Everyone is saying, that i should buy a smaller bike around 400-600cc as my first bike. Except my dad. His first bike was a Yamaha bulldog. So, it's nice that someone else is saying the same thing.

Question... how smooth are the engines. Im used to 4 cylinders and love a T120 i saw today... the salesman said the engine is like butter. I used to have a ducati L-twin and struggled with the vibrations

What are those tan gloves? Love them. And also… thanks for the comparison video. Love both these bikes.

is the panda mic in the helmet?

I dig that cowboy-vibe of these.

I just bought a speed twin but I was in doubt with the t120 (and still I am) cause they are really great bikes. I ended up with the ST mainly because of the agility and riding style, more responsive, more aligned with body movements and the overall agility of the bike. Torque is there for both bikes, I agree there is no significant difference on that (unless you really push them hard, and there it’s where the sporty soul of the speed twin shines compared to the t120, even though it’s visible from the 4000rpm). Sometimes I still feel like I should have picked the t120 cause I’m 180cm tall and I think that the ST it’s a bit small for me compared to the t120, but that’s maybe just a bias. The t120 is heavier and in the city I could feel it, that was also something that made the difference to me. Nice video anyway and great triumph bikes!

The scenery was amazing where was this video taken?

Did you just tap on your ass and brushed your hair?

Thanks for the enthusiastic viseo, inspiring. Helpful tomtom stuff , plan a thrill os hood but not too cirvy othewose its a cycle route! I think tomtom have stopped the customer rides, or mydrive seems to have gone, the site was amazing so im.sad its gone. Do u know any different?

Nice video guys, thanks for that. On holiday in Sweden last week and I went into a Triumph dealer because I was interested in having a closer look at the ST. Saw one and it was lovely but then saw a T120 black with some tasty upgrades. The new owner was in there and he actually tipped me off about this channel. 🙂 Long story short, the T120 caught my eye and your video has just convinced me that this is the bike for me. Cheers from a Brit, living in Germany who likes to holiday in Scandinavia!

Starter bike should be what you feel like you can handle and then proving yourself right. To assume everyone is on the same level would be wrong. T120 is the perfect starter bike, if thats your confidence levels. I love that for you bro ❤

Why not a T100 for a beginner? 😜

What’s the overall cost of ownership Mpg? As just looking at one as my only bike for commuting and weekend get always Does it generate much engine heat?

Very dapper - so did you win the best dressed competition?

Who went to this years DGR??? - Check out the website to donate to a great cause. Also get yourself lined up for next years, we'll be doing this special event for the foreseeable future

Nice video. Wonderful place!

No, this not a tent it is little better than a bivvy bag. You cannot sit up, so cannot prepare food, or eat, so it is a heavy crash bag. So you out in the elements on you bike all the time, except for sleeping, that makes life so tough. There are plenty of lighter tents that are tents.

Great video guys. How you finding the x pipe on the speed twin now you have done a few miles. Do you find it too loud? I’m thinking of getting my speed twin done with my after market exhaust. Keep up with the great videos guys. 👍

WE’RE BACK! Passion for biking has been reignited. Who else has had to shake things in order to spark a new lease of life for biking??

Great video. I enjoy seeing a different type of scenery than I see in the Southwest US. I have a question for James. You mentioned the TomTom you use. I have found that using Google Maps on my iPhone is not working out that well. The batteries are just about done at the end of 4 or 5 hours and also Google Maps routes that you create on a desktop do not transfer to a mobile device correctly if you have dragged the route when planning the trip to avoid a place. So.... How do you create your routes on the TomTom, or do you just set a destination and do what TomTom says? How long do the batteries last, or do you have a feed on your bike? P.S. -- You contributed to my decision to get a Speed Twin 1200 as my first bike this January. I have a bit more than 3,000 miles on it now and it is great. It needs a wind screen since we do so much high-speed driving out here, it also needs cruise control and some other features that I can't add to it. But overall a great bike. Mine is a 2023 - bright red like yours.

Good to see you back out and making videos. Always enjoyed your content - lovely shiny tank on the Speed Twin!!!

Love this vid. Motorbiking culture and comeradery. This is what's missing from my life. I'm booking my CBT right now.

Great video lads, looked like a gem of a road

That was great. How much money to use the Stones song?😂. You should have named this video Hung Pony.

