I have a 20' Speed Twin and I disagree on the rear shocks. Triumph thought "Retro" was 1960's tech. Being able to balance the bike for the riders weight dose help a lot. Several after market shocks that can be swapped out from budget to high end and any of those is better than the budget stock shocks. I describe the riding position as upright, but a slight tilt forward. It is a nice position at higher speeds for wind blast, but it keeps the pressure off your wrists and you can look around easy.
Yup fair enough, they are by no means the best stock shocks around! Easily swapped out though. All in all I thought felt like a pretty premium bike 👍
Very good to watch your bike reviews again Red after a busy absence. I enjoy the strong sense of connection and pleasure you have for biking through that beautiful countryside and of course I learn a lot about each bike you’re riding. There are many good people reviewing bikes but there’s something quite viscerally satisfying about your appraisal which gives us a fuller sense of how each bike feels to ride and thus which bike might suit our preferences. Thank you❤
Hi thanks so much I really appreciate that 🙌 So glad you enjoy the videos and hope you continue to do so. All the best to you
I think Triumph produces the best looking and well built retro motorcycles. Very clean looking. Excellent quality and feel when riding 👍. I like The extra weight on the bikes. I’m riding not racing ! Great review
Thanks Brian I appreciate it and glad you liked the review 👍 I think overall I have to agree, Triumph do make the best retro bikes. However I think the Kawasaki Z900RS may take the win over the Speed Twin in personal opinion!
Another first class vlog Angus , no matter what you are reviewing it's always worth the time to relax and enjoy . Well done !!!
Hi John, thanks so much I really do appreciate that 😁 Great to hear and so pleased you enjoyed the video. Cheers
Traded my 22 Yamaha Tracer 9GT and Tricity 300 for an extra kitted 23 Triumph Speed Twin 1200 just two days ago. Do I love it? Heck yeah!!!
The sound is breathtaking and mid range torque exhilarating!!! ❤️
👍 A good trade, such cool bikes. Enjoy
I am a fan of this bike and the Scrambler 1200. Big twin = torque, and it's that that gets you going. Good review.
👍 The high torque 1200 Bonneville engine is such a great and versatile platform. Cheers
Hi there redang, my local triumph dealer has a demonstator speed twin in that lovely baja orange paint scheme that you you mentioned at the start of this great review and i have to agree that when you see it for real and not in photos it looks awesome. I wasnt to sure at first when that colour was announced but it really pops in the natural daylight. Hope to test ride one soon when this awful rainy weather has left us, once again great video and all the best ride safe cheers from gary.
Hi Gary, yes I really like the Baja Orange 👍 A bold move from Triumph but think it has worked well! The weather has been horrible hasn't it, will get colder soon but hopefully the rain will stop. Many thanks really glad you liked the video and all the best to you too. Cheers
That bull really is an absolutely beautiful animal,what a UNIT ! I hope that,he lives a long and happy life with his herd of cows , as befits such a magnificent beast.
Hear hear 👌 What a majestic animal. Quite scary up close though! Haha
The bike is brilliant, with some shortcomings... The suspension is "meh"... I had to install Ohlins shocks, K-Tech forks and an Ohlins damper to get it to handle the way I want.
The good news is that Triumph left a lot of power on the table, that they crippled with software... they pulled 8 degrees of ignition timing at wide open throttle, they used the ride by wire tables to not allow the throttlebodies to open all the way no matter how much throttle you give it, etc...
We went in with TuneECU and got rid of all of that nonsense and then tuned it with stock headers, an X-pipe(decat) and free flowing mufflers, and got almost 104hp at the wheel on the dyno, and a whopping 85ft/lbs of torque.
Between the suspension upgrades and all that extra power, it's now a proper sportbike, hiding under a tweed jacket...
👍 That sounds like a beauty!! Yes I have heard of Triumph restricting the power on these a fair bit. Great to hear the figures once it has been free'd up. Cheers and enjoy!
Looks like a nice mix of retro style and modern performance. Can't wait for the Z900RS comparison...
👍 Such a great balance of the two, a fantastic retro performance bike for the road! Same, looking forward to that vid. Cheers
Having test ridden it twice I can confirm your views. Loved it but I still hesitant with the street triple, very different bikes but they both appeal to me.
Its a tricky one, I suppose it just depends what you want from the bike.
Excellent detailed review mate and great video editing.
