Who could as for more. Kawasaki Z900RS soaks it up and the Honda Rebel takes it in its stride, apart from when it ejects its own top box and almost takes me out!! All shot using the Insta 360 oneX2.

    I enjoyed your review of the bike. This is Allen from Dallas, Texas, U.S.A., writing in late July, 2024. I picked up my new Scrambler 1200xe about two months ago, and have been riding it pretty frequently since then. The weather here has been hot, but bearable. The hot exhaust on the bike is certainly a bother in this weather, but, actually not too bad. I still have the stock exhaust, and I like how quiet it is. I’d certainly be inclined to mount that Vance & Hines exhaust on my bike, as the de-cat would probably make it a bit cooler. It doesn’t seem very loud from the audio of your review. I’m still waiting for back-ordered accessories for my bike, two plus months in. Happy Trails!

    This bike is a queen between this classic style off road big bikes. She’s a Beauty! Full of character but has the main collection of modern gadgets that we find on the top class bikes. I see it as a bike to ride mostly on solo, but it can handle a passenger in the back and some luggage on the left side. It’s pleasant to ride on every kind of road. I’ve ridden for two years a BMW r nine. It’s well known that it is a naked bike too, and on highways never felt too much the disadvantage of the wind blast (on this type of bike unconsciously, we tend to ride on moderate speeds, because the wind becomes an issue), once noted the limits of comfort being defied, the rider adapts and naturally brings down the speed to those patterns where we feel comfortable. The bike does everything but the longer rides on highways it’s not the ideal route for a bike like this, if we want to travel fast. The heat that comes from the exhaust is the price we must pay for the privilege of riding a bike that is a queen amongst a realm of very dull and all alike bikes that fulfill our roads. It’s like going out on a sharp suite and being annoyed by the tie we’ve got to wear. It’s part of the aesthetic and reputation of a bike that carries a strong sign of tradition and heritage in its design concept. It’s not only another common bike. It’s art what we are riding and not just another bike. It’s living tribute to a type of machine that became famous in the past and for me that’s a value to understand and to savor. That’s why I think this Bonneville style of bikes that Triumph proudly keeps manufacturing are not to compare with the rest of the bikes we have in the present, and still they ride well and they’re are modern enough to behave and prove itself as capable alternatives on the Market. That’s an achievement. Man, this bike is a keeper! 👌🏻

    G'day mate. I bought the SE model for my 65th recently, and along with the RE 650 Interceptor, I can honestly say that I am Finally content with the bikes I have in my garage. I had the ZI in '76 (second hand), and fell in love with road bikes from that year on. Cannot recall how many bikes I have previously owned in the last 50 years, but now I have the best of both worlds at my finger tips. Sedate humming along on the RE, and somewhat more spirited "playtime" on the RS. First time on your channel brother, and I appreciate your style. Great review, pity it was so cold and you couldn't really open her up, but I believe you felt the absolutely honest enjoyment of riding this brilliant back to basics bike. Kudo's to Kwaka for bringing the true sense of controlling the bike with your wrist and brain, and not a bloody computer! Greetings from Oz, and subcribed. Cheers mate.

    nicely done sir! I have the Z650RS as I dont need 900cc.... I think the 900 looks and sounds amazing and I wish Kawasaki had given the 650 the same treatment in the looks department. If I could have multiple bikes just like TMF that you mentioned, I would definitely have the 900, for sure

      There's actually (2) rider modes, if we're being literal lol.. (1) full traction control AND wheelie control turned on, and then there's (1) mode dedicated for RAIN, and the last mode is all of those things turned OFF. So, three modes lol.

    The sounds of this engine is music to my ears. If I were to buy it I'd ignore any cons only for the sound.

    I enjoy watching reviews on this bike, it's very handsome. Brings back memories, first thing I noticed was the time when seats were actually comfortable. The styling, right down to the period accurate font on the badges, takes me back. Yesterday was the same temperature here in Colorado, full face helmet, chin skirt and a balaclava keeps the face warm 👍

    Great review. I got mine in '21, the first new bike I'd purchased since my GPZ900R (A2) in '86! It really is something very special .. and it had to be to get me back on 2 wheels after a long time away. I used to say that as a man of a certain age it gives me everything I need. But now I feel like I want ... 'more' (don't we always?), and am considering trading it in for a Ninja 1000SX. I now live in Missouri where there are still wide open spaces, very few cops and speed cameras seemingly don't exist.

    I have a yellow ball R/S and I took it to France , went all around Normandy and it was amazing, my advice is buy one you won’t be disappointed. Get a tank bag and rucksack your done 👍