Thoroughly enjoyed the trip to Cotswolds with James and Alex ,loved the wild horses and the great banter as always .Thank you guys 🏍️🐎😘

I was at the strines only on Sunday 😂

I really like the t120 but tubed tires are the only reason that I am thinking of going with the speed twin 1200😅

Absolutely awesome trip, gents, and I like how you documented it. I came across you today looking at Wingman Of The Road reviews and decided to keep watching. I’ve been to a number of the places you visited but still yet to do north of Ullapool and over the top. I’m from the northeast about 45 mins east of Inverness and same north of the Cairngorms, so no excuse really. 😂 I’d definitely recommend the northeast corner as well if you get back up here. Braemar, Ballater and the like - some lovely roads. See you on the road some day. Ride safe.

good to see you got it to a good 100kmh :)

great video fellas. very based and informative knowledge

Thanks for the great video! This is totally off topic, but what make / model is that leather jacket you're wearing in the video? Looks nice and I like the zippered forearm vents.

Hi gents just a add on .I subscribe from your nc500 videos. Which were brilliant I really enjoyed your take on that adventure. Thank you old dave

Evening young gents . I've been subscribed for a while now. Don't often comment on videos I enjoy. BUT this one had to be done/. I have FULL respect to grandad Me being 67 years old now retired. Don't ride .Don't have a channel. But totally relate to grandad life. Thank you gentleman. This was one of your best .looking forward to your adventures moving forward in 2024...thank you again young sir's...old dave. (From Sunderland. )

Dear bikers, question, which seat is the one on the Bonnie T120? it looks comfortable. Please mark and I will see if it is available in Germany. Tk u in advance. CMD from Germany.

A537 is the road past c&f

Recently brought the rider 550 and learnt a few things from thus video. Alot ice watched woffle too much about it so I loose the concentration. You guys are fab. Be nice to know what media your using so you can record your audio on your gopro. I have a mod thing for my gp10 but not sure how to hook it up to my cardo bold to chat on my gopro as don't fancy lots of wires off my helmet. Ant suggestions

Come on. 😮boys. Don't forget us girls. 😊

I have a ninja 1000sx 2020 at the moment, great bike blah blah, but zero character, I thinking of the T120

Could the Street twin be made to look and feel like a Bonneville?

Can you have straight exhaust put on the Speed Twin? I like that classic look.

I rode a Bonny in the 1960s. Australia. Had a few bikes since. Nothing compares. Retired now and would like to return to riding. Seeing the new Bonneville T120 with the modern touches is just awesome and gladdens my heart. (But the price does other things to my nervous system.) I sat on one at a dealers recently and started it up. I felt absolutely at home. As if I'd never been off it. It fitted like a glove. Thanks for the video. These POV videos looking over the bars at the road, and picking a line with the clocks right there, is just magic. Add the sound of that wonderful motor and...well. You are right about seeing yourself in the shop windows. It's sort of funny, but being on a Bonneville is kind of who I am. Just the thought of it brings some inner peace. Even when I don't own one. Is that crackers? I used to take my then girlfriend out on it back then. We're still married.

I bought a new Thruxton R in 2016. I have other bikes but find the riding position of the Thruxton best for my aging 69 year old back. I fitted the Triumph quick release panniers and have done a lot of touring with the bike. Why not have a light sporty bike with great suspension when riding hard day in and day out? I also fitted the factory fairing which works very well, even in strong crosswinds. Longest tour so far 4500 kms. Longest single day 1100 kms from Twin Butte , Alberta to Vancouver BC in one long day. I was still able to walk afterward!

The bench seat and vintage styling is drawing me to this bike. Your paying 10,000 but were being charged 13,000 here in the states.The Kawasaki 900 that people are comparing this to is available but just seems thrown together without alot of attention to detail. It's just fast. And in no way, shape, or form compares to the T120. It's just simply a gorgeous bike.

Bought a 1970 BSA off a customer. Will ride that this summer but I've wanted a T120 for awhile.

Which bike grounds out first?

I have the Toucan and I love how comfortable it is... It's heavy but since I am driving a GS doesn't really matter that much, unless you'll do off-road. It's a very good back rest actually...

Speed Twin....oil leaking piece of crap. How do I know? I have one (2019). In the shop for 3rd time. Once for oil pump and twice for stator wire leak. Should have stuck with a metric bike, but noooo...I wanted a European Triumph, as in Europeeeeing oil all over the damn place!

The swags are better. Those things are made in China with cheap materials. Save your money and buy a quality Australian swag. These are not 2 man tents if you want to sleep

Nice vid guys, keep biking

What is the tail tidy on the Bonnie?
