Your negatives are petty. Personal opinions about the subtle looks are fine. But the fuel gauge slow response disconcerting? It's a common quirk on bonny's. And doesn't bother anyone after the first fill up. And the stickers? Not sure if that was a concern or a feeble attempt at humor.
People complaining about the fuel display taking a few moments to register always makes me laugh. You know you just filled up the petrol tank. whats your problem? It takes moment to register, So what?
"So what" pretty much sums up the level of quality control in my country back when commies ruled it... Or this is the approach I associate with cars from USSR.
@@jaromor8808 it's because the fuel level is calculated based on average fuel sensor level - so it takes a while to recalculate - unlike the old Ruski fuel gauges, the level won't hop around over every bump, or when you accelerate or brake.
I had a T120 for 3 years and loved it, but this year I noticed I was feeling the weight of it for the first time, so I noticed the Speed Twin was 60 lbs lighter so I got one 3 weeks ago and love it. It's a great bike.
I own a Speed Twin along with many other motorcycles including a 2013 Triumph T100 and a 2018 Bobber Black. In stock form, I am not a big fan of the Speed Twin. Most problematic is the sloped forward seat along with the compact riding triangle (I am 6 ft tall). I also agree with TFL that the exhaust note lacks character. The suspension is also quite primitive and too weak for me at 210 lbs. Fortunately I discovered TEC Bike Parts out of the UK and their USA distributor. TEC (I have no financial or other connection to their business) produces extremely well engineered after market parts, primarily for Triumph, at very affordable prices. TEC's progressive fork springs raises the front end and reduced front end dive on braking. Their rear shocks included a lowering feature that allowed me to drop the rear just over an inch. The stock seat is a two tier affair that forced me into the tank along with the geometry...I replaced that with a Triumph aftermarket pleated seat that is flat from front to back. Finally, I switched to TEC's adjustable foot pegs to lower the pegs. The end result is a vast improvement in handling and rider ergos. I also converted from the stock exhaust to at TEC 2-1 exhaust for a far better sound and a clear performance improvement. The beauty of the TEC exhaust is that when you get on it has a beautiful throaty rumble but when you are cruising at low RPM it is very quite. The changed also dropped something like 18 lbs as the catalytic converter and dual pipe stock system is obesely heavy. With these changes and a few others my Speed Twin went from a bike I wasn't sure I wanted to own to one that I may never sell.
Yes ive seen a few reviews on Tec products and everyone says they transform their bike for a great price. I live in the uk and noticed on the US website that they dont sell the powercam for the Speed Twin --adds about 10bhp.
I've got a 2016 T120 with the cherry red metallic flake tank and the perfect ratio of brushed aluminum and chrome. Just a little more upright and actual mid controls. I took it on a tour of Michigan's UP and loved every second. The bike is great and that 1200HT is smokin
Hey Roman, Glad to see you’ve added a full bike section to the TFL lineup! If you’re interested, I have a 2015 BMW Gs and a 2019 Honda Rebel 300 and live down in Littleton if you’d like to review them. You guys are more than welcome. Keep up the good work!
True comment about the clocks/dials. They look great and you can kind of read them of course sometimes I miss the modern TFTs showing bigger mph, gear & ride mode info. Love the torque and engine throb on these Triumph 1200 twins and there are ways of getting a better exhaust note.
I just recently picked up a 2019 speed twin and I love it more than any other bike I've owned. I've had to mod a few little things for my own comfort but I really can't complain about anything major. All in all I think their a great bike and I have my eye one at least one more triumph model which is the Scambler XE.
I like this bike. I like Triumph's line-up in general. I am so happy to see a proper speedometer and tachometer. I could care less about riding modes and gear indicator. Fuel gauge is nice, but not necessary. I usually reset my trip meter and go by it any way. Biggest issue with me is the nearest dealer is 100 miles away.
I just traded my Speed twin in on a R1250R for this reason. I am 6,1 and 200lbs. Loved the look of the bike. Terrible suspension but looks wonderful. Just too small for me unfortunately
Roman, you want more chrome, more bling, more style, and more leg room, but you still want a Triumph modern retro classic? Bonneville T120. Not as fast or light as the Speed Twin, but a lot more comfortable, and its looks are exactly what you want from a '60's-era British Twin.
