The Biggest & Baddest Bonneville Modern Classic! Triumph Scrambler XE Goldline Review in Stunning HD

- Опубликовано: 17 окт 2022
- The Ol’ Man tests the 2022 Triumph Scrambler 1200 XE Bonneville Goldline Modern Classic Motorbike and gives the final verdict.
This beautiful Goldline special edition Bonneville motorcycle is a real head turner! The Ol' Man is even tempted but…
We look at the styling, engine, brakes, (forgot to mention the gears, which are perfect!), the suspension, seat, ride height, suitability for taller riders, the exhaust sound (which has an odd rattle), power, torque, usability, practicality, a few accessories, tyres and grip, on road and off-road, modes, tft, handlebars and steering, rideability, handling geometry and setup, petrol tank, fuel economy, build quality, price, and answer some subscribers questions, and eat some chips and a sausage.
This motorcycle review is beautifully filmed in some of the most stunning parts of Wales, near Pistyll Rhaeadr waterfall (the tallest in the UK), which you can see in the background of some shots, and with professional audio to capture the true sound of the motorcycle, and of course professional camera equipment as always.
Meanwhile, Darcy has been on a top secret mission while this was being filmed, now he has recovered from Covid, and all will be revealed very soon!

I'd say your taking motorcycle reviews to a whole new level.
A Classic - Hahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! We must demand thirty seven or more riding modes.
The truly bizarre thing is that your wit, dry humor and sarcasm is one of THE things that makes your and Mr. Darcy's channel enjoyable. So it's beyond me how people wouldn't get that. I look forward to every surly bit against overbearing UK licensing oversights and so on : )

These guys deserve a lot more attention, best motorcycle reviews on yt in my opinion.
Thanks buddy. Much appreciated 👍🏼👍🏼
One of the great things about watching the Old Man is how an apparent stereotype of the Big Bad Biker can show such good humor. I bet hes a great guy to have a beer with.
Nice real-world review that doesn't take itself too seriously which is appreciated. Noticed the camera work and editing has been taken to the next level. Lovely work, thank you.
Good see another bike review ,your reviews are allways honest ,and thorough with a good sense of humour too,keep up the good work, mick
I bought this 2 months ago and it’s amazing. It's an all-round great bike, and I'm very satisfied with both city and long-distance driving. I know the price is enough to buy several Royal Enfield, but the excellent appearance, quality, sound, everything makes me happy. I'm 6 feet tall and I can't get both feet on the ground completely, but I can stop with stability on one foot. It goes without saying that the exhaust heat has been significantly reduced since the Euro 5 model.
This bike can be said to be an adv bike in the shape of a scrambler. You can significantly increase your payload with the Unit Garage Pannier, and I am doing just that. The competitors of this bike is neither the RnineT nor the Ducati Scrambler. Comparison should be correct with africa twin, desert x, etc.
Sharp bike with a unique style that draws a lot of jealousy! It appears that the comments are clueless haters ! This is an athletic bike that commands a certain amount of attention when operating! I want one !!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I've watched virtually every Scrambler 1200 review on RUclips, and have come back to your XC/XE reviews multiple times. I will likely be picking up an XC next week. I very much appreciate your insight. Thanks.
actually cackled at the irony alert, after watching your videos for years, it still kills me the people that can't figure out the sarcasm. that was brilliant
Irony and humour - I loved this review!
"This is the Adventure Bike for cool People" best line ever, great review
ROFL The Ol' Man going through the modes! This is absolutely brilliant stuff! Showing the donkey, etc, lol.
Love your style, man.
Love The Ol' Man's one- liners.. "The adventure bike for cool people." Lol. Yup.
🤣 MotoBob! Thought you were going to say TMF again! Great review as always! Maybe the XC is for me.
Motobob's knickers 🤣 Loved the TMF joke as well.
Excellent review, btw
I just find these videos so amusing. 14:50 and the MOTOBOB dig 😂 Oh and I think there was a nice bike in there as well
Hilarious stuff those riding mode set ups!...the tank is reminiscent of early Huskys, I like it. Glad Darcy's recovered, looking forward to his upcoming content.
I love your style of making video and also the way you explain everything. Good luck man cheers .
This bike really does tick a lot of boxes, underrated all rounder of the future I think
Nice video! And a reminder of good night from the 2 Ronnies, the best comedy!
Great review, I appreciate your humour..I think you're right about buying bikes as well, I've been thinking the same.
_"Oh dear! Somebody go get Pops! He's stuck on the bike again, messin' wiff the 'lectrics!"_
Man, that's a bu'ful bike.
Man, that's a cool vid.
