Greetings RUclipsrs!
Come along for the ride as I hop on the bike and hit the highways and byways on my motorcycles. I will also include maintenance and upgrades as well, specifically things that aren't always available from the community, and hopefully the videos will be as helpful to you as many others have been to me.
Originally from England I now permanently reside in the beautiful state of Wisconsin, I've been in WI since I came to the US in 1993 at the youthful age of 30, how time fly's. This channel was concieved in 2020 and eventually came to life January of 2021 after the Covid nightmare year before, lets make it a good one my friends and for many years to come... see you out there!
Cheers and ride well!

Triumph T120 - GoPro Hero 12 Fall Color Ride. Part two.
Love that GPZ750! Just picked up an 85 as well back in October. Funny 85 was the only year you could have it in any color as long as it’s black… Really wonderful bikes! Looking fwd to more content on this!
‘Upgrade’ to twin shock??? lol.
@@jamesosborne1228 I have been hearing a lot about this. Thanks for watching!
Nice recap of a much varied year.
Thanks Pete, best wishes for the season!
Merry Xmas and all the best for your semi-retirement. And Merry Xmas to your bikes also in semi-hibernation. The home and state of Harley Davidson.
Best wishes for the Christmas season to you and yours!
lol, 2 days later. Good on ya for making the most of the good weather.
Look after yourself Sir and the bike as well. Looks like you’re in an apartment. I’ve learnt quite a bit watching this vid. We don’t have this problem in NZ. Yes I have an under house garage. How long do you hibernate your bike for. My previous scooter use to lose air and I put heaps of soapy suds on it. After about 30 mins I found it was leaking on the rim in 2 places. Subsequently I got it beaded. Cheers Ak, NZ.
@johnmartin7158 thanks much for your kind words! The length of hibernation depends on Wisconsin winter! The last few years it's started late but gone well into April with only one or two chances to ride. This year winter came early, so I hope it leaves just a quick. Take care! 🍻
Very good video
Very nice sharing thank you
@pewpong900 Thank you for watching!
I'll be honest I've had in my bike for 6 years there is no difference at all I've be told by multiple times from well know performance shopes to take that Piece of s*** out of your bike and throw it away. After the third time I did what a Waste of money.I should have bought a power commander and had it dyno and tuned What wast of money leaned my lesson to
Thank's, looks easy, so this weekend😉👌👌
wish it had dual gauges
@andyb4678 I'd settle for a nicer trimmed single gauge, but a dual would be superb! Thanks for watching. 🍻
Eagle lights are the way to go. I done my bike all the way around blacked out tail light circus lights on the front blinkers it’s a circle that’s lit up an orange love Eagle lights.
It is the chattering noise that that motor makes that’s why it sounds like a sewing machine. I have a 2012 Road king 103. I feel the pain I didn’t put loud enough pipes on it. I put performance pipes on it. Definitely regretful situation. The best pipes for that motor are bam sticks Zombie baffles
Are you happy with windshield.?
@guymichaud6371 Yes, definitely! It's not too big to be a sail and spoil the look of the bike yet it still diverts a bit of the wind blast and keeps the look of the bike..imo! Thanks for watching! 🍻
Lovely video and beautiful bike.
@@metalofhonour thank you for watching! 🍻
Could I ask what windshield is on your bike
It's a Dart Marlin Windshield, I ordered direct from Dart. Thanks for watching! 🍻
Thank U for ur show.I’ve got 2 Triumphs Tiger 900GT PRO & Speed Twin 1200 My wife has a Honda Rebel 1100 which has a big fat front tire & it surprisingly handles good.My ? to U how does the Speedmaster handle with the fat front tire especially on Curve Rds. I’ve bn thinking about getting one Thank U👍👍
Great looking bike ( have the chrome edition too ) May I ask where you had the panniers from they look Brill !!
These are the Burly Brand Yoyager saddlebags and are available on Amazon. I can't post a link as I'm not an affiliate. Thanks for your comment and for watching! 🍻
Do you find the tank capacity too small?
@johnnypoprock1 It could have done with being a bit bigger for a, so called, cruiser in my opinion. The T120 has a 3.8 gallon tank and it should at least be equal. A long trip requires fairly frequent fuel stops, usually around 130 to 140 mile mark. Not horrendous but again, for a "cruiser"! 🍻
@@Guvnarides-WI2020 I've always wanted a Speedmaster but the tank is all that is holding me back. I love the way they handle and feel, but it's too little for long rights and too much for around town, So I've stuck with my Bonne 120.. Thank you for your videos.
