15,000 Mile Review - Triumph Bonneville T120 Black
Check out this video for my thoughts after 15k miles with my 2020 Triumph Bonneville T120 Black. I have loved every minute with this motorcycle - from touring multiple states and serving as a daily commuter, ole Bon is a fantastic motorcycle. Stick around to the end of the video to hear my decision about whether or not the Bonnie stays or goes!

Gene Goes Shopping: I Bought One of Everything
Sooooo… sounds like your describing the speed twin
You can definitely flick it almost like a naked bike
Honda sets the bike to run very lean to pass European emissions by putting a throttle commander on it it gets rid of twitchyness especially on downshifts it really smooths the bike out nicely that & a slip on exhaust & 1 inch handlebar risers if your under 5'11" & you should be good
Add 2 teeth to the rear sprocket....adds more response to an otherwise great bike!
Get a Harley heritage classic low seat height, comfortable
Haven’t seen a new video in a year so just checking in on behalf of all your subs, Hope all is well!
What is a dct bike ?
Hi Gene, can you share a little about what changes you made to the rear fender/tail light? Looks great and a little like the Ace. Any part numbers you can share? Thanks!
8 named my 24' Bonscott
Just a question , which city did you drive this in ? Would you consider this a good bike to drive in a city with significant population ?
Hope you are okay, it is been a while.
Interesting feedback… and good luck for the future. ❤️😎👍✅
Was this your last video? What bike did you get? I don't know if you are aware, but your channel seems to only have videos up until this one.
What a Triumph Triple ?
I totally agree, the most comfortable bike. The most suitable bike for long distance. Perhaps even better than the Speed twin.
Really nice review. Thanks for posting.
Hello, you describe three things that you like. If you try to reach the things you don't like I think that you will miss the three firsts. Hane nice riding
Is 15,000 a lot for a bike? What is the max if I want to buy a used one?
I'm currently riding a 2020 Kawasaki Z900, but I'm considering the T120 as my next bike. I'm getting older, and my injuries are getting the best of me when it comes to riding the Z. Most of the cruisers that I've looked at that are in the higher HP range are so big and heavy. I think this might be the best alternative for me. :)
I think you would love the Scrambler
Sounds like you’re ready for a Scrambler.
That all blacked out bike will be filthy in the first rain storm. The fenders suck, and offer no protection from the road/ rain.
Soooo a speed twin for performance and a scrambler for your off road likings?? lol the Bonnie’s are cruising … the lols of retro and role with what they offer. Great vid though!! Loved it! Saved and subscribed!! 😊
I had the Tiger 800XR and loved it. Took it across Texas, up through New Mexico, Colorado, Utah, Wyoming and Montana and then over to South Dakota through the black hill mountains and back down to South Texas. It was super comfortable for long rides and wasn't too big so I would just jump on it to ride around town or to work. The newer Tigers are even better but seems like the price is up 25% or more
Obviously, you took care of that bike...it looks new for 15k miles. Good luck with your new Triumph Tiger : )
There's several bonnies here with like 40-60k that basically look brand new, it's nuts how well people take care of these bikes
1 eternally later ………….. …….
I see you had Vance and Hines pipes. Did they improve the responsiveness etc?
You just need a Scrambler 1200
The big scrambler
Mr Darcy and old man both over 6 feet and had no issues with the T120 seat height
Or not?
After listening to your dislikes, I think you should have purchased a different Triumph. Maybe the Scrambler or Street Twin. Maybe check those two out. I'm 69 years old and my days of getting bent out of shape cornering are long gone, so for me and my Bonnie T120 it's the perfect fit for me. For all the reasons you stated and that I won't be tempted into stupidity as in the days of my 85 GPz 900! I'm really lucky to be alive thinking of all the stupid moves I did back in the day. But, I'm glad you enjoyed your T120 and hope you find your utopia bike in the future. Cheers.
Totally contradictory comments.
Sounds to me like you're getting a scrambler. I've been eyeballing one for the last year.
Never uploaded another video?!
nice review on the positives of the bike - beautiful bike. but the negatives you listed are simply not. you've changed your riding preferences as many do, the bike is fine;
If you want a little more power and performance, put an xpipe on it 👍😊
Thanks for this video! I’ve spent hours looking for a good comprehensive comparison between these two bikes and this was very enjoyable to watch. You’re easy to listen to
If you want something that is more dual sport they make a model called the scrambler. The Bonneville isStreet only. You picked the wrong motorcycle.
May as well have an Ebike 😅
Hey Gene! Hope youre doing good! Whats the new bike? 🙂
bonneville is a bike to graduate into. not really a bike to start with. with riding more and more you will eventually grow back into the bonny as always. or......be an adv perp
You are going to get a Scrambler XE?
Great review. Love the shot of BM -9A !
You'll get either the Twin 1200 or the Scrambler 1200 XE.....if you decide to stay in the Triumph zone, of course...
Wonderful review! Returning (hopefully) rider from 40 years ago and I'm torn between the Hunter 350 and the Triumph Speed 400. It would seem that the Hunter's low 20 hp is sufficiently compensated for by the long-stroke under-square bore/stroke ratio. From what I'm seeing from various Hunter reviews is that the "surprise" from many reviewers about the Hunter's capability might stem from the torque being able to sustain the bike at 65 mph. In any event, I ask you, was the Hunter vibey much at 60-65? This is all I plan on doing max. I have also heard that the Speed 400 is more than a little vibey at that same range. And here is where I am guessing that the Hunter's extra weight might help as it might feel more planted. Thoughts anyone?
What happened?
By 4’50” I had decided she wants a scrambler XE
All ya gotta do is put some off-road tires on it. I suggest Dunlop Trailmax Missions. They’re like 70/30 tires and last a long time. 👍🏻👍🏻
Good review. Oddly, or not, Im going the opposite direction. I have a BMW R1200 GS and Im looking to buy/trade for something less tall, less powerful/fast, and less dirt worthy lol.