Thanks again,
S
Thanks enjoyed the review made me chuckle 😂👍🏻🏍️
loving the alerts keep them please your my go to channel for honest reviews
Thanks for posting this great review. You are fast becoming my favourite reviewer. Please keep up the irony alerts as they are great. Best wishes from Australia
Great Vid!! Lil bit O comedy mixed in too,, was hilarious. Oh and I like the bike aswell, ive become a massive Triumph fan.
I absolutely love this channel ! please keep up the humour and irony ! Love it !
Love the look of this bike. I’m seriously considering this over my GS. Tours are few and far between, now. This would suit my needs, with the odd, 2/3 day tour. Great review, matey.
Really refreshing video. Good sense of humour, willing to give good advice keeping it light.
Loved the mode bit, hilarious !!
My god I just spit out my tea when you started with the riding modes. It REALLY feels like that! You spend more time scrolling through the menu than riding. The only riding mode should be in your right hand. Lovely review
Love the Ol'Man reviews
Loved this review, must be my favorite to date! great stuff guys!
Love watching your videos
I love watching, always such a lot of laughs what a brilliant sense of humor top man keep em coming.
Good review…thorough and the added humor was great. Appreciate the view of you just sitting on the bike so we riders can size up the bike. I’m also 6’2” and often look silly on smaller bikes. I think you fit perfect so that is promising. Thanks again for the review.
I own the XE1200 Steve McQueen 2021
Excellent motorcycle
Is it totally worth it. I am back and forth on that one or the gold line. I think if I got the Mcqueen edition I would almost never go off road. I would get another bike for off road, but would LOVE the Mcqueen edition
Man that bike really fits you well. Love the videos!!!
Lovely review. Really enjoined your points and your delivery. Nice video.
Another great review boss, on bike filming is superb
Great review, I am looking for a new bike next year and this is on my list.
Beautiful machine. The ‘jumbo sausage moment’ !!! 😂 Keep up the good work. 🇬🇧👍
The size of the sausage is perfect!)))😂😂😂 Good job Old Man!!
Good review and I’m in total agreement regarding modes - too many. I’m a proponent of the KISS method - keep it simple stupid… BTW, enjoyed the Two Ronnies reference at the end of the video. Showing my age now. Cheers and safe riding. Dan. ✌️🏍🇨🇦
Great review, I got a 'non-goldline' one in Feb and currently think it's one of the best I've had (8 months later).
I'm about your size, maybe a bit 😬 fatter, and find the bike fits me well.
I have to disagree with you and most of the commenters, I LOVE the gold forks, they just shout out 'quality' to me, but that's OK, it's alright to have different opinions.
Fantastic bike though, I commend it to the house!
“I can flat foot anything”
Oh please let that encourage a plethora of memes….😂
Loving the irony! More please😆
Good gods that's a lovely scram... Too bad there are no dealerships for Triumph, Royal Enfield, BMW, or even Indian or Harley within 150 miles of me! LOL. Oh well. Thanks again for another awesome ride-review, the production quality and honesty in your vids makes them an automatic watch when they come out.
Thanks for a good, informative review of the bike.
I have one on order, and am very looking forward to taking delivery.
Happy Trails
Great enjoy your bike when it arrives 👍🏼
LMAO during your mode change attempts. I've loved this XE Goldline since it was introduced. Just haven't pulled the trigger so please stop tempting me with the reviews.
Nice bike. Great sound. High pipes are no small feature on a scrambler. We had a 1970 Honda 450 scrambler back in 73. I like 2 modes, stop and go. Clutch, brakes and throttle offer infinite control. I also agree with you re TFT.
Cool looking bike. Great review! Also love the humour 😂💖👍
The donkeys in the back are gold. Great review as always. 👍
Great review and the humor....dude, you could write comedy.
It fits you!!! Proper size bike ... Yippee! Totally agree with you over clocks and modes. Agree with the idea of lower pipes but isn't the frame different on one side to cater for the originals ... Isn't it cut out? Would be great to be able to do and get both side luggage ... I still camp and do bike rallies... As I age, I need to take more comforts ... It would then be a competent competitor for the adventure bikes you don't like.
Thank you for the laughs
We all need them
All of your insights
Would make that bike much cooler
And better over what they did
Take care my friend
Your presentation of of your profile sitting on the bike is something many other omit. Well done.
Hi big fella. I am Australian and I stand 6.3 and I am 57. I`ve been riding since I was 12. So I do relate to your videos.
I think that Triumph has been building their bikes in Thailand for quite a few years now. But soon they will be producing bikes from the Philippines as well. Cheers
What's MOTOBOB ever done to you?😂😂😂😂👙
What a gorgeous looking bike! You look good on it. Fantastic review.
