The luxury touring segment has another new player – sub $30K -- with the British entrant receiving its public unveiling at the 2012 Tri-Days event in AustriaTriumph’s open luxury touring secret is now officially out in the open, with the 2013 Trophy SE unveiled at the Tri-Days gathering in Austria and expected to go on sale in Australia later this year for $27,990.
Powered by the same 1215cc triple as the Explorer adventure bike, the shaft-driven Trophy SE has a full cupboard of features including ride-by-wire, electronic suspension adjustment, integrated audio ABS linked brakes, traction control, cruise control, tyre pressure monitoring system and more.
The engine delivers a 134hp at 8900rpm and 120Nm of torque at 6450rpm, and service intervals are every 16,000km -- with major ones every 32,000km. Fuel capacity is 26 litres.

Rider and pillion passenger comfort is further enhanced with a range of accessories seats in varied heights as well as a heated front and rear seat option. The standard rider seat height can be adjusted between 800-820mm.
The adjustable electronic suspension is from suspension specialist WP, which is operated via an ergonomically designed switch cube. Riders select their preferred damping setting -- Sport, Normal or Comfort -- and combine it with the bike’s loading – Solo, Solo plus luggage or two-up -- and then review their settings via a dot matrix LCD screen.
The new Trophy SE will remain on display at Tridays until June 24, and will make a further appearance at Triumph Live event at Mallory Park, Leicestershire, which starts on August 31. The international press launch is planned for early September, 2012.
