Triumph Thruxton by Tamarit – Triumph owners are spoiled for choice when it comes to customizing the legendary two-wheeler of the British brand. There are dozens of suppliers out there who can help you, but today we'll focus specifically on Tamarit Spanish Motorcycles.

Based in the port city of Alicante, Tamarit has been operating in the custom world for several years and its strength is high quality and plug-n-play which is gaining prominence thanks to many well-judged builds. But it's this particular Triumph Thruxton that caught our attention. Best described as “a cafe racer with scrambler sensibilities“, this model is a test bed for a couple of new products: the “Quilla” spoiler and the “Cupula” screen. To show them off, Tamarit borrowed a 2005 Thruxton model. "The project was to make a café racer,” declared the owner of Tamarit Matias Canales. “But we also wanted to do something special and radical. We had no limits.”

Tamarit designed every part bolt by bolt without the slightest effort and, on the front, the “Cupula” fairing worked around the original headlight, which is now mounted on new brackets and covered by a protective grille. Walking down, Spanish customizers have fitted the front fender of the Triumph Thruxton with their “Little Bastard” fiberglass and fixed the new “Quilla” spoiler in the lower part of the frame. The seat is one of the most popular items in the Tamarit catalog and is housed directly on the fixing points of a Bonneville, a Scrambler and a Thruxton, without the need for mod frames, while a more "tidy" tail and the typical rear light of Tamarit have replaced the rear mudguard.

To give the Triumph Thruxton a subtle “scrambler vibe”, the two-wheeler was fitted with a “Papillon” stainless steel exhaust system and two dual-sport tyres: a Mitas E-07 at the rear and a Heidenau K60 at the front (since the Mitas E-07 is only available in 18 inches). “We all had an idol in our teenage years, so what better way to christen the bike than with mine, Mr. Kevin Schwantz. I would never have said that he was the greatest, there will always be Agostini, Rossi and in the future Márquez, but I have to say that he was the most spectacular of all." Canales added.

Now that “Mr. Kevin” is complete and will be put up for sale and so will all the parts you find mounted on it.
