Triumph has announced a special edition motorcycle that’s sure to interest fans of the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll. The 2025 Triumph Bonneville T120 Elvis Presley Limited Edition is limited to only 925 units worldwide and celebrates Elvis and his Memphis Mafia group of friends who rode on Bonnevilles.


Inspiration for the Elvis Presley Limited Edition came from a story in 1965. The story attests that Elvis was hanging out with his “Memphis Mafia” friend group in Bel Air shortly after Jerry Schilling had bought a new Triumph T120 Bonneville. After Elvis took it for a ride, he ordered Bonnevilles for the whole group of nine buddies, who rode their new bikes late into the evening until neighbors complained about the noise.

Triumph Motorcycles is currently in search of the Memphis Mafia Bonnevilles, and anyone who has information about these bikes is asked to email elvistriumph@triumphmotorcycles.com.


The Bonneville T120 Elvis Presley Limited Edition has been crafted to honor its namesake. The Carnival Red color scheme was inspired by the J Daar custom Bonneville, which was created to raise money for the Elvis Presley Charitable Foundation in 2023. The bike also features “ELVIS” gold lettering on the tank, which Triumph intended to represent set lights. Also on the tank and side panels is Elvis’s signature.


A more subtle detail for Elvis fans is the “Taking Care of Business in a Flash” emblem on the front fender. The line was said to be a personal mantra of Elvis and the design featured on the necklace presented to each of his Memphis Mafia friends.

Other details include tank stripes in Aluminum Silver, hand-painted gold line detailing, and a chrome finish on selected parts, including the sweeping exhaust with peashooter silencers. Only 925 of these special edition bikes will be made, and each one will feature a numbered handlebar clamp with Elvis Presley’s signature laser-etched onto it. The three-bar tank badge and machined engine fins recreate the look from the iconic 1959 Bonneville.


Each Elvis Presley Limited Edition bike will come with a Sony gold disc in an exclusive Elvis Presley and Triumph Motorcycles record sleeve, along with a certificate of authenticity signed by Triumph CEO Nick Bloor and Jamie Salter, founder, chairman, and CEO of ABG, Elvis Presley Enterprises.

The 2025 Triumph Bonneville T120 Elvis Presley Limited Edition will be available starting at $15,495 and will arrive in dealerships starting in September 2024. Customers can reserve bikes now at their local Triumph dealer.*