I get what you're saying about "not pulling at your heart strings" but for me, the more I watch reviews of this bike, the more I just want to have one! (Have subscribed to the channel)
Many thanks I appreciate it, glad you enjoyed the review 👍
Yes it is a fantastic bike, however just did not quite win over my heart! That is just personal preference though, I highly recommend a ride on one if you get the chance. Cheers and Merry Christmas
Have watched several reviews on this bike as am considering ownership, yours is by far the best & easiest watch. Nice one Angus
👍 Thanks so much I really appreciate that, glad you enjoyed the review. It is a great bike, such a good balance of performance and retro styling. Cheers
I just did 30,000 miles on mine and I still love her. One bike I will never sell.
👌 Great to hear you are enjoying it so much. Some solid mileage as well!
Been waiting for this one ,because iv just got one .Spot on review.
👍 Glad I finally got around to it! Massive congrats on your new ride. Rides as good as it looks! Hope you enjoy it. Cheers
Great review, the speed twin has a drawing attraction to it for me I love the retros. Have a great weekend.
Thanks so much I appreciate it 👍 Yes they are a beautiful looking bike and ride just as well. Same to you, cheers
Just traded in my 2019 Speed Twin for a 2023 Thruxton RS and wow. WOW. The RS is absolutely amazing and handles like a matured, higher performance sport bike.
👍 Sounds like a great trade to me. I have always been interested in the Thruxton, I think the engine is tuned nicer than on the Twin. Enjoy
As a former owner of a 2016 Thruxton R I have to say that it did not stoke any fire in my heart either but the T120 does even though it is heavier, slower, doesn't brake as well or have as premium a suspension. No accounting for taste I guess!😀
I think the Speed Twin is a great bike, but yes I just did not fall in love with it. Just goes to show stats and specs really are not all that counts. It is so true that it is about how the bike makes you feel 👍
I only agree with all the positive remarks! But the one thing that fail the bike for me is the size, I`m too tall… Too tight for my legs! Absolutely love the engine though! Have to continue with my adventure bike. Keep up the nice work!😀
👍 There are definitely more positives than negatives with this bike! Yes I am not that tall and I even found it very narrow. Can't go wrong with a good adventure bike these days 😁
how tall are you if you don’t mind me asking?
One of the best bikes I've ever ridden . Love it. Only issue is I'm looking for an adventure bike. So placed a deposit on the Desert X.
It is a fantastic ride 👍 Didn't quite pull at my heart strings though! Great choice with the Desert X
I chose my 2019 model over the Z900, but it was a very close choice as I'd never owned a Triumph before. Add a set of handlebar risers and it toured across France just fine last year. Only issue I've had to date is engine paint flaking off in the 38deg heat.
I think they are both quite equal choices in terms of quality etc... Really just depends on your preference in power delivery I suppose! Great to hear of one being used for touring 😎
RAR, you're not the only rider to like, but not love the T120. Other reviews seem to share a similar response to varying degrees. Hope as the weather improves to see more videos from you.
I hope that 'Caio Bella' remains close to you, as I wouldn't want you to withdraw from your internet support & friends. Lemmino, K?
Thanks, yes I hope to make some more videos soon! Have been very busy working etc...
Hi my friend. Enjoy a lot your videos. You have a very kind way of talking about this machines, that we love, so I thank you for that, because for me it means a high quality work.
The first Bonneville that I got to try was the Thruxton, and man, that rumbling engine was a very satisfying sensation to have! My problem with this bikes concerns to my background experience, Yamaha XSR 900 ABARTH edition, KTM SDGT which I mention just to explain a certain level of disappointment that I felt when I’ve ridden these bikes. The lack of that top end…it just wasn’t there, sadly, because this Bonnevilles have everything else at a very high level.
Secondary I tested this speed twin ( the Thruxton or the speed twin are very attractive bikes to the eye) and the general impressions were the same and lesser than the first trial with the Thruxton- which I found more appealing, besides the difference of price tags -, and finally I tested the T120, the Triumph I really decided to buy. This was ok, because it stopped my hunger for speed or fast riding. It really relaxed me and I understood that the spirit of the riding was another thing. I still have the bike, but I find it a little too low on its height but that’s perfectly manageable. Although, I haven’t tried any of the scramblers yet , but I definitely will, in a short term of time, I hope,and try to accomplish that. I’m particularly curious about testing the XE model, once that I usually feel myself at home riding taller bikes.
