Triumph Bonneville T120 Black 2017

Triumph Bonneville T120 Black 2017

Keeping a motorbike model technically up to date for over 60 years without visually departing much from its origins is an enormous challenge - which Triumph has mastered brilliantly with the Bonneville T120 Black. The larger 1200cc engine, the electronics and many modern details have been wonderfully embedded in the old school look. The performance is impressive, but the focus is still on cosiness and that certain flair that defines a Bonnie. And here Triumph has once again hit the bull's eye amidst the many retro attempts of the competition.

Powerful engine with decent torque

comfortable seating position

good brakes

wonderfully authentic look

Suspension only adjustable in spring preload at the rear

unnecessary, but also not annoying performance modes
