Thank you,.... This buffoon's comment of... "It may not be as Iconic as a Harley Davidson" nearly put my 34" monitor existence in jeopardy,... In biking circles, we have a convenient description for people that display that kind of disrespect,... It begins with a 'T',... ends in a 'T' and has a WA in the middle. At the time this icon of design, style and performance came out,... HD Engineers were just figuring out how to make their bikes go around corners quickly without fear of imminent death. ** Don't get me wrong,... HD's are wonderful,.... If I could afford to buy one and insure it,... I'd be riding one already,... But damn,... We even named it after the Salt Flats in recognition of the importance of America in the automotive and motorcycle achievements ,.,..... Rant over.

I owned a CBR-600F and later a YZF-R6. Then spent 14 years in the wilderness, sans bike. Came back to it when I bought a lightly used Triumph Thruxton R. Excellent machine. I’ve had a blast with it. The handling has more capability than I have courage, which is to be preferred and there’s more than enough power on tap. The styling of the bike attracts the attention of older gentlemen and also children. Lol. All part of its charm, I suppose.

@TTS17 - the Token Square Hello, I've not done rides that long. I frequently commute 50/60 miles each way to work and it's fine for that. Without a fairing, the wind at 70mph can be tiresome and if you ride in the dark you will need to buy upgraded lights. The headlight is terrible. Other than the headlight, it's an amazing bike. I'm averaging 63mpg which would be important for touring.

I can confirm that my t120 is a good touring bike - as good as a naked bike can get. I bought it last December and already did 5000 km on it. Longest travel was 650 km from Switzerland across the Alps to Italy, with approx. 30% highway traveling. On the highway, the built-in cruise control comes in handy. For me (1.86m tall) the sweet spot is around 120 km/h. At that speed, wind pressure keeps me upright and the cruise control stabilizes the riding experience. 👍 As for suspension, I upgraded the rear shocks to Fox shocks, that allow easy adjustment of the inbound speed - that's particularly handy when riding with luggage. Hope this helps a bit.... 😊

It uses an H4 bulb, but low-beam is IMHO way too weak - max speed with this low-beam light output is around 70-80 km/h at night times. As a result, I ordered a modern LED headlight recently, but I haven't upgraded it yet. The weather is too sunny for a garage job... 😜 Oh....and I changed to Avon Spirit ST tires about 500 km ago - brilliant swap so far. The Bonny is much more nimble, stable around the corners and the tire feedback gives me way more confidence compared to the OEM Pirelli Phantoms. 👍

I test rode a 2023 Speed Twin 900 and fell in love immediately. However, I opted for the Scrambler 900 because I thought I would want to do some off-road riding. The scrambler is a great bike but didn't like how it handled off-road. Meanwhile, I couldn't stop thinking about the Speed Twin. I finally caved when the dealer said they would waive all the dealer fees with a trade-in for a 2024 Speed Twin. I couldn't be happier! It's the perfect city bike and great for longer rides along back roads here in the Midwest.

We tuned ours and are getting 103hp at the wheel as well as 85ft/bs... Tossed on some Ohlins shocks and a damper, K-Tech cartridges and springs up front and you can cruise in style or do a track day on it, and it won't have you visiting the chiropractor after each ride.

I’ve never ridden. Triumph, but have always liked the look. To me the best looking motorcycles in my lifetime were the 70’s Hondas. Back when the wheels were mostly the same size, the seats pretty much long and flat and mid controls. The triumph T120 has that classic late 60’s early 70’s looks. I’ve owned over 20 motorcycles of a different brands and styles, but the T 120 and the Speedmaster are very appealing and I need to ride one.

speedtwin /t 100 900 beside honda nc 750 s is one of not to much bikes which i prefer more than me sv 650 s in this case its cos more power down low and less gears 👌🏻

There are two new Triumphs coming with a 400 or 450 CC engine, it is part of the collaboration between Bajaj and Triumph in India with plans of exporting too.

i don't want a bonnie, i have it (Speed Twin 900), grabbed on february. Really fun, lightweight, lowsit bike. Farewell heavy Honda CBF, but how many travels we did all across Europe? You are always in my heart and soul and remembrance. Still love it, my beloved "Piccola". I hope to have the same fun with "Trofietta".

Be interested in reading informed opinions: Are the “higher compression engines” here engineered to handle the higher compression or are the same components just under more stress?

It's more a case that the low compression engine has over engineered components. They're all bomb proof

If anyone is intetested in these, its worth mentioning that you can average over 60mpg out of the t120. I commute on mine and its a very versatile bike

The key word there is "can". I ride my Scrambler 900 very aggressively on twisty mountain roads as my only transportation and have gotten like 48mpg average over the last year. I did ride much more conservatively over the winter. I bought snow tires made in Turkey and rode it through the biggest winter on record. At the base of the ski area just outside of town, where I work, we got over 700" at the base and are just shy of 900" at the summit. I think we'll make the 900" mark before summer finally arrives. So, versatile, yes.

@ilikelampshades: from my experience as a daily commuter in the cities and freeways of Southern California, that figure seems like a stretch. My riding style is fairly conservative and I'm getting 36-43 mpg average tank mileage.

@marekryszard If you're in california you're probably using the incorrect MPG. American gallons aren't accurate. Mine can do 60-70mpg all day if ridden carefully

"Incorreft MPG" What does that even mean? I'm stating what I see on the clocks on my Bonneville T120. There's two readings: . average tank MPG . Peak, real-time MPG Maybe you are readjng the clock data incorrectly.
