I own a Triumph and used to love Triumph as a company but they stopped innovating long time ago, instead they promote and focus on bling & colours. These bikes deserve more.
That’s ridiculous- they absolutely innovate: the scrambler, the new speed triple RR, the street triple RS, and now pushing into dual sport and dirt bikes - the quality is the best in the business
One of the reasons the emission regs. make bikes jerky is the low inertia of engine parts compared to car engines so reducing the inertia in the engine and the air injection system combined sounds like a disaster.
If they would have address these problems and fixed these problems, I'd be down at my dealer purchasing one right now. But how can I trust a company who will not stand behind their product, we all know that companies can have design flaws. All we ask is that a company recognizes a design flaw and fixes it so we can feel confident. Ignoring the problem does not make it go away.
@@markkulyas2418 I totally agree that is why I sold my 2017 T120. Triumph issued a TSB for the shifter issue with a part number but refuse to recognize there is problem. After being a Triumph rider for 45 years it was time to say goodby for good.
@@marcbranchaud4408 I called my local Triumph dealership and ask them if there was a TSB issued on these bikes, they had no clue what I was talking about. I also tried to have a conversation with the service manager about the transmission problems being reported on RUclips and his response was that they never heard of these problems, but he did say their Transmissions are bulletproof. Even my local Triumph dealerships are going to pretend that there isn't a problem. What I want to know as a consumer from Triumph is what year bikes are affected and what year bikes are safe to buy, or did they even fix the problem,
@@markkulyas2418 if there wasn’t a problem why would they have a replacement kit for the gear selector mechanism issued under technical bulletin 197 09.2019
Did anyone notice that they traded cruise control for the heated grips? I´d rather go with the old model. Who needs cruise control anyways? I´m disappointed. I´ll keep my 2020 bobber black then.
In the guise of a hope I posted an opinion a few days ago. Sadly, this reveal is a tad disappointing. However, my point is validated at the 2:00 mark when the iconic T120 of the sixties is referenced. It’s easy to see what makes that bike so aesthetically sound is how Triumph (and many bikes of the era) eliminated or hid the tank’s pinch weld. Take a look at that bike’s lines, and then look at the tank on the present T120’s - doesn’t the cheap to produce pinch-weld make them look like a tin toy? Just me? I think not . . .
You sir hit the nail right on the head, that pinched seem tank ruins the entire look of the bike and makes it look so cheap. I can't believe the Triumphs Engineers can't see that.
My new Bonny 1200 is a superb looking bike with many compliments from people when I’m out on it, the finish on it is second to none, but come on Triumph why the bloody hell have you done away with the centre stand how tight can you get, it’s a pain in the arse to oil the chain without it, I’ve now had to shelve out £220 to get one fitted, it’s a retro bike and so should have one as standard especially as the bike is a bit on top price wise in the first place.
After reviewing the new T120 updates, I realized the real reason why the bike is 15lbs lighter. They added cruise as standard, but made the heated grips optional. The center stand is gone too, it's now an optional accessory and so is the once standard equipment chrome grab rail. Price has gone up as well. What a disappointment. So glad I bought my 2020 Diamond Edition when I did.
Great! Is just bought my 2016 Street Twin and I’m in love. Triumph made a really good job! Great bikes, really easy to ride and very fun to customize. Good to see how they still improving this bikes, making it better without loosing the classic style.
Hey official triumph spokesman - what are those boots?? They look bomb! I want em.. great bikes- I am totally satisfied and in love with my ‘18 Speedmaster - it was a spontaneous buy after being lured in by a Bobber - can’t wait till it warms up to get riding again!
Just one way to keep the price down and affordable, and they know they will make double the profit on selling you all the accessories that should have came with the bike after the sale.
I think Speed twin is from Thruxton family, not exactly Boneville family. The T120 motor is stronger, the chassis is different, the tires, suspension...
Triumph how can I purchase one of your bikes when your customer service stinks, your company refuses to address the down shifting transmission problems many Triumph owners have experienced and posted on you tube. If you can't stand behind your product how do you expect somebody to feel confident in buying your product. So Triumph, your proud that you have kept one British employee pinstriping tanks and fired thousands of British workers and move your production to Thailand. You must be so proud to keep the Heritage alive.
trueish... you could have made a better street cup starting with a street twin than triumph did with the cup. i did start my build with the cup because i got a good deal on it... but there is alot to do. i had the silver one with the ugly golden stripe on the rims and the unsexy paint job. after the street twin conversion buld i can say i should have started with a street twin, moneywise :)
Love the bikes i have owned an explorer, tiger and speedmaster . My only reservation is the amount Triumph charge for accessories. Also why is a comfort seat an accessory!!!
Goes to demonstrate what a styling masterpiece the 1960s Triumphs really are...because every year, Triumph makes the new bikes look more and more like the originals.
The show-stopper for me with modern Bonnie is the 270 degree crank. Sounds nice but just like a 90 degree V-twin, which shares the same firing sequence. If you're pedalling heritage then you need the right sound. Traditional British twins and the earlier Hinckley Bonnies were 360 degree phased, lumpy but with that gorgeous smooth parallel twin sound. It was the same with Laverda and even the much-respected Yamaha XS650.
Some lessons learned for the Bobber Black....there is now the same tank volume than the Speedmaster and they changed the front cartridge.... Some improvements.... at least. :-)
Felicidades, gran adquisición, yo tengo la continental y es una chulada, efectivamente es pesada pero ese peso te da un gran aplomo cuando vas en carretera a alta velocidad, y como bien lo dices, en los caminos todo mundo te abre paso como pasa con las motos grandes, no hay semáforo en el que todos se quedan apreciando tu máquina.
great upgrade of most of "modern classics" motorcycles. suprised to see that other ones (Street Scrambler, Scrambler, Speed Twin,...) not (yet ?) concerned by this upgrade.
Triumph, Plz bring back the Daytona 675r. That handling, the look, the specs. Those headlights, oooooh. It was the perfect motorcycle. even if all you do is put fairings on the street triple I'll take it, and you'll probably make millions.
Why not a Thunderbird LT 😭? Have been waiting for Triumph Thunderbird for so long years but still more waiting..! Hope the Bonneville this year would look bigger than RE Interceptor 650😁😉
some very minor updates (happy about brembos on the t100), maybe an article with pictures would have saved you and us quite some time for the same result ;)
So if I understand this correctly, it would appear that Triumph have dropped the original Bobber (single front disc & 19 inch wheel) completely from the range and replaced it with a Bobber Black that they've fitted a Speedmaster tank to ?
@@irfanabdulwahid8594 If you mean a 2017 Bobber would be worth more now then in theory you would be correct. However, the market place is awash with used Bobbers and the supply is outstripping the demand

Купил себе в конце прошлого сезона Scrambler. Минимум год можно будет покататься, до обновления - это хорошо :) Speedmaster и Bobber великолепны. Похоже, что линейка Bonneville практически оптимальна и обновления в ней будут небольшими эволюционными без добавления чего-то прям совсем нового - каждый год по какой-нибудь новой примочке, желательно с возможностью апгрейда предыдущих поколений.

Street Twin over on my channel, now! More Bonnevilles coming T100 this Sunday and T120 later in July.
I was hoping for a Speed Twin R with the suspension, wheels & brakes from the Thruxton TFC but done all in black ... Oh well. Never mind !

Great idea
Speed twin, Thruxton are not from Bonneville family
