Admin Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Triumph’s Stealth Edition models include a variety of Modern Classic bikes and will be made for a single year. (Triumph/) Triumph has hit upon a recipe for success with its recent “one-year-only” special-edition motorcycles. For 2024 the theme is a combination of black and candy metallics for the new Stealth Edition range. Continuing in a similar manner to the Gold Line Editions of 2022 and the Chrome Collection that took over in 2023, the Stealth Edition bikes encompass Triumph’s Modern Classics range, offering exclusive paintwork for a small premium over the standard colors. 2024 Triumph Bonneville T100 in Blue Stealth.

Tied in with black forks, fenders, and headlight bowls, the look manages to be subtle but with a dash of eye-catching color. The tank paintwork is achieved from a silver metallic base coat, with the black fade applied on top before multiple layers of tinted lacquer add the final color, creating an effect that changes depending on the light. Eight bikes get the treatment for 2024, each model with its own unique color. The Bonneville Speedmaster, for instance, comes in Red Stealth Edition while its related Bonneville Bobber sibling comes as a Purple Stealth Edition variant. Shifting across to the more standard Bonnevilles, the 900cc T100 Blue Stealth Edition and 1,200cc T120 Blue Stealth Edition—both with blue tanks—are the main options, while the T120 Black Stealth Edition gets a tank that fades to silver at the back, with blacked-out engine, rims, matt black mudguards and engine covers, and a black exhaust. 2024 Triumph Scrambler 900 in Orange Stealth.

The Scrambler 900 comes in Orange Stealth Edition form. There’s no “Stealth” version of the Scrambler 1200 range, which has recently been updated for 2024, and similarly the Thruxton doesn’t get a “Stealth” variant, instead going into its last year in 2024 as the Thruxton Final Edition. When it comes to pricing, Triumph follows the same pattern it adopted for the Gold Line and Chrome Collection models over the last couple of years. That means the 1,200cc Stealth Edition bikes all get an $800 premium over the MSRP of their equivalent base model, while the smaller 900cc Stealth Edition models are $750 more expensive than the base versions. 2024 Triumph Speedmaster in Red Stealth.

(Triumph/) The Stealth Edition models are due in production in February 2024, and will only be made for one year, just like their Gold Line and Chrome Collection predecessors. No doubt there will be another new limited-production range for 2025, but in the three years that Triumph has used the one-year-only model pattern the company has found very different directions for each collection, so if you like the look of the Stealth Edition bikes, you’ll need to get your hands on a 2024 model. 2024 Triumph Speed Twin 900 in Green Stealth.
