Triumph Bonneville Speedmaster Review - Beyond the Ride

[@Roy_Camacho]

Out of all the videos I've seen, aside from the OFFICIAL Triumph channel this video has the BEST shots of the Triumph Bonneville Speedmaster being ridden on the road. Brilliant job mate! Thank you!

[@0neduke]

It only took me 41 seconds before closing the video because I'm so infatuated with this beauty of a bike that I'm about to just straight up buy this beast on the dot!

[@roundlake96]

What a superb review you have made. Great sound, editing and work in front and behind of the camera! Love that you show yourself on the bike as it makes it so much easier paint up a picture of myself on it.

[@willemfloris]

I agree

[@kevinpick194]

Nice review. I have the 2018 and would point out (as it was the biggest negative issue (or something to be wary of) that you referenced about a dozen times) that you can have the forward control mid-mounted, if you are concerned about where the controls are. It's a fantastic bike - I would recommend it to anyone. Great power, looks fabulous, comfortable and you can do masses to it to make it your own and add those personal touches.

[@ronlheureux7623]

I'm really enjoying your bike reviews over here in California. The Triumph Speedmaster is a real beauty. I like that it is physically larger than the original Bonneville. This bike has the presence needed today for modern motorcycling. Tale, care, my friend.

[@im58woody]

Without a doubt, you put together the best reviews on motorcycles that I have watched. I especially like the way you show seat height. I am also 5-6 in height so if your feet look comfortably planted I can be assured mine will. This Triumph is really appealing to me on all aspects. I will be saving up for one. Thanks!

[@poiXquared]

I thought something was off. And something indeed was. I was thinking "What's a crank angle parallel twin?" Then I realized it was the crank spacing as in 270-degrees for the MT-07, 120-degrees for the XSR 900's inline triple and 180-degrees for the Kawasaki Twins. @1:06 Editors missed the "270-degree" before "Crank angle" poor Jinno was only reading what was on the script :(

[@buddhastaxi666]

On a cruiser footboards allow you to vary your foot position. Upright straight back... knees at right angle. Bike beneath you....low centre of gravity....big motor or big torque at low to mid range so it can climb hills or accelerate out a corner without gear changing. Really big motors are actually awkward to manage in traffic. Well mine is anyway.

[@truth-12345.]

What a beautiful motorbike, I've been looking a modern classic bike that looked like Hermes from the Kino's Journey anime and this one actually looked like it.

[@karenallen5208]

I have a 2018 Speedmaster and LOVE it. He forgot to mention the bike has cruise control, and that's a wonderful feature I easily got spoiled by.

[@MrKamei]

What is cruise control?

[@karenallen5208]

@@MrKamei Cruise control, just like in a car, sets your speed so you don't have to hold the throttle. It's nice to have on the highway.

[@MrKamei]

@@karenallen5208 thanks karen. I don't have a car, nor driven one. 😀 I ride Yamaha rx135 very old bike. 😀 So, i don't have any idea what you are saying.😀 But thanks, it seems interesting to ride cruise control.👍👍👍

[@GI-kz5bl]

Best review ever 👌🏻 👏 From a short guy 👦 i will definitely buy this beautiful good looking bike. Thanks for the review

[@RUBBERNMETAL]

Awesome review man! Comprehensive and fun to watch. Keep up the good work.

[@tigerbalm666]

I'll take that over a Sportster ANYDAY!

[@skyhill4279]

I'm about to buy a Speedmaster but won't be selling my Sportster any time soon.

[@AMPSHOWS]

Great review! I have a blck 2018 Speedmaster, the same. I had to redo the seat, as it was not comfortable. I also swapped the forward foot controls for the Bobber's mid controls. I bet you would like them better.

[@charliedrake247]

Will the bobber controls fit the speedmaster and is it comfortable thank you for your reply 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿👍🏻

[@OlllOHD]

Would you have a picture or video of your speed master with mid controls?

[@joaofelipelima7769]

Great review and edition brother!!!

[@TimKollat]

I keep hearing from people that the speedmaster is "an old man bike" but I think its awesome for anyone. I dont like the beach cruiser bars and would swap them out for either the drag bars that the bobber has or some mini apes

[@anandsubramanian7427]

Nice crisp review. Learnt a lot more than what I saw till now. Great job!

[@cloud9847]

awesome review. Beautiful bike! I'm torn between this and a Street Twin. They are both exceptional bikes.

[@MaxMeridius0920]

This is an awesome bike, after 3 years I can’t wait until this damn snow goes away! And btw .. you can easily move the pegs to center controls! But after a few days I learned to live the ride position!

