Triumph Bonneville Bobber // A Factory Bobber?

[@BenJamin-bn1pu]

I would also love this kind of breakdown/review of the Indian scout bobber. great vid dan

[@WatchMattGo]

Yup love my scout, really quick cruiser it surprises everyone that has never ridden one

[@olisticarms]

Me tooo!!!

[@zeepro_tv]

Just make sure it's got the mini apes!!! Despite being a bobber the Scout 1200 bobber is none of the most comfortable bikes available.

[@Bedevere]

I have the chief bobber, and bobified it further. Can't recommend it enough.

[@Mat253]

The Scout Bobber is a very fast and well handling motorcycle.....but, it's not a real Bobber.

[@zeitgeist2720]

Did 200 miles on my ‘98 Magna today I thank you everyday for convincing me to buy one

[@HashMaster1776]

Please do more moto vlogs. The community is dead, there’s only a few left, and you are the OG man.. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@keithulhul7540]

It kills me. The only hold out is shade tree and jake. And blockhead sometimes

[@Hollows_over_balls]

Yeah man dam fell off quick!!!!

[@eckobot_d-.-b]

Stoked you of all did this review. Huge fan of your magna so your perspective is appreciated and you. 🍻

[@hunterbunn1404]

I love how animated and excited you are during this. Truly enjoying just being on 2 wheels, what we should all remember more and feel more when we ride, just have fun

[@renerodriguez2364]

I have a 2022 Triumph bobber with forward floor boards/foot control, mini apes, a Fox frame shock and blacked out Hines & Kane pipes. I also had the stock seat post drilled out to put the stock seat back further....it is hands down a bad to the bone bike!! It can be customized with an even larger rear tire if one prefers. I love it because it combines a retro look with a bit of a hot rod look and a cruiser all rolled into one bike....i love mine!! If you don't like the higher ape hangers, just bring them back about 3 inches and you will feel like you have more control over your steering....

[@logancarpenter3766]

A few things to note about this particular bike: It's straight piped, looks like an x-pipe and British Customs shotgun slip-on. I believe that slip-on does actually have a bit of muffling, which is why it doesn't sound like absolute ass. The stock bars and seat are WAY better than the aftermarket parts on this one, which you touched on. There are good aftermarket (not to mention factory accessory) bars and seats, but the stock setup is actually pretty great. The stock bar-end mirrors are excellent, whoever put that mirror on there made a oopsie Those are aftermarket foot controls, the stock ones are mid controls and suit the look of the bike pretty nicely. You can get aftermarket foot pegs that look more classic or sporty or whatever you want, and Triumph has a factory forward control accessory. There are a number of other aftermarket parts on there, like an airbox delete and a tail tidy that make it more "custom bobber" feeling. I like these mods, but they're not for everyone. People underestimate these bikes because the Bonneville seems like such a tame and gentlemanly bike, but they rip when you lean on them, and they sound great when you open them up with a more free flowing exhaust setup. You noted that it has a lot of electronics, which I agree with. If I had my way, Triumph would make a "dumb" model with carbs and no rider aids or anything (maybe except ABS cuz laws or whatever) to make it feel like a more classic motorcycle experience, but unfortunately, that's just not what sells these days. The great thing about this platform is that there are so many things you can do to it to make it exactly what you want, like the previous owner obviously did. There's never going to be an aftermarket like there is for the Sportster, but there's definitely more out there than anyone who owns one of these is likely to have the money for.

[@SpeedySpartan]

Dude this thing has so much character/charisma it's CRAZY. I was not expecting that since others like the Indian Scout Bobber (which I like still), or Harley Lowrider/Street Bob have that "factory feel/blandness" that you talked about. I really like this thing AND THAT DECEL SOUND IS NASSTTTYYY OMFG 😍

[@Roguerider_86]

I used to own this bike! Sold it about a month ago. I miss it. You should have mentioned all the upgrades or modifications that were made to this bike, levers, turn signals, fenders, chain to belt conversion … you will not find another bike quite like this one!

