Triumph Speedmaster revised

Triumph has given its Speedmaster cruiser a mild update for 2014.

The changes are mostly cosmetic, with the focus being the switch to a black finish for numerous components including the headlight housing, handlebars and five-spoke wheels. Paintwork choices are now either Phantom Black or Matt Graphite with twin Matt Black centre stripes.

Power still comes from an air-cooled, 865 cc, parallel-twin engine that produces 60 bhp (44 kW / 61 PS) and 72 Nm (53 lb/ft) of peak torque. Triumph says some tweaks have made it sound better than before, though.

The UK on the road price for the 2014 Speedmaster has been set at £7,199, an increase of £170.

Various models have received this treatment in recent years, including numerous Jaguars and even the Shelby G.T.500CR . Now it’s the turn of the Jensen Interceptor, a car originally built during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Jensen International Automotive , based in Thame, Oxfordshire, has just delivered the first of its Interceptor R models. And, with an annual production figure of 18 cars, it’s a product that will be very exclusive. In a process lasting around five months, each Interceptor R is totally rebuilt from a suitable donor car.