Did you put a tail tidy on? If so which one?
@johnnypoprock1 That's the stock tail, actually. It's nice if you want to keep it looking lean but expensive if you want to a backrest/rack package. Thanks for watching! 🍻
Chrome polishing is top notch How do u polish and keep ot clean
@nandishcs I use Maguires chrome polish after a good hand-wash touch up with a spray wax as needed. Thanks for watching! 🍻
Lights look great on the machine ! 🦾💀
I have a 2022 Speedmaster that I added a Motodemic adaptive headlight to, huge difference over the stock headlight. I also now have a small touring batwing fairing along with Viking saddlebags . I also have 23 thousand miles on it with no problems!
I found a dealer here in Minnesota that has a Speedmaster on the floor and I least will get a chance to sit on one. Won't get too serious about buying until after the first of the year. I enjoy your channel!
Thanks very much for watching, i hope you get a chance to test ride one! 🍻
I enjoy your videos mostly because it's fun seeing our area from your perspective. You've ridden past my house at least once in a video. Funnily enough, I'm also English and moved here in the 90s. Just so you know, Leinenkugel's isn't going out of business, but they are closing the original brewery in Chippewa Falls, which is sad. They will still be brewing the beers in Milwaukee. Cheers Guvna
Thanks for the clarification on Leinenkugel's I believe Miller are keeping their Summer Shandy in Production and I hope others too! Nice to meet a fellow Englishman in Wisconsin, it's a beautiful state! Thank you for watching and nice to hear from you. Cheers! Mick
Hello Guvna. Riding season far from over here in Alabama; 75F/24C today. Enjoyed your chat and would like to see more pics of your Speed master. Cheers
@ColSnders Thank you for watching and for your comment, I might take a ride and put a slide show video together as its a nice day. We've been fortunate to have a mild Fall so we will hopefully get a few more good riding days in yet. Enjoy that beautiful riding weather! Cheers, Mick.
75 and humid. No thanks lol
I’m glad you’re loving your speed master. I’ve still got my Matt Black T120 gold line and XMax scooter. Summertime in NZ now, so they’ll be more bikes on the road. Do you ever think you’ll ever go back to the UK. Cheers.
@johnmartin7158 That T120 Black G/Line really is a beautiful bike, i wish I could have kept both!! I do enjoy visiting the UK and miss my family and friends but I've been in the US for 30 years and have family and grandchildren here, so it would be very hard to leave. It makes the visits extra special! Thanks for watching and ride well. Cheers, Mick
I have a 2023 Chrome as well. I love it - a supersonic armchair! Yes, the horn is silly, so I fitted a Sound Bomb which is a straight swap and a big improvement. I got heated grips, a rad protector, and power socket fitted by the dealer for free (I bought mine new). I did fit those mirrors you have but have gone back to standard mirrors as they work well and look better IMO. Yes, the pipes are awesome. I don't know how they got it through Euro 4 but I'm glad they did. I don't ride motorways these days so have not fitted a screen, I have fitted SW Motech soft panniers and as I don't carry a pillion I have removed the pillion seat and fitted the Triumph 'finisher' instead. I like the 'Vincentesque' single clock, but I agree a stainless ring round the dial would be good. I also fitted a front fender extender to keep some of the muck off the rad and engine. Vince
@gzk6nk Vince, thanks for watching and sharing what you've done to yours. I would have gone with heated grips but I couldn't find them in brown, which is my color, for the moment at least. Ride well! Mick
For my ‘24 Speedmaster, I wash with the engine casings with MUC OFF bike cleaner, rinse off, then spray with GT85 or ACF50 and leave it for an hour or so, them wipe off and leave. Have done 2,200 miles so far and no spotting on the alloy cases.
Thanks for the tips! 🍻
What kind of bags do you have on that bike?
@daviddejong187 The Burly Brand Voyager saddlebags. They are currently available on Amazon, a bit pricey but definitely good value for money IMO!
