My motorcycling hobby began in 1964 at 18 and in all these years Triumph is still my picture of what a “real” motorcycle should look like! Presently own a 2020 T120 and prior a 2016 Thruxton R but the T100 and T120 still are my mind’s eye classics.

I bought a 2020 T120 Black used, it's like new, except with a couple of customizations like Hines exhaust, a small wind shield and handlebar end mirrors, with 5,000 miles on it and it's been a complete joy to ride. It's my second motorcycle after trading in a Yamaha SCR950 that was giving me problems. One of the best decisions I ever made.
Pretty much just captured the very crucial elements of why a lot of us ride and will never stop riding . It keeps me going mad just to be out on my own . Well done , that man
Awesome - nice wheelie and 180 - my pops had a 1960 Azure Blue - unreal how much time has passed - bike looks as good as ever. Iconic. Timeless. Nice vid - subbed.
Who needs a scrambler 1200 when the T120 can go offroad haha! Superb video! I have a massive soft spot for the T120. For me it was the T120 or Speed Twin 1200 and i went for the speed twin because it was that little more sporty. I never thought the T120 could be ridden like that, i thought the long wheel base would make it hard to wheelie but you made it look easy! I didn't see any bike abuse, just being enjoyed! Everyone rides differently and you defo ride very differently! As long as it's cleaned and well maintained ride it how you want! As long as you can afford things like fork seals etc 😉
Hi, I am very close to buying a brand new Bonneville T120. You stated that you rode 141,000 km on your T100 - I was just wondering if you experienced any particular problems with her over the period of ownership? What tends to bother me more than anything is the thought of my new pride and joy developing rust patches (I intend to ride her all year round). How did you keep your T100 in pristine condition? I would certainly appreciate any advice you could give me....from an experienced owners perspective. Also, if you fitted any upgrades, or after-market parts e.g. better shock absorbers, radiator guard etc.., then I would like to know your recommendations. Many thanks for your time. Take care, Neil.
I give my 1200 Thurxton heaps on dirt. Also have progressive springs. It handles corrugation and never freaks me out. Have a sump guard and cover over the radiator. Mud flying in will squash the bare fins. Best road tyres off road ive had are Michelin Pilots .

Very nice video and music, what is the title of the song? Very touching and impressive piano I also own a t120 and im very satisfied. Greetings from italy 🙋🏼
I haven’t noticed it. Depends where you are in the world, which season and how you’re riding the bike. Currently I’m riding it in autumn English weather where it isn’t getting hot enough for that. In California summer most bikes fans are on at the lights. Let me know if I can help with anything else!
Sorry, not particularly impressed. Nothing wrong with riding a bike hard on warm, dry summer's day when the tarmac's soft and the tires are nice and sticky, but to ride a machine like that on a cold, wet, filthy winter's day up dirt tracks, thro' muddy puddles and treating it like a speedway bike? Nope! The 'Henge and Cathedral were certainly befitting of the Wiltshire countyside but infinitely better on a warm, dry spring day when the sky is blue. Just sayin'.
Thank you for your time and leaving a comment. I appreciate your feedback. I come from a California Desert Racing relationship with Triumphs. Therefore this riding is quite relaxed in comparison to how fellow racers compete in the desert since the 1960s. The Bonneville has been a fantastic, durable and reliable bike over time and although they have a vintage aesthetic. These bikes are built to last. They are wonderful machines and I feel they should show their power from time to time. Hope that helps answer your question. Kindest Regards
@MrHenryWest awesome reply. I just find it a little jarring to watch. I love my T100, and as I will not be in a position to replace it, I am more gentle with it than I need to be. Cheers
@@markhenry192 I completely understand any wheelie is difficult to watch especially on such a beautiful bike. Your care won't go amiss with the longevity of your Triumph. Enjoy every second out there! Cheers!

@@michaelnolan2206 appreciate your kind words
Excellent T120 video! Loved every second and had to watch twice because I couldn’t get enough.
Thank you for the kind words and I appreciate your time. I wish you all the best!
Nice to see the Bonnie being ridden hard like this, how the originals would have ridden them.
Exactly what motorcycles are made for. To ride them like this guy.
Brilliantly filmed, showed and ridden at it's best in English countryside
nice shots and some good riding. Cheers
Great video 🫀.
@@radimjansa2909 thank you for your kind words
Blimey - and I get nervous when I see a puddle in the road. Very impressive 👏👏👏
Thanks for your kind words!

Excellent dear, my Bonnie rests all winter in Germany. A good clean and see you next time around. 😘
This video represents my quiet place. So peaceful. So simple. So profound. Yet the symphony. Thank you.
I appreciate your kind words and relate to your feelings, kindest regards
Very nicely done.
Love the shots. Lots of good taste! Thank you!