But there’s one thing I’ve got to admit:- This old style bikes are astonishing beautiful bikes to ride, and that counts to bring us happiness and the whole joy of riding, the sound of their torquy engines, the overall quality of construction, the paintings, components and the attention to detailing, the refinement of the general design, are attributes that simply convert this machines into the group of premium objects assimilated to the concept of excellency and collectible motorcycles. These Bonnevilles are more than just bikes. They are works of Art . 👌🏻✌🏻
Hi and thanks you so much I appreciate it 👍 So glad you enjoy the videos. What a pleasure to read your comment, I can feel your enthusiasm for motorcycles! For sure the Triumph Bonneville range is stunning, both in looks and performance.
I personally really liked the Kawasaki Z900RS, as a modern classic bike. The inline 4 is just so smooth and has a lovely top end. At the end of the day it is all about how the bikes make us feel, so many great options out there. Take care and enjoy your ride.
@@redangrevival thank you for replying and for your thoughts. Unfortunately, here in Portugal the Kawasaki commercial policy is too strict and they often don’t have motorcycles for test ride, which is unthinkable to me as a marketing strategy. Consequently, their sales, since ever I can remember, are marginal. Every other representative brands of the motorcycle world think and act differently offering their ranges of machines available for customers to test ride the respective models. Only Kawasaki does this , you can get the motorcycle if you order and pay for the bike, but they don’t use to permit to test ride the bikes, at least the big and more expensive ones, like the H2 1000 XS that I was interested but after all, I’ve ended to buy the KTM SDGT, because at the Kawasaki dealership I could only look and seat on the bike at the dealer’s premises but couldn’t test ride it 😳🙄and to me, that kind of limitations are frontally against my principles concerning commerce’s due process principles, so I say no to that lacking of normal standards and professional behavior. And because of that, I can’t confirm your relevant impressions about that specific bike although I have enough experience about the other three Japanese manufacturers, Honda, Yamaha and Suzuki.
Yes, you’re 100% spot on when you say that I have a big crush on motorcycles once it represents a form of Art and being able to ride them, the necessary skills to do it properly in every different environment this activity take place, is a form of Art too, and that is true fascinating to my view.
I follow with attention your channel content as I appreciate the way you address their subjects and objects and at the same time the cruising niche that I never explored and I feel that the moment to change some personal views about the several pleasures of riding motorcycles as I’m ready, at least, to recognize, it’s potencial interest, for experience. The cruisers segment wasn’t appealing to me, mostly because I don’t simpatize with the American stereotype of bikers that ride those kind of bikes and because I never aloud my self to ride a bike with a body position that wasn’t leaned forward or in maximum seated in an upright body position. Personal conventions that maybe it’s time to challenge.
Be well and ride safe✌️✌️
@@Fernando90054 That is very strange that Kawasaki don't let you test ride them! O well its their loss I suppose.
Yes highly recommend cruisers, may not be the best performing bikes but as works of art they are great.
Cheers
What a beast! Beautiful looking bike. You don't sound as excited as when you were on the Rocket though. 😉
haha it is a brilliant bike, but no definitely not as exciting as the Rocket 😁
Beautiful bike and good review. My Favorite of all the Bonnies! And who doesn’t enjoy a well proportioned rear end on a motorcycle or.. whatever 😃
Thanks glad you liked the review 👍 It is a great looking bike, love the proportions all round. And of course have to appreciate a great rear end 😂
"well proportioned rear end" ...LOL
Nice looking bike but still definitely prefer the T120/T100 looks wise..Great video buddy 👍
Thanks glad you liked the vid 👍 Yup the T's just nail the classic look so much better!
I have test ridden this bike back to back with Z900 and I far preferred the Triumph. The Z was jerky very close ratio but by far best looking. When I rode the triumph which I almost didn’t bother on looks, I fell in love. However, the price is crazy. I also think the suspension is cheap letting bike down. I would buy one in an instant if wasn’t so crazy expensive
👍 Interesting to hear your view after testing the two bikes back to back. I think I may personally prefer the Z900, but will reserve judgment until I have ridden both back to back! Think for a performance/retro road bike I may prefer the 4 cylinder. Both great bikes though no doubt. Cheers
@@redangrevival I just love twins. Z beautiful looking but close ratio box killed it for me as well as throttle response
@@volt8684 Fair enough, I get that completely. The beauty of motorcycling I guess, there is something for everyone 👍
@@redangrevival great series both on bikes and MH side👍👍
@@volt8684 Thanks so much 👍
I've recently purchased a 2019 model in red and grey tank trim l its fantastic I love it don't want get off the bugger good video 👍
Great to hear you are enjoying it so much 👍 It is for sure a quality bike. Cheers
Thanks I was very sceptical with these modern retro bikes but triumph have definitely come a long way 👍
'19 - '20 models might be my preference over the euro5s'. I missed out on a red one.
