    To my eyes this remains one of the most beautiful bikes on sale today. The components seem like they add up to a fun ride as well.

    Triumph have got the classic styling spot on with the bonneville range you can use all the power with fantastic handling and they look like a motorbike should look like, I still look back at mine and think it's beautiful

    I would like to see a test ride of the z900rs café racer to compare it with the thruxton because in my opinion these two are the best retro bikes in the market, thanks for the review.

    My speed triple r 2016 was in for Service yesterday and I was loaned a Thruxton R for the day, I can honestly say I didn't want to give it back, really took me surprise, the handling was better than speedy and the riding position was surprisingly comfortable ( I'm 5'10").OK the power is lower but the torque brought a wide smile.

    Excellent review! I'd love on of them! I'd like to see the trackday thing happen... ask for it back and do a race school or track day on it. I think a Thruxton RS would be a perfect riot on track. Oi Triumph! Give Dei the Thruxton back with sticky tyres and a track to use!
    Nice vid again. Made the bike look awesome.

    I bought a red Thruxton 900 back in 2011. A couple of years ago I ALMOST traded to one of these…but I couldn’t! I love the character of the one I’ve got. I’ve ridden it all around Tasmania, in particular, which is just hills, sweepers, U turns & it was brilliant! Besides I have a few other toys to whet my maniacal penchants!😈🚀 It’s a great bike D & I completely understand why you would love to keep it!😍👍🏼😎🇦🇺

    It took me some time to fall in love with my Kawasaki Concours 1400. So many riders put risers on the handlebars, but I decided to give it 90 days to build my core and ride it as designed. Rode it 30,000 miles through 24 states in the US.

    @alaincaspar2148 3 роки тому +4

    I bought it, ride it for 2000 km... and sold it ! It has a wonderful look, a nice sound, some torque but I was fed up of the position (I am 170 cm) and found the suspension to be not only firm but harsh. And also although it is quite enough powerful for the road, it lacks the madness some other bikes have. When you accelerate with it, it goes fast but in a very easy way. I bought the Speed Triple 1200 RS instead and although it doesn't have the style of the Thruxton, I prefer it. It is firm also but not quite like the Thruxton (we have a lot of bumpy roads where I live). The position is also forward but also not quite like the Thtruxton and it makes all the difference. And when you accelerate, whouah it is mental (even if you don't do it often...). But for someone who is not bothered by the position, heavier than me so not bothered by the suspensions and is ok with the power then I admit few bikes look that good !

    • @nuruzzaman4893
      @nuruzzaman4893 2 роки тому

      Thanks for your input. I have a Thruxton 900 and I'm seriously thinking I'd like the RS. But then there's a side of me that wishes to be on a supersport again, but you end up wanting to look like a Power Ranger again, which I've done when I was on my R6 a decade ago. So what other bikes look this good and perform well?

    Bike looks nice, but unfortunately I can't ride in that position anymore. My hands go numb in less than 30 min.
    I had a Honda CB1100 which has a more comfortable riding position but I had the same issue.
    As far as a bike suggestion, try the Kawasaki Z900 RS. It's really nice!

    Interesting review of a beautiful looking bike. I'd like to know how you managed getting around the riding position discomfort on day 1 - you said it was mainly motorways so I guess the wind blast from the higher speeds should have helped lift your body weight/take pressure off your wrists? But you said it was better on subsequent days on the twisties?

    This is a good looking bike but not comfortable to ride. I am 177cm and 80 kg. but could not get comfy. After half hour I took it back to the dealer coz my wrists were painful. I am not used to leaning forward, I have ridden cruisers for too many years but want to change.
    The 660 Triple is a good bike but I would need short risers on the bars if I bought one.
    After your review of the Triple I went on a test ride and liked it very much. It will not go out of my head now.
    I think you might like the MotoGuzzi Bopper..., is there a dealer in the Essex/Suffolk area where you can test ride it for us?

    • @davidmacgregor5193
      @davidmacgregor5193 3 роки тому

      Cafe Racers aren't built for comfort, they are bar hoppers that are mean't for riding on short journeys. If you want a comfortable ride don't even consider a Cafe Racer style machine, a touring motorcycle would be more your style.

    The twisty bits is where ANY Thruxton, from 2004 onwards, absolutely excels. That 1" smaller front wheel, radial rear tyre (on the 900 model) together with the engine mods make this model a top bike if you like endless curves.
    Your curves look great too BTW.

    How come it didn't fit you the first day, but fit you when you tried the next time? Did you have a growth spurt😅😉? I wouldn't want to ride a Thruxton RS that's too tall for me on a track day if i were you. In addition to the lack of windscreen being tiering fast, if you can't grip the tank properly you'll be struggling with the bike all day. This bike belongs on the street, racing between fuel stops and food stops (or cafe's). It's where it was born and breed. 💖💖👏🏼👏🏼