Nicely produced, thanks! Near as I can tell the sticker on the tank tells us to read the bible and eat pizza. I opted for the T120 instead, and it's all day comfortable. The engine is less powerful, of course, but you never run out of power and gas mileage is excellent. My riding buddy has a Thruxton and he wins any contest of speed or agility. I keep telling myself how comfortable my T120 is. He has to gas up 50 miles before I do.
I really like how Alex and Case are doing these bike videos. Audio/video are much better than the average UA-cam bike reviewers whose audio is muffled, distorted and hard to understand. Great job! Not sure how much I like Roman being a part of the bike videos. Will Nathan and Andre be riding and reviewing bikes, too.
Back in the day I had a BSA Hornet flat tracker. Just a tach and bad brakes. Wicked fast ! It knocked a hole in the bottom of my boots one day trying to start it.
THANK YOU for this great video! I am confused between z900rs and Speed Twin. Have you tried both? If yes, which one will you suggest for a 600 kilometers drive in a single day? I am looking not for speed of the bike but for relaxed fun drive. Regards, Anoop Kumarakom/ Cayman Islands
You’ll never really know until you ride, or at least sit on them. I did sit on Speed Twin, but didn’t ride it. I went with the z900rs because imo it reflects very highest in quality and attention to detail. IMO it resolves most of the criticism heard about Triumph. Better, more adjustable front and rear suspension; more comfortable seat and peg position; more readable instrument panel; great stock exhaust sound, growling, but not obnoxious; better looking, more chrome with in-line 4 pipes; better gas cap; has great abs brakes plus 2 levels of traction control, which saved my life coming to a complete stop in about 30 feet going 50 mph! It is so much fun to ride I challenge you NOT to smile every time you ride the z900rs! FYI : I bought a 2018 in California from original owner with 2600 miles for $8300, plus it already had radiator protector, rear chrome grab bar and slide protectors. If you’re not too concerned with speed/ torque, you may also consider the new, inexpensive Royal Enfield 650 with 3 year warranty! Good luck with your decision.
@@scottashdown3686 I had the same dilemma and went with the Triumph. The Speed Twin looked better quality to me, but I think its more that I probably looked at it with rose tinted glasses on, as im more a twin man than a four man.... Both a great classic looking bikes.
That’s definitely easier to start than my ‘72 Bonneville. In the morning I need to kick start mine (ignition off) to free the clutch, then “tickle” the carbs til some gas comes out of the ticklers, give it a couple kicks to draw fuel in from the bowls, and finally turn the ignition on to kick start the bike. If you follow the procedure the bike will start on the first kick when you finally turn the ignition on. If you don’t then you’ll be kicking for a while wishing for a push button start and that’s IF you didn’t fall off to begin with because you didn’t free the clutch first 😂
Thanks for the video. I started looking at videos of the speedmaster but then quickly got drawn to the speed twin. I’ve got a garage full of harleys and I want a bike just to go out and ride some twistys.....and I’m too old for the sport bike position.....plus I want something cool. I used to have a bmw boxer roadster that was a blast and I want to have that fun again. Went to the triumph dealership last week and they are going to let me know when the 2021s come out. I’m definitely sold. P.s. got the same shoes....good choice
Nice bike. You guys should take a look at the kawasaki w800 cafe or regular. I just picked up the cafe andI love it. GIves me the look and feel of a triumph with Japanese reliability.
Nice review. I own a 2018 T120 Bonneville. I much prefer the T120 or the Thruxton to the Speed Twin. The T120 if you want laid back retro styling and the Truxton is you want sport retro styling. The Speed Twin styling is in between the two so less compelling to me.
I got this bike in September 2020. Great bike but I agree on the exhaust. I got the TEC 2>1 Raider exhaust and it sounds like a proper hooligan bike now, angry and loud. Sadly, not even 2000 miles and 3rd gear is slipping at full throttle. I like the bike a lot and hopefully the warrantee takes care of it.
@@e.l.9589 I believe so. It seems like the oil had gotten a little low. Either the oil didn't get topped up sufficiently during the last change or it burned some off because I never noticed a leak. Anyway after noticing and adding more oil the 3rd gear slipping went away.