i thought ARAGORN riding a motorcycle
hehe
ride safe always
watching from the philippines
Haha that is a great compliment 👍 Thanks and you
Love the speed twins, just needs a set of British Customs exhaust to finished the package.
👍 Completely agree, a set of those exhausts would really improve it!
some kind of shortage of Japanese bike in the US over the last year. No one has Z900 , z700 anything. But Triumph and Ducati you can find full supplies all day at bike shops. I ended up with a 2022 T120 red and gold tank. Anyways I really wanted to try the Z900rs, but no one has any so there is that.
That is a shame, however the Speed Twin is a brilliant bike. Just depends on personal preference really, when comparing to the Z900
I like this one Red hard choice between the new RS Street triple at a similar price I am thinking maybe the Kawasaki would just edge it would love to try both and then the Street RS . Good one 👌👍
Thanks glad you liked the video 👍 Yup it is a really hard choice but think I agree with you. I think the Kawasaki would take the win! The Z900RS is very nice! Cheers
Why do people have difficulty in understanding that once you're upto decent speeds you will never hear the exhaust properly. The noise emits from the end as apposed to the induction noise which you'll have a better chance of hearing.
Take out the baffles. or cut the pipes down and go 70mph down the road and the wind noise will still be louder.
True! However cruising around at 30/40 mph with a nice rumble is something not to over look
Just bought a 2020 with 3200 miles on it. At 70 on the freeway, hit the throttle and was over 100 in a flash. Super tight, high integrity bike. A little disappointed that the turn sigs aren't self-cancelling though.
👍 It feels like a quality bike. Personally I prefer the Kawasaki Z900RS, but both lovely rides
i haven’t met anyone that actually wants self cancelling, sounds like a headache to me
Good review! 👍🏻
I’m not sure what to make of the back end of the bike, to my eyes the fender is too scrambleresque. Love the dials though! Cheers!
Thanks glad you liked it 👍 Yup fair enough, I suppose the back end could look a bit like that! I quite like it for the overall proportions of the bike.
Nice Review and Demo! Don’t they make a 900 in the Speed Twin now? I think I heard they did away with the Street Twin then added the 900 Speed Twin. I’d be interested in a Review and Demo of the 900. Please keep up the Good Work and Cheers from Salem, Ohio US.
Hi Rick, many thanks really pleased you enjoyed the review 👍 Yes they now call the Street Twin the Speed Twin, just simplifies the names I think!! I will do my best to schedule in a ride on the new 900 😁 Thanks and all the best to you.
2023 Speed Twin 900 is virtually the same as the 2022 Street Twin 900. Just a name change, unfortunately.
Would like to see you give the Triumph Trident a go and your thoughts on it.
I have been meaning to book one in for a ride for a long time now! Will definitely get around to it soon. Cheers
2022 Street Twin owner. That is it. That is my comment
Haha 👍 Cheers
are the digital display the same size and unreadable; in sunlight or sunglasses ?? street twin numbers for hear and rp too small. need 3 cm lettering
I didn’t notice any problems with the display to be honest
Lovely bike but the black handlebars look cheap, especially from the saddle. The exhaust note on the video is great.
It is great build quality. Am sure the handlebars can be changed out easily enough 👍
This or the comparable R9T?
Siamese exhaust = less weight + easier wheel removal.
I would personally go for the R9T 👍 Just has more character and I also prefer the looks with the boxer engine!
My experience with my '22 speed twin is the bike is very good 0-100mph with the factory tune. Unfortunately with me living in Montana, I find it a little underwhelming out on the highway when I'm borderline crouching down behind the Puig windscreen. I'm anxious to load a custom tune into the ECU to allow the mods I've already done to work to their maximum potential. In stock tune its a bit tame above 5000rpms in 5-6gear.