I like bikes with the "NO MODE" function myself and what a bonus that the bike you tested comes with the MOTOBOB Knicker accessory 🤣
Superb quality video!
Great review as per usual. Not heard anyone mention the weird steering before. Wonder if it’s tyre pressures or incorrectly adjusted head bearing or something.
Cracking video again loving the warning ⚠️ info
Enjoyed you trying to set the modes 😂😂
Lovely bike and yes the forks should be black I agree in my opinion
Clocks yes keep it basic
Heh the Donkeys are beautiful can’t wait to see them !!
Gorgeous location and the Town
Regards Phil
Thanks for the review! Love the color and I totally agree about the clocks. If they could have put the set up from the T120 on it I wouldn’t have been disappointed. Llandovery is a beautiful back drop! Would love to come ride with you some time!!
Nice bike lovely review again keep up good work sir
Really nice video, and lovely county ridings.
I enjoy my ridings here in Majorca on my BMW K75 ✌✌✌
Perfect as usual! Thanks buddy
Thanks 😊
Great shots of the bike. This thing is absolutely stunning to my eyes. Seems like a great big guy bike, especially for city driving.
Best Scrambler review ever. Totally agree with wishing there was another option for the TFT but I’m going for it all the same. I’m expecting mine in just a few weeks and have a lot of backcountry exploration planned in British Columbia this riding season.
Great review informative and entertaining everyone knows they are your pants really 😀
Great bike and one of the best reviews!
Please get better soon!
My mate has a touno... It's tech-tastic... I would need one to one tuition just to start it.
You chaps are going to make loads of friends... Very funny.
It’s a do it all bike as it looks, very nice!
Great videos as usual!
agree with you buddy on all points, to have twin clocks and 3 modes would be such an improvement 👍 love the underseat storage items 🤣
I like watching your reviews, because at 6'4" I get some idea as to how I would look on these bikes.
Great video! The bike isn't my style but interesting none the less. Thats some beautiful countryside where you live with stunning views, perfect place for cruising around.
Happy riding ✌️
Nice bike. Excellent video!
Glad you added the 'Irony Warnings' for all the jackasses out there. .
Great 'vid' , loved the humour (Motobob's underwear was priceless) as for the XE ,great bike and a whole lot of fun to ride, all it needs to make it even better is a change of exhaust, a high rise front mudguard and a tail tidy (would also be better with twin analogue clocks)
Nice motorcycle but video is super. Keep doing this type of reviews. :)
I've n nothing to add except 🤣😂. I needed cheering up and this review has just done that. Ta a lot 😄
I saw that your "back up crew " the donkeys where there in the background making sure you said no innuendos that could cost you subscribers 😁.
Great review of the scrambler ........maybe i'll get one ......have to ask the missus .
Peace out ✌
Fantastic review young fella!
Thank you so much for the alerts, saves having to work them all out, or for other people missing them all together!
Do you know where Motobob shops??
Any time! Haha not sure where the knickers are from
Great review and some great belly laughs 😂
Loving the irony alert and oh my what a nice sausage
I do like the style you do the reviews. Absolutely a nice vid again. If i could i would subscribe once more.
Lol, I’m with you on the rider modes. Other than that great bike
Love the on-bike footage. What cam are you using for that?
Thanks buddy. DJI Action 2 👍🏼
Yay! Been waiting for this as I’m trying to decide between the two
Cruise control and heated grips on the XE
@@darren4534 Hi Darren, I put heated grips on my Thruxton RS yesterday and it was worth every penny. However I’m going with the XC
Heheh a very nice review monsieur, specially the time travel you did while figuring out the modes 😅, keep up those great honest reviews and I hope those Irony warnings will disappear by the time people understand cause in my opinion it ruins the joke a bit. Ride safe ✌🏼👍🏼
that’s a beautiful rattle 🥹
Dear Old Man, repeat viewer and despite being some years your junior, appreciator of your humour (thank god someone still has some). I know this isn’t a radio station and you don’t take requests etc. but we are the same height (am 6’3”). Would greatly appreciate some tips from a tall guy with a lot more experience on bikes than me on how to improve things with customisation. Hopefully this would be worth a short video. Thanks a lot either way for the work you both put in. Cheers.
Thanks buddy. We can certainly look into doing something like that 👍🏼
"the adventure bike for cool people" LOL Still heavier than my not cool KTM1290 ;-)
Another cool vid
I do really love the look of these and having ridden one I found the brakes and suspension so amazing. The engine is ok, but a bit underpowered and slightly sterile. If these came without Ride modes and without RBW, it would be at the top of my list for bikes to buy.
Best bike ever made 😎 👍👍👍
Love it, hilarious!
Didn't know Donkeys were into Triumph so much! Mind you they buggered off towards the end.
