I am from the UK and the owner of a T120 and it’s the best all rounder that I have ever owned. I traded in a Speedmaster for this one as I disliked the suspension on the cruiser. As the pegs were forward it was impossible for me lift my backside to avoid looming jolts from pot-holes. Now I have the T120 I use it for country rambles as well as touring with canvas saddlebags - and no back problems!
Thanks for your comment. I get what you're saying about your back taking the impact, the T120 is much better at that, as well as for 2-UP. That seems to be an issue for most cruisers, I have found the Indian Motorcycles to have that issue as well. Thanks for sharing, ride safe.
I own a 22 Speedmaster, and while I love my bike, I am constantly curious about the T120. I added a pair of Viking bags, and it has been wonderful for longer trips. The suspension is the one thing I don't enjoy about the SM. I always knew I would need a 2nd bike, but ended up buying a z900rs cafe.
Very true, I think many of us feel we always need a second bike. There is a difference between a long-trip travel two-lane bike, and an interstate long distance machine. For the latter, I would prefer something much more confident and capable, hence another bike! :) If there is only one bike,, I think the T120 is a strong contender. Thanks again, ride safe!