[@johnsnyder9842]

What exhaust did you put on that thing? Sounds amazing! I have a 2020 Bobber and I love it.

[@patrickmetcalf3147]

Mr.Dan Just want to say thanks for getting my into motorcycles got my first bike last week and take my msf class in 3. 2016 Shadow 750 Ive already put 300 miles on it! I'm addicted

[@scottmckinstry1698]

As an owner of this bike, I loved this review. Pure elation on open throttle - hell yeah brother! 😂 And yeah, first thing I did was get a Corbin seat. Has more hump in the back to cradle the buns.

[@3percentmick705]

These are sick bikes out of the box.

[@TheChrisglasgow]

They need an exhaust as stock exhaust is too quiet

[@TheChromeRonin]

I could just see this with low bars, or even clipons, a cafe bobber.. However, as a factory bobber, there's a mission other brothers out there with exactly the same bike. SO for me I'd also do custom paint. But that engine and exhaust, what a beauty! Just grabbing another gear, or engine braking on a steep downhill, snapping and crackling, snarling and woofling, just glorious!

[@meatsceptermcgee2051]

Christopher walken impression is spot on

[@HashMaster1776]

Don’t lie 😂

[@joshualehmann5029]

Dan, you should totally make a video of just you doing bloopers, I love your videos regardless. The bloopers are absolutely hilarious though.

[@kanethomo2483]

I can't stop looking at the hair man 😂😂 eyes on the bike! Oh oh there's his big ass head again shiiiittttttt😂

[@dontneedone990]

yeah, the Jesse Pinkman cut ain't it. That's for sure.🤣

[@brogan_dornon]

Those end credit bloopers were killing me 🤣

[@xavierpowers6220]

For the first time ever I found a bike I actually want, started looking and I find it hilarious that the two things you didn’t like were things that were changed from the factory version, stock is low bars and a thick curved single seat

[@ecchiyaro]

DIWD motorcycle reviews lets fucking go.

[@V4demon_]

My dream bike. Got a VFR for my first bike ( which i do love) but the bonny bobber just looks and sounds amazing. Saving up for this gorgeous beast.

[@MrJman967]

Dan you kill these style of videos!!

[@leemast967]

The thorten one hundred bobber builds are insane

[@tylerdoop]

It's absolutely insane that you made this video after I literally JUST bought my triumph. I LOVE my bike.

[@NostalgicMotorcycles]

It shifts like a bolt action rifle. I’m dead ! 😂

[@ryanairwingclaire4119]

BAM!!! YOU‘RE IN GEARRR!!

[@NostalgicMotorcycles]

@@ryanairwingclaire4119 pretty much !

[@TomSJazzBass]

It's been a minute since I've watched one of your vids but that was super fun. That Triumph sounded SICK

[@Sleepyless]

As someone from another country this might be the closeset I'll ever get to a real bobber, thank you so much for the review my man, I need it now

[@Seth-ix1il]

I'd like to point out you can hear it shift. Not just because of rpm, but the trans itself.

[@jaythemusicman801]

I'm 6'4" with a wingspan of 7'2". I lovvve a bobber with apes. This thing is heckin neat to me Edit now I've seen the whole thing: i like it extra because you called it a boykissing triumph. Also video slaps my dude

[@RichardJamesWellingtonIV]

My man can scratch his toes standing up

[@Filmingtherush]

Hey Dan! love seeing these kind of videos again! I had a 2018 bobber black with the BC racing pipes. Crazy loud, crazy quick (for how skinny she is), and genuinely fun. Sold it because oil started leaking through my wiring harness from the stator. Apparently common in bmw's too. Edit: I don't kiss my son on the lips Edit: #2 shoutout to your right turn single being on for like 5 minutes lmffaoo

[@jonno94]

Those apes arn't factory, triumph do mini ape option, but are not as high as those, the seat is not factory, triumph do some optional seats which are probably way comfier than that one, the forward controls don't look factory either, the bobber comes with mids from the factory, but triumph do a forward option, the same that is fitted to the speedmaster. But i have a bobber with optional apes and short fenders and comfort seat, with Vance & Hines factory pipes and it is a nice place to be.

