As registrations open for The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride (DGR) 2026, Triumph Motorcycles has revealed a unique Gentlefolk Prize motorcycle; a one off custom Speed Twin 1200 Cafe Racer DGR Edition created exclusively for this year’s event.

The DGR, taking place worldwide on Sunday 17 May, brings riders together to raise funds for men’s mental health and prostate cancer research. In 2025, 127,000 riders took part across 1,038 rides in 108 countries, raising an incredible $7.6M USD for Movember. As the event’s official motorcycle partner, Triumph continues its long standing support of the global charity ride.

To mark 15 years of riding dapper, Triumph has crafted this unique Speed Twin 1200 Cafe Racer as the Gentlefolk Prize. Its standout feature is a bespoke Harris Tweed® seat, made from authenticated, handwoven fabric from the Outer Hebrides, a material closely associated with the style of DGR riders around the world. The motorcycle also features a dedicated 15 Years of Dapper anniversary graphic and number board, along with a certificate of authentication.

A spokesperson from the official Harris Tweed® Authority said: “It is exciting to see Harris Tweed® used in this way for the creation of the Gentlefolk Prize Motorcycle. Just as The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride and Triumph have taken their unique style and quality around the world, our Harris Tweed® is handwoven in the Outer Hebrides and recognised and valued around the world; a global symbol of craftsmanship, tradition, and enduring quality. We are proud to contribute to a motorcycle created to help raise money, celebrating global unity and the collective impact of riders everywhere.”