Ive been considering the Speed Twin with some knobby tires. I really like the low parallel exhaust over the high scrambler exhaust. Obvioisly you can run some side roads/gravel roads ok with the twin?
I'm really surprised at the amount of retro-cosmetic detail in Triumph's big twins - the most in this segment. My dad had a friend with a BSA Rocket and said both cylinders would fire at the same time?? Anyways 360 crank I guess and he said it was more vibratory than his 45/45.
Good choice. I've owned both and still own the Z900RS SE. So that tells you what I think! The Kaw is nimble, fast, refined and a classic in the rootbeer and candytone. One word of caution........... watch when you change the oil....... the O ring on the oil filler cap has a habit of slipping off. If you accidently start the bike without that O ring, you'll be seeing an oil pressure warning. Scared the crap out of me; then I saw the O ring on the garage floor.
Good review but how it compares to something like the Kawasaki clone would be really interesting It would also be interesting to understand when they got modern enough to not have the gremlins of it’s past
From a performance perspective, this bike is not worth $12K. It has the same 0-60 time as an SV650, but costs almost $5K more. There are better value options out there, including Triumph's upcoming Trident.
Triumph really nailed it recently as well as Indian. Over-priced IMO, but they need to cash in I guess. Tough choice between the Twin or Scout. I like the classic styling of the Twin but belt drive of retro Scout.
If you own the bike, those stickers need to be removed anyway! I think this bike looks and sounds fantastic as it is, but it's well out of my price range and I would probably have the same issue with my legs being cramped...
Interesting to see such a negative review among nothing but glowing feedback and reviews on the bike! I am a huge fan. I think it is a revolutionary bike that hits all the spots in terms of a modern classic bike. The beauty of Triump's is that you can easily modify it to suit your needs. It is beautiful exactly because it is so understated. More chrome?? Crazy idea.
I have 50,000+ miles on a 700xDCT (2014)..An amazingly versatile machine. I tour and commute on it. Been all over the USA. I fully expect it to go another 50,000 miles. Oil/filter/tires has been all it needed. Still have the original battery!
I am 61 now and don't think I have ever ridden any British bike. I always heard about their lousy electrics and general poor build quality. I loved the look of the Norton 750 Commando! I still ride, but now it is a more conservative R1200RT.
Build quality of all modern Triumphs is very good, it took a slight dip when they first started manufacturing in Thailand but recovered. BMW S1000R engines go bang with alarming regularity.
Mate. I own a speed twin. Watched the video and ok. One, yes the screens are small. But beyond fuel, I literally never look at them. So yeah be nice if they were larger. But not really a biggie. Two, you're upset about stickers. Stickers you peel off in 3 seconds. And chrome. So you can pose next to a Harley. Good lord. This review has the depth of a puddle. There are legit concerns on the speed twin you missed because you're upset you can't pose.
They don't sell stylish 86 whp 74 ft-lbs bikes for $8K, that's the deal. $12K is pretty much the going price for a decently desirable motorcycle right now. $8K will get you an alien looking Kawasaki Z650 with 57 whp 41 ft-lbs.
Well that review had all the depth of a puddle. Its not a chromed up harley. And its got manufacturers stickers on the headlight and tank. I don't care if you don't like it, but jesus.

Get a Scrambler XE instead then if you want a bit of retro cool.
You might like to know that in London (since you speak so fondly of it) TFL means Transport For London.

They're built in Asia now and all that electronic gremlin shit is a thing of the past
Build quality of all modern Triumphs is very good, it took a slight dip when they first started manufacturing in Thailand but recovered. BMW S1000R engines go bang with alarming regularity.
It appears that the negative comments that I and others wrote have been removed.
My only issue with this bike is the price tag
good review but I disagree with the chrome comment, who wants to spend hours polishing chrome
Are they reliable? That's the question. Chrome! Chrome on motorbikes is like gold on women.
This thing is lucky it made it off the assembly line. Way to expensive, just paying for the name on this model
"100 miles in the last couple of days"...Enough said. Go review a barca lounger for chrissakes.
