        Although I wouldn't feel comfortable riding the Triumph Speed Twin for extended distances, riding in a city may be fun because you're always moving around on the seat.

        A super Bonneville, the Speed Twin is. It combines traditional styling with contemporary braking, suspension, and an absolutely adorable parallel-twin engine.

        This bike provides a cosy riding position. But in congested areas, the Speed Twin tends to get hot.