[@Nerdy_Biker]

Was going to say, I've spent a lot of time looking at buying a Triumph Bobber and I didn't recognize half of the mods on that bike from the factory!

[@jonno94]

@@Nerdy_Biker Triumph do have a big catalogue of custom parts for the bonneville range, especially the bobber, i don't think any of the mods on this one are from triumph, but i still love the way it looks. Like i mentioned, i have a one that happened to have a lot of those optional parts fitted by the previous owner, ive owned a lot of bikes over the years and this is my 1st classic/cruiser/bobber style bike, i test rode a few bikes, harleys etc before purchasing the bobber and i love it, i reckon it's going to be a keeper for years. Worth mentioning, with the standard mid mount pegs, the bike corners very well and dosent touch done as easily as the forward mounts.

[@That_WhiteTrash]

🤣the end of this video had me crying we need a video of nothing but dan bloopers

[@Brian_Tylor]

Love that Jackson rides with you man😢

[@tylerward9277]

Thoroughly enjoyed the bloopers and your humor during them on this one lmao

[@TheChrisglasgow]

Got a 2019 triumph bobber myself. Nice little bikes..Deceivingly quick an they sound really nice.

[@ryanairwingclaire4119]

What‘s the exhaust on this one? That‘s the cleanest sound i‘ve heard of this beauty yet!

[@DanielPerry444]

Ive always wanted to build a triumph bobber, just based on the sound alone. God damn does that bike sound good 😩

[@StuffwithNeon]

Luxury Bobber it what it sounds like. The sound that comes from it is amazing.

[@Costell0]

It felt so strange for me when I recognized that intersection with the Publix when you passed by it

[@twitch3851]

Glad your back to doing bike reviews always a entertainment when dan post!!! Lobe ya dude

[@a_s10_blazer]

12:18 dan reps every direction 😂😂

[@gageeubanks3733]

I just looked at this bike at Wow Saturday. Now i am definitely interested in going back for it

[@markokeeffe3133]

Irish got the black bobber 2019 and the speedmaster 2020 great 👍

[@benmccaskey3940]

The sound of that bike is 12/10 - magna is a 14/10

[@HeathenBeard]

Sorry bro, the Triumph sounds better than the Magna! LOL

[@TheChrisglasgow]

Definitely

[@IREDDITONCRACKED]

I gotta say, I’m watching this with headphones in the gym, and that thing sounds amazing.

[@TheChrisglasgow]

They sound even better when your riding them I got 1 myself

[@Henry-cb7fg]

Hey Dan, interesting format. I would love to see you build more on the style in the beginning. Maybe mix the stationary elements of the video and complementing it with the riding content.

[@hockey5397]

Reminds me of my VTX1800. Biggest vtwin ever produced, 1795cc’s of autism backed with v&h big shots and it’s absolutely obnoxious and I love it.

[@salvatoredantes1690]

This bike is nothing like your honda vtx 1800. Shame on you. The vtx was made by God himself

[@loosingparts6159]

WOW motorcycles is a great place too. I just looked at this bike the other day. I e got a Bonnie but been wanting a bob for a while.

[@ALANatWork]

I'm still waiting for the day when he rides a done-up Dyna... Maybe something crazy like a Super Glide w/ a S&S 124ci with the "dyna bro" special consisting of a Saddleman step-up seat, T-Bars, and Memphis Shades Fairing. I bet he would have a blast.

[@LILDJFREDD]

That thing is freaking sick dude!

[@RubyXIII]

i'm so happy we got another dan x wow motorcycle review 😭

[@-sh1t]

Mildred! Nice music taste yo.