Awesome ride along. Love the Stealth Edition
She always deserves a video like yours…great job
Just bought one today. Great video mate, i enjoyed it a lot.
Great news. Enjoy every moment! Be safe out there!
What a video, definitely would want more of this, must have took a lot of time making these shots.
You Sir have dirtied a pure work of art! I do hope you give it bloody good clean! Superb production!
After 141,000 Km. On my 2017 T100 Ive just stepped up to the T120. These bikes are pure joy. Its like having a piece of a better time.

Beautiful scenerios, beautiful quality of video, thanks for your work, i appreciate
Absolutely brilliant video👌👌
Besides being a Master piece, THE Bonneville is a lovely, relaxing, and fun motorcycle, isn't it?
Thanks for sharing these amazing fall colours 😍
Beautiful, Henry.
Thank you Kind Sir!
Perfect edition ❤ All the best from Poland 🦁🎩👑
Gran video, espectacular!!!!!
Stunning.
Cheers.

Top gemacht. So fährt man Motorrad. So ist das Leben, genau nach meinen Geschmack.
BonnevilleT100 に乗っています。素晴らしいT120の動画作成ありがとうございます❤
Superb video, thank you.
Thanks for your time!
Please upload more of this! 👏👏
Will do!
Pěkné... moc pěkné :)
Beautiful video 🎉
Appreciate your kind words!
This is true freedom✌
Nice video mate. The bonnies are really strong and capable machines. They look amazinf even dirty
Agreed , even better when they’ve been wrestled around a little!
Great vid,maybe a 900 scrambler more appropriate,Good riding!!
He makes that T120 look smallish. My 2020 T120 is a huge machine to me. I'm 5' 10".
If you consider it large , try a 2018 Moto-Guzzi 1400 Eldorado 🙂
This makes me more relaxed about hammering my 2017 t120 about the lanes. I tend to baby mine and save that for my other less shiny bike
They are fantastically capable bikes. Most importantly, enjoy your time on them!
🤩👍
Great video. Be careful. But cool.
Appreciated. Thank you, I will, all the best!
Damn, have the same year but with a different tank, didn't think the T120 can handle that dirt and puddles.
I give my 1200 Thurxton heaps on dirt.
Also have progressive springs.
It handles corrugation and never freaks me out.
Have a sump guard and cover over the radiator. Mud flying in will squash the bare fins.
Best road tyres off road ive had are Michelin Pilots .
Sounds great! Enjoy!
I m expecting mine in March...
Very nice footage. Although I`d never do this to "her" (I anyway can`t) it's good to know "she" could.
Always a pleasure to see a true rider go back to the roots of motorcycling. 👍🏍️💨 Excellent quality video, hope to see more of this content. Subscribed 😉 btw what camera are you using to film?
I own t120 2023. I didn't know it was possible to do a wheelie with this bike ! I guess I need to improve my skill :D
Turn off the traction control :)
I enjoyed the quality, what camera did you use?
Well, if you going to spend hours cleaning it, you might as well make it worth your while. 😊
Nice to see a proper review! 😅
Action speaks louder than words
@@MrHenryWest Absolutely !
Scrambler 900 with Arrow exhaust is more fun imho, I’ve had both
Very nice video and music, what is the title of the song? Very touching and impressive piano
I also own a t120 and im very satisfied.
Greetings from italy 🙋🏼
'One careful lady owner - £8500ono'
Nice video ,great looking T120,and riding jacket is it a Belstaff Trialmaster
Yes Sir
Brixton going to launch its Cromwell 1200 in nearly half price of T120 in India ❤
Interstellar + T120 -> Heavenly.
Glad you agree!
What did you use to film? Special camera or phone?
It is very nice video. which camera are you using?
Can you please tell me the brand and model of your helmet?
Bell Moto 3
Is the fan always on at stops ? Ive read it turns on immediately on red lights

Cool video. How tall are you?
190cm. If that helps you gauge sizes. Shout if you have any other questions!
@ thx
i wanna do a wheelie on my t120
Why on a T not on a scrambler? 🤔
Why not, the scrambler is the obvious choice!
¿Por qué no te comprás una Husqvarna Norden, si te gusta tanto el barro y los saltos?
Awesome video!!! Subscribe!

OOooo makes me cringe watching this....but its your bike.
You clearly put a lot of effort into making this video but why abuse your motorcycle like that? After the wheelie I just stopped watching, shame.

If I had the off-road riding skill I would ride my T120 like that too! Great vid 👍
@rowland5442 I am sure you could if you tried hard enough!