👍 Yea can understand that for sure! Plenty of useable power but at higher rev range it can gas out a bit, nature of a twin I suppose. I would think a custom remap would work nicely. You can always revert back to stock. Cheers
The layout of the engine has little to do with why the bike acts this way in factory tune. Nowadays alot of manufacturers sell multiple bikes with the same engine (triumph being a prime example) and tune them accordingly for the various levels of trim. The Speed Twin actually has the top of the line engine in the Bonneville lineup. The same as the Thruxton RS now with this second gen. They just take a smidge of power away at the very top of the rpm range of the tune. That way when you go to the dealer and check them all out together, the Truxton will seem to rev a bit more freely and obviously be louder with the Vance & Hines mufflers. I understand an inline 4 has different characteristics than parallel
@@redangrevival twins.
Does this bike have a Gear Position indicator ??,,The Orange looks Amazing !!
Yes there is an LCD screen with gear indicator on under the analogue dials 👍
I believe you have it wrong when it comes to the exhaust. Low down lovely. Higher revs it Screams! And that scream makes me want to give it even More stick
Fair enough, I suppose we all get different things from bikes!
Great review, nice one. If you had to choose between the 1200 Speed Twin or the 900, which would you choose?
Many thanks I appreciate it 👍 I would go for the 1200 for sure!
The 900 is a 5 speed. That's why it used to be called a Street Twin. Not a good long haul road bike.
What is the price of the 719 edition?
£15,180
F*$#@ing subscribed!
🤟 welcome to the channel
Which did you prefer, this or the Z900RS?
The Z900RS 👌
Would love to know what the gearbox is like.
Very nice! Light action and positive gear selection. Light clutch as well 👍
Just bought a 2020 Speed Twin over the Z900 :)
👌 congrats on your purchase. Hope you enjoy it
@@redangrevival Yeah just the emotional experience of letting go of my old bike :)
wish it had a bigger, fatter seat for 2 up riding.
Yes, but I suppose this would also detract from the looks
Won't the t 120 put out 98 horses with a remap ?
I am not 100% sure but I would not be surprised at all.
When thruxton rs?)
I hope soon! Harder to get a hold of
I’m 6 foot. Would this be alright to ride for my height?
Yes you would be absolutely fine.
@@redangrevival awesome! Thanks for the reply 😊
Good comprehensive review, have to agree it's not for me
Many thanks I appreciate it 👍 Brilliant bike, but yes not for me atm!
is it me or are you getting thrown around on those twisty roads? Hard suspension?
Bad roads!! It is a stiffer suspension set up than on other Bonnevilles, but it is well damped for the average UK road. Just a bad choice of road 🥴
I think the 900cc engines make a better day to day bikes, but the 1200 speed twin looks the dogs do dars.
Yes the 900cc is a great engine for every day and to have fun with. I think the 1200 just adds that extra muscle if you want to smooth things out a bit at higher speeds etc...
the simpler it gets, the more expensive it becomes... considering its price they should have fitted decent rear suspensions
Yes I do agree with that, better rear shocks would have been nice
@@redangrevival i mean I test rode a couple of times, it is really nice but frankly it’s not cheap at all… 😅
@@c.g.c2067 Yup agreed. Must say I actually preferred the Kawasaki Z900RS. Personal preference though
@@redangrevival Is is it just a matter of looks or is there something more about the z900rs?
@@c.g.c2067 I think the Z900rs is a bit better build quality and just love the 4 cylinder engine 👌
Don't any of you guys have friends who can film a few shots of the motorcycle you are riding moving down the road? It gets really old seeing the handlebars on every video. Why don't you guys just share one video track and do voiceovers?
Can be tricky to ask a friend to come along on every video! Unfortunately we don't all have the budget to hire a camera man/woman. Voice overs are not my style, I prefer the more immersive commentary when riding. Each to there own.
If you know a camera person that would like to work for free and follow me around on all my rides then please send me their details 👌
What we are increasingly being offered: two wheeled automobiles with huge engines, no consideration of weight or handling, and a bevy of needless electronic gizmos to justify a higher price tag. How has this come about? Easy, as the video shows: true motorcycling roads have been replaced by boring straight line highways. Handling? No need. Why bother.
O don't know, think I got a few "twisties" in! But yes engines are getting ludicrously big. I guess part of it is to try and retain the power response and still meet emissions