If it didn't have the hangers it'd be so sick lol

This was one of the best sounding bikes I’ve ever heard

[@TheChrisglasgow]

You should hear them in person they sound amazing

[@MrPepe71junior]

I like this video a lot got to see another magna type of bike ,I like cruisers but honestly the sound of the bikes are a need as well cause it’s aesthetically pleasing 😊

[@MuddyTubMedia]

As a triumph owner, I kinda want one of these to go with my street triple

[@GarageHooning82]

I've literally been looking at these the last week and bam you make a vid

[@RubyXIII]

dan's got me wanting a bike i most definitely can't afford

i’ve been eyeballing these things for a hot minute

[@um_fu1326]

I’ve always loved bobbers never owned one but I’ve ridden a couple hundred miles on one in the uk

[@McMullen-LongMotors]

So youve peaked my interest in buying a magna for my first bike and probably a forever bike... i just need to know is there a year i should look for or any years i should avoid? I see a bunch of magnas for sale i just have no idea how to make sure i get a good one lol love what youre doing with the channel Mr. Do it, sir. Keep it up👍

[@Pr0digy47]

The hair dosent actually look bad also love the review style video 🤙🏻

[@XxRoflcoppterxX]

You'd probably love the bobber black or one of the newer bobbers with the bigger front forks and brembo brakes. Awesome vid love your reviews 💯💯

[@TheChrisglasgow]

Older ones are more desirable.

If you ever have a chance hop on a old triumph Bonneville I have three vintage triumphs and those bikes might not be that fast but they have a completely different life to them

[@hillsboroughhighlights]

You hit that 2nd 3rd gear and it’s like waaaaaaaaaa

[@eliseoarroyo2030]

You found a niche once again Dan. Do more reviews I will watch them.

[@mrbelinus]

Beautiful bike, great sound, good-looking. I'd rather try one of these with a flat bar.

[@Daniel-dj7fh]

I think the Triumph Bobber is one hella hot bike. And I'm one of those who was never interested in cruisers/ choppers/ deathwobble-clappers

[@Daniel-dj7fh]

But personally not with ape-hanger bars tho.

[@Daniel-dj7fh]

If I were to get a cruiser type bike, and I really have nothing better to do it's either gonna be a Rocket3, a BonevilleBobber or the Honda Rebel500 modified to a bobber (because I really don't care about power on a bike which looks like it doesn't handle).

[@tateclarke8487]

Love you Dan

[@josephcrow7516]

WellP… I want one. You had me at terrifying!❤

[@NOC1TIME]

Personally. I would ride it anywhere. Yeah if you need bagger stuff. This is not your bike. This is based on the vintage bobber. Wind in your face bugs in your teeth bobber. I like it.

[@joshcrabtree4016]

Free mustache rides from Dan

[@maguslascivious4980]

They need to do the single shock on all the bonnies..

[@dillondavis2550]

@ 9:40 hey Dan, you mentioned the magna’s sound. How do you feel about the Yamaha Vmax sound? Since it’s a V4 as well. I love the sound of them with an open header

[@alfieg1344]

I absolutely love this bike and would own one for sure. However, part of the appeal of a "bobber" is that they're cheap, you buy a 20 year old bike and strip it to basics. In the UK I could have about 3/4 crappy old bobbers for the price of this modern bike, that unfortunately breaks the deal.

[@3percentmick705]

It’s truly amazing you don’t have more speeding tickets than you do 😂

[@RandysRides]

Bobbers are fair weather, short ride bikes. No fenders is just stupid. Eating rocks and rooster tails of wetness isn't a good ride. Besides, most front fenders are also load sharing shock stabilizers. They dog track and twist without them. Love your Magna, but it needs parts. lol

[@-Dylanxmalone]

Completely disagree it’s the freedom

[@RandysRides]

@@-Dylanxmalone I don't get it. What's "freedom" got to do with getting drenched by a rooster tail or sketchy steering ?? You gotta explain that.....

[@-Dylanxmalone]

@@RandysRides i understand what ur saying. It’s like driving a Manuel vs automatic ,Less is more. It’s more then just a ride, remember after a long day of hanging with friends when little, you bring ur bike back and ur dirty.
