LA MACHINE, the exclusive Bonneville T120

During a bespoke motorcycle building process, Trust is the guideline between the owner and the craftsmen. Éric is one of those who blindly trusted our team. For him, we built LA MACHINE over the base of a Triumph Bonneville T120.

Éric fell in love with our creations, so he wanted BAAK to build a unique model that wasn’t already created before. We chose to equip his Triumph Bonneville T120 with all the latest innovations designed and manufactured by our team to give character back to his motorcycle, including airbox removal kit, our aluminium handlebar controls, our short seat kit, flat yokes…Sobriety, classicism and elegance, La Machine est very representative of BAAK’s work and represents one of our most-advanced projects. We focused on purifying as much as possible the line of the motorcycle while not making it look stripped-back.

The work accomplished on the chassis and the weight loss make this Bonneville T120 the perfect partner for the winding roads of Lyon’s countryside on which you can come across Éric now.
