Could you put up the model number for the Vance and Hines that you installed on the bike? Love that purr. By the way, thank you so much for the honest reviews. I'm a Harley rider looking to jump ship from my 1200 sportster. Basically, I need to shed a 100 pounds of bike and get brakes that actually work. All the other reviews on UA-cam are raving about the brakes and engine sound of the scrambler and you shut it down in a fair way on your other video. It was hard to find a video out there that was being objective about the riding experience or one that didn't spend the whole review talking about the aesthetics of the bike. I could make that call on my own. Props, dude
Here is the link: shop.triumphmotorcycles.com/exhaust/id-A9600503/Vance__Hines_Black_Slip-On_Exhaust They are the factory available cans, but you must remove the DB killer to get a nice sound out of them. Thanks for the positive feedback bro!
Thank god I found a video of someone in new england giving a real review of how the roads are not perfect but yet that bike seems awsome i currently have a harley street rod 750 and awsome performance but the ergonomics of the bike suck after being on it for an hour I want to get off of it and will not ride it for a couple weeks after to let my body adjust lol. Im hearing nothing but good things about this bike I think I'm sold and by this summer I believe I will be trading in that Harley towards a Thruxton R 😊
I’m enjoying the same bike right now after watching nearly every review on UA-cam I think !! ... my mods so far are rear eliminator black sump guard, leds, leather tank strap and smoked screen thingo ... and yup rear pegs and comfort seat which works a treat .... enjoy 😊
Looks like a great riding area. I don;t believe I have ridden in Maine much but I should since I'm only in MA. I was curious about how it would be for a tall-ish person (I'm about 6'3") but you answered that right away. I will have to take a look at these.
Hey dude, that sounds really nice and looks great. I have a 2017 Street scrambler which I got on December 2017, so not even ridden her yet. Your roads look lovely and empty. You mentioned it was cold( several times) but I noticed you don’t have winter gloves on, might stop all that wind going up your sleeve.. jus sayin😆. Happy and safe ride. 👍🏻🇬🇧🏍
Thanks for the tip on the LEDs install. Where did you find that info regarding the ECM adjusting to LEDs? I've have two LED tail lights go out and want to read up more on it. Thanks.
I love the comments about “traffic”, huh? what traffic? It just shows you how people in America perceive the world, only through their myopic view point!
No flippin way. I only have my 2016 R two weeks and I still have not plucked up the courage to put it in sport mode. Its a monster already in the intermediate road mode.
You consider THAT traffic?! You don't know how good you have it brother.

Glad you're enjoying the bike man! Can't wait to see what you do with it.
Ben Smith it’s a sweet ride!!!

Cool motorcycle. 😎👍🏽
Where in Maine are you riding? I live in Boston, take mine up to Belgrade ME each year (well my new Thruxton last year and for years to follow!)
send me a message when you are coming up! Southern maine outside of portland :)
Really glad I found a fellow tall rider! What's your inseam? :)
I'm also 6'4 tall and looking to get this bike in spring.
precludeneco 6,4” as well. Buy it you won’t be disappointed!🤜🏽
Try to get a late year deal! The 18's are out and 17's have some sweet deals right now!
BackDraft yeah I will go to the dealers during Xmas and have a look. It's going to be either a thruxton R or the XSR900 Abarth :)
Come to India and experience the traffic here.
What! No walk around? :)
Soon...my son...soon
Would you recommend this bike for a person as their first road bike?
No, it's like Daniel Craig as James Bond in a tuxedo. Suave and sophisticated on the outside but an utter thug underneath.
No flippin way. I only have my 2016 R two weeks and I still have not plucked up the courage to put it in sport mode. Its a monster already in the intermediate road mode.
Did it stall on you? Mine stalls everywhere in traffic after running for more that 15 minutes.
Hmmm. I would follow up with the dealer on that. The engine management is pretty solid on these.
I heard there’s a recall on fuel maps for the Thruxton R- get it checked
1 car. I can’t handle this traffic 😂😂😂. Id get rid of the stickers.
LOL! Yes- the stickers are long gone! Thanks for the comment!
Do you think it will beat a 600cc japanese supersport?
Easily up to 100 mph...then..I don't know...
Robin Basulto top speed 135 exceleration. Awesome
If you could only earn one motorcycle, Wish would that be. ?
Gotta remove those tank stickers
