Triumph announces its Modern Classics models for 2023

Triumph just announced its 2023 Modern Classics lineup, and guess what? Next year, we’re going to see a whole lot of bold new graphics. Or, as the press release puts it, “a new and exciting range of color options for the entire Triumph range.” Triumph says this builds on last year’s Gold Line Editions, which demonstrated a desire “for brighter, more distinctive, and more elegant color options.” You want a flashier bike? Triumph will deliver.

There’s also some name changes; the Street Twin is now the Speed Twin 900; the Street Scrambler is now the Scrambler 900.

However, both those bikes remain mechanically the same as before, as do the rest of these models. Look to Triumph’s electric lineup for this year’s big announcements (we expect more news in the next few days). Otherwise, see new colour choices listed below, with specs and pricing at Triumph’s Canadian website here.

Note that there are other machines outside the Modern Classics listed below as well, indicating those bikes will likely remain unchanged for next season, unless the name remains the same and the mechanics are updated (highly unlikely).