[@overwin2008]

Great review and video production, thank you! And btw, where are my Bonneville T100 and T120 videos? 🤔

[@mikedk9215]

Good that it was pointed out that the foot pegs are way fw. I don´t think I could get used to that. And the handlebar angle. But a beautiful bike

[@artvertex4152]

The bobber looks better but I still gonna get this one because of the utilities.

[@griffincui]

Excellent video! Much better than others, explains the pros and cons instead all pros. Great job!!! BTW, I have a 2019 Bobber Black.

[@zanathzanath7236]

Speedmaster= comfy and practical 👍

[@jlrutube1312]

When it comes to foot pegs it's mainly just what you are used to. I have always had cruisers so I am used to forward pegs. Recently my son let me ride his sport style bike and the pegs were way back compared to what I am used to and therefore, I couldn't hardly find the pegs after taking off from a stoplight. I would literally have to look back behind me to figure out where the stupid pegs were and I just about wrecked from looking down and back to see where the pegs were. It seemed dangerous to me. So really if you just ride a bike for a while you will eventually get used to the forward controls. Having said that, I personally like mid controls the best. The bike I have now has floorboards and I position my feet toward the back of the floorboard and so my foot is roughly about where a mid control would be.

[@KorouLisam]

i have this bike since 2018.. the build quality and comfort is really really good. its a cruiser...you would need to get the windshield if u wanna ride fast in the expressway... the rear seat is not that comfortable but you can get aftermarket.... sound is really good....i cant complain about this bike.... for a cruiser this is one of the best you can get....

[@rookietv5450]

Can you recommend a good aftermarket pillion seat? The only reason I’m buying this is because of the pillion seat I’m debating between HD sportster s, pan america, and this speedmaster. Maybe you could give some insights?

[@jayfitvlogs3729]

I am just waiting for Royal entitled Roadster 650cc which will be launched this year mid and surprise it looks the same 😁

[@turanamo]

no. the front wheel of the Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650 looks like cycle tires. ruins the look

[@bogiewheelman71]

It's a well-built, good-looking machine. But there is no Triumph dealer around my area.

[@limasenar7522]

With similar specs and few frame changes Triumph should just go on and revive the Thunderbird Sport model already, reminiscent of the 90s Hinckley icon. You know you'd want one. :)

[@andrewrogers2313]

Why not replace the riders foot pegs with rider floorboards?!

[@turanamo]

man, i was thinking in my mind why no one came up with a spring-loaded footrest mountable on the peg! And then I see your comment!

[@muranonika2725]

Tnx. Still one Q if you sugest as very first bike for 50+ man ?

[@larrynorsworthy8582]

These bikes are so user friendly, words can't explain. Im 55 and I love my street twin.

[@muranonika2725]

Tnx Larry! All the best!

[@rki.87]

Name of the gloves on this episode please?

[@aikidoshi007]

Great review, but the sound of the bike is paramount, scrap the music and let us hear it!

[@dennlorenzcabanero312]

great bike i'm a triumph fan hope you have a review of the street triple soon

[@stanleylawson9015]

great review , just started looking at this one

[@Lovepreet_Singh93]

If i ever wanted to spend this kinda money, this is the bike i’ll love to buy. It’s around ₹12-13 lakhs here in India.

[@dry509]

T120 any better? How is it over bumps?

[@tristanfilipinasmd9786]

Triumph or Harley? Its speed master vs Nightster Special soon. 🤔

[@franciskielb]

Those Fuel gloves? Pretty sweet.

[@juanchopapa3286]

Sonavaganz, thats P1M there in Philippines!!! thats almost double the price compare to $11K here in Vegas. Darn why bikes are so expensive there

[@matoko123]

A very good review, maybe the best :)

[@mistermark4496]

Great review video and nice motorcycle.

[@martyshmanka]

Looking forward to a Trident review from you.

[@cdgirl87]

great review . mines is a 2006 carby model

[@SagarHingalAI]

nice video man!

[@illsuspect]

Great review. Thanks

[@napoleonp.6956]

Indian scout review please..

[@rubensahak9178]

love that fat front tire double breaks front looks very masculine.Love it.I was torn between this and BMW R9t leaning on Triumph.

[@shoukathn5772]

Nice review.. Bro

[@markmarcelis]

great review, thank you

[@NBikerPH]

Can we try to put Kako in there for short guy reference? 😁

[@kyotosal]

You do videos of this bike perfectly. I know you really love the bike. I want one soooo bad. Thanks.........Sal : )

[@armzforte23]

Very good video, thanks.

