Pros and Cons in comparison

Triumph Bonneville T120 2021

You can't ride a retro bike more convincingly than on the Triumph Bonneville T120. The name conveys so much classic flair that the actual riding almost takes a back seat. That would be a shame, though, because if you don't care about performance on the last jag, the Bonnie with its superior twin offers a successful all-round carefree package that makes big and small happy. The chrome-glittering British beauty is a museum piece that rides modern.