I bought a leftover ‘22 Speedmaster about a year and a half ago. Most of my complaints are the same as yours. The cases show water marks, apply elbow grease and polish as necessary. The fuel gauge is pessimistic. It shows empty but I can only get a shade over two and a half gallons into the tank and frankly I’m fine with that. I’m not a fan of pushing my bike down a highway looking for the next gas station. Here in NC, the metal trim inside the speedo reflects sunlight right into my eyes if I look down. I had thought that the twin clocks of the Bonneville would have been a better choice but I’ve grown to accept the single clock. Like yours, the headlight on mine was good for illuminating the trees when it left the dealership and it is fiddly to adjust. My biggest complaint is the dealership isn’t close by and it’s primarily an Indian dealer with Triumph as a sideline.
@@gwynnromano5881 Thanks for your comments. If Triumph would produce a trim ring similar to the clocks on the T120 I'd be a happy boy!! Cheers and thanks for watching. 🍻
Hey Guvna, I have a Harley and a few old Enfields. I got a chance to test ride bike and obviously enjoyed the smoothness and relaxed feeling. Definitely getting ready to pull the trigger on one. I agreed the two tone paint makes for a better look.
@@waffleridersmoto4191 I am sure you wouldn't be disappointed. The issues I mentioned are all fairly minor, it really is a cracking motorbike! Cheers and thanks for watching. 🍻
Rear fender is steel , I put a magnet to it to see!
Lol I did after I did the video too! Thanks for checking! 🍻
Did you have any issus reinstalling the right foot peg? Mine wont fit with the exhaust being straight down
I'm almost 76 from Minnesota and I just found your channel and this video. I bought my first motorcycle when I was 15 and my first Triumph in 1969 when I was stationed at Ft Bragg, NC. That bike was followed up by a couple of more Triumphs when I got out of the service. Then came the Harleys but I still have some Triumph blood running through my veins. I sold my last Harley 2 years ago due to a sudden injury that I didn't think I would recover from but I did recover and actually I'm better than ever now. Now I've discovered this Speedmaster and it looks like a perfect bike for me! Low center of gravity? Now that's a refreshing thought isn't it. And the fact that it's t least 250-300 lbs lighter than the Harleys doesn't hurt either. i am now seriously thinking about picking one of these bikes up. Thanks for the video
@daviddejong187 Thanks for sharing your story, it's always nice to see the human side of RUclips! I can't say enough good things about the Speedmaster and as much as I like our Ultra Limited, the Triumph takes first place in daily bike riding! Thanks for watching, take care! 🍻 Mick.
Great video mate
@stephenconnolly602 Thanks, and thanks for watching! 🍻
Good review, I can't believe they had a chrome as a demo. I use turtle wax graphene flex wax spray on my aluminum. No spots so far. We have the same amount of subs! 😂😂 Cheers buddy
@Fourwedge I was very surprised myself! I bought it with 89 miles on it. Thanks for the Turtle Wax tip and nice Bonne BTW! Cheers! 🍻
I got goldline version, stunning bikes
Agree with everything u said Don't like horn Stock mirror And no USB point. I hate the back mono shock might have to upgrade to ohlins. I weigh 220 pounds. i got 152 miles on full tank I was carrying a fuel can to find this.. But i observed power drops after 120 miles.
Thanks for the feedback, interesting that you're looking to change the shock out. I'd be interested to hear how it goes. Cheers! 🍻
@Guvnarides-WI2020 in future cannot afford it now.
12:20 Wash with baby shampoo. We ride the same motorcycle
Thanks for the tip! 🍻
Wife and I just there for the 2024 Fall Art Tour. Great art. Great and super nice people. Marvelous yellow stone buildings and other old timey buildings. Lots of good and friendly family owned places to eat. In the driftless area of Wisconsin. Google it. The terrain is up and down with windy roads (great for bikers), scenic views every which way. Numerous other small towns to explore in the area. Spring Green, Dodgeville, Darlington, and etc., but Mineral Point is the Crown Jewel of the Driftless area. The art tour in October is their busiest time of year, but visiting Mineral Point any time is worth the trip. Many videos on RUclips. You’ll need 2-4 days to roam around and really get the feel of the city and surrounding countryside. Oops. Almost forgot. New Glarus Brewery and New Glarus not too far away.
I can just admire the bike for ever
Are u going to install dresser bar for protection
They are on my list to put on during winter. 👍🍻
My apologies, I misspelled Lions Park in the video.
Were did you get the saddle bags
@TonyMcNabb I believe it was Amazon. If you go there and type in Burly Brand Voyager black saddlebags they should come up. Sorry I'm not sure how to post direct links here yet! I got them based on a review by RUclipsr Stuart Fillingham. 👍🍻
