Complete guide to understanding the DNA of the Triumph Bonneville Bobber, choosing the right configuration and enhancing your machine with premium accessories designed by FCR.
The DNA of the Triumph Bobber: between tradition and modernity
The Triumph Bobber is unlike any other motorcycle. Heir to the bobber style born of post-war preparations, it asserts an assertive minimalism: stripped-down lines, Seat solo, compact tank, taut silhouette. Triumph has transposed these codes into a contemporary interpretation: a reliable Triumph Bobber, full of character and designed for customization.
What is immediately appealing: a low center of gravity that enhances stability, an engine packed with torque, and an immediately recognizable visual presence. The result: a charismatic machine, elegant when stationary, lively in motion, that speaks as much to the heart as to reason.
Bonneville Bobber: an exceptional technical and aesthetic base
Beyond style, the Bobber stands out for its unique riding experience. The stance is low and engaged, the floating Seat emphasizes the line, and every acceleration releases a deep sound that contributes to the emotion.
- Low center of gravity: feeling of control and natural handling.
- Floating soloSeat : visual signature and controlled comfort.
- Clean line: compact tank, shortened mudguard, highlighted rear wheel.
- Sound: deep and mechanical, true to the bobber spirit.
The Bobber as seen by FCR Original: French craftsmanship at the service of style

Exhausts: unleash the sound
A Bobber speaks through its lines... and its sound. Our exhausts in stainless steel or black ceramic finish visually lighten the rear and offer a more raucous, controlled and refined tone.
Intake & air filters
Our intake /air filter kits allow the Bobber to breathe better while enhancing the raw aesthetics (exposed filters). Plug & play installation, simplified maintenance, consistency with the original or prepared mapping.
Riding position & controls
- CNC rearsets: more engaged posture, precise feedback.
- Handlebars & grips: refined ergonomics, grip and comfort.
- Compact mirrors: discreet, effective, minimalist spirit.
Rear line & license plate brackets
The bobber signature is best viewed from the rear three-quarter angle. Streamlined license plate brackets, compact lights and 3-in-1 turn signals (tail light/brake light/turn signal) refine the silhouette while maintaining perfect visibility.
Details & finishes
The finishes make the difference: caps (Monza/Billet), FCR stamped radiator grilles, aluminum engine guards. Details that enhance the perception of quality, without compromising use.

FAQ: Triumph Bobber