[@silverwinter3075]

May I know what helmet you use here? I'm in love with that silver helmet

[@josemanuelerice442]

Biltwell lane splitter :)

[@charliedrake247]

Got one in red greatbike

[@tigerbalm666]

Isn't there a new Trident?

[@iansean324]

Are these made in UK or India or somewhere overseas?

[@larrynorsworthy8582]

Thailand

[@jbearbear6503]

5:56 What? You are riding 1200cc bike.

[@vickysingh-jg9te]

Overall seems to be gud bike.maybe in future it's next in jet black

[@jasonshortphd]

I have an older Speedmaster. You get used to the forward controls really quick. Honestly the wire wheels are a turn off to me (hard to keep clean). The only reason I want to upgrade is for cruise control. Ha

[@takenbythewindNdrivenbythesea]

Now that’s a bike for me ❤️❤️❤️

[@WorldGoods]

Why did he aggressively go after shorter riders at 5"9?

[@sirikorn.s]

What is the height of the rider?

[@eightballsidepocket9467]

Mostly shown from the right side because or that god awful gear linkage?

[@ronmanalo5001]

Shorter rider *coughs (are you pertaining to Onitsuka Tiger Tito?)

[@arviarnold886]

Kako!!! Caco!!! Coughs 2x👍 😀😂😎

[@vincecash1513]

Wala akong budget pero manunuod pa rin ako ng mga ganto

[@joeq.public281]

looks like you're having trouble reaching the handlebars🦖

[@winner1338]

Speedmaster or Bobber

[@georgeharsin6292]

Beautiful bike but forward controls are a no go for me.

[@janrickjethro]

Do Bristol motorcycles for the next review!

[@hogwylde]

Nice Casio Duro. ;) Love mine too!

[@BastosSandler]

i think the tank continues to small

[@cliffordjancelvalmoria4575]

Magkano kaya yan.....bibili ako

[@ronalynangelicasagayap5417]

next review bonneville t120

[@barrybarnes96]

I want to like this bike but think I'd take a new Harley Softail Slim or Streetbob over it.

[@AAA-official]

So look this nice bike❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@jesseonamotorcycle]

Man this is a nice bike

[@rencefriday2424]

Next time pls include kilometers per liters tsaka ung brakes kung anong brakes, shocks, etc

[@jululugz2893]

Sir, Nasa 1:25 po ata ung specs ng brakes and shocks po😊

[@keithswiercz3890]

The only thing I disagree on is where normal foot controls are...normal is forward controls

[@elouan111]

Benelli Leoncino 500 motorcycle for the next review

[@tombombadilofficial]

This is made for open, endless highways in the USA where you could literally ride for hours without having to put your feet down, the riding experience is wasted here where we have very different road conditions where traffic is stop and go before you even get to experience 15-25 minutes of Expressway before having to do toll stops again. Other open roads here are twisties and youre forced to ride slow because of your forward control riding position.

[@thailai7632]

So good

[@hoompaloompaa]

The only bike i need

[@misabelinsatomas6506]

Me gusta más la anterior¡

[@watsdamekaniks]

Let Caco ride!!! 😅😅😅

[@gilesgillett4599]

Good review except for the constant talking and music over the sound of the bike. You start the bike put a film of you riding it and overly all that with music...WHY? We want to hear the bike not drums and guitar strumming.

[@Gam3rG3n3SiS]

Jai hind !!! from Indian Salamat!!!

[@lemonsweet69]

that caco stray is 😂😂😂

[@cliffordjancelvalmoria4575]

Ganda talaga......

[@samboy3835]

3:18

[@dennisalon7868]

Windscreen…Minus pogi points! 🤣

[@davidpowell4735]

Thanks from an older guy

[@MrDavidsuits]

That is a lot of money for a bike in the Philippines

[@stevengodfrey891]

Get over yourself.... cruisers have forward controls... duh!

[@zfair37]

Let caco ride, or do a swap for just vid ep

[@shanew3293]

nice bike but front tire seems a bit too large

[@nomadpi1]

A 5'9" inch height is the wrong height to review a forward control cruiser. I'm 5 inches taller and a hundred pounds heavier. For me, this review is useless. Also a comfortable show-room OEM saddle isn't the saddle to review. Ride it all day, then tell us your back problems. The test for a saddle is to ride 10 hours a day for 10 days. Then are you able to walk straight up and no limp?

[@OlllOHD]

Foot peg position ruins this bike

[@bryantknapton668]

Hows the manny petty doing lol

[@DatsmyBoyOfficial]

pinaparinggan mo c caco ah...hamonin ka niya ng karera ng kotse

[@kilabot749]

Magandang idea yan ah, dapat gumawa sila ng car vs motorcycle drag race segment.
