why are we saying this before even mentioning anything about the engine at all? Simply because we’re dealing with the latest Bonneville engine, a fuel-injected version of the unmatched 865cc, air-cooled, DOHC, parallel-twin, 270 degree firing interval unit now found at the greatest level of performance and reliability thanks to the recent shot of modernity that it gets.

Like all America models before it, the 2010 model year comes with a five-speed transmission and X-ring chain final drive so that the best of the engine would be smoothly transmitted to the rear 15-inch wheel which, by the way, has a 170mm wide rear tire. Up front, we’re talking about an 18-inch wheel and a 110 wide tire. Stopping power is delivered to the 12-spoke wheels through 2-piston calipers acting on a single 310mm disc brake so that the stylish front wheels would stand out properly and 2 piston calipers acting on a single 285mm disc at the back.

America’s 41mm forks are positioned at a rake angle of 33.3 degrees, which is just perfect both for creating that nice classic look and only needing a pair of pullback handlebars in order to achieve a comfy riding position. But, we shouldn’t forget that the Triumph America, like the veritable cruising two-wheeled machinery that it is, comes with the frame and swingarm made of steel and that has much to do with the 550 lbs wet weight of the bike.

Thanks to a low center of gravity and a 60bhp powerful engine, that weight seems like being lost when accelerating. Also, with torque at 53ft.lbf, we notice that despite getting fuel injection, the bike does not feature increased performance figures which can only mean that Triumph replaced the old carburetors just so that the bike would meet environmental regulations and be as modern as their contenders are.

Press Reviews
"For a start the Triumph Bonneville America feels substantial, not spindly like the Harley 883, and sitting on the sculpted rider’s seat you feel like you’re on a ’proper’ cruiser, not a 883cc wannabe. Well, until you start the engine, that is." – motorcycle

"The vibration-free engine and respectable highway power might make you think about traveling on an America, and the bike will prove an able touring companion. Our sole comfort complaint concerns the rear suspension, which is not as responsive as we’d like over sharp bumps." – motorcyclecruiser

“Where the bike endeared itself to me was in the handling department. When the road curves, this is one cruiser I’d want to be on. Steering may not be light, but it is reassuring and the bike tracks through high-speed corners without wallowing.” – cycleworld

"Any journey over 45 minutes and your lower back will ache, the nape of your knees will be crying out for normal footpegs and your arms – which suspend most of your upper bodyweight against the windblast – will be calling time. Keep local, at around 60mph max, never stray onto a motorway, and you’ll be fine." – visordown

“…the Triumph America’s not regarded as a Harley clone or copy like so many Japanese cruisers. It’s a competent motorcycle too. It’s not particularly rapid or sporty but the Triumph America is a pleasure to ride and well put together." MCN
