I know I’m old but not that long ago that size bike was considered large and you’d order a plexi windscreen and saddlebags out of a catalog and hit the highway…

There's something to be said about a bike one can simply jump on and ride. Not too much or too little of anything. There's also something to be said for its timeless look and design. A positive evolution that we seemingly forgot until recently. A modern version of something we should have never forgotten.

I own a 2022 T120 and have done 35k kilometres. It’s my daily ride and I’ve toured across South Australia on it. Beautiful bike to commute on and for touring.

Hey Zack, I realise you probably will never see this message but I just wanted to say thank you. Yours and Ari‘s videos were the first ones that I started watching about five years ago when I first considered getting my motorcycle license. That’s been a really long journey for me and five years later over here in the UK, I am now proudly in possession of my full A-class motorcycle license. I went out and after a lot of thinking and a ton of research I decided to go for a Triumph Bonneville T100 in competition green and ironstone. Watching your videos has really inspired me, it’s informed me and it’s entertained me. I think you and Ari in particular do an amazing service to the motorcycle community as a whole. You helped me to become a new rider, and I’m looking forward to a lifetime of adventures and fun on my bike. So yeah thanks man, you’re a really good dude and I really appreciate everything that you do and that goes out to you and Ari and Spence and all the unseen team who edit and support these great productions. Keep up the amazing work and thanks for your brilliant channel. Cheers, Conrad.

All the classic-style Triumphs are mouth-wateringly beautiful. The color on the tank is all details are perfect. Total eye-candy.

I just test rode this bike three times at the demo rides at Sturgis this week. I, also rode the T120, The Speedmaster, the Rocket 3, the Thruxton, and the Scrambler 900. The reason I rode the T100 three times is because I needed to be sure that I liked it as much as I did. This bike will be my next addition to the stable and, most likely, will be the mainstay as I ride into my seventh and eighth decades. It fits me perfectly, has nice power, handles very easily and neutral, looks amazing, and sounds very soothing at 70 mph. Now, I just need to struggle with the fact that I'll need to get rid of two others to make room.

I think you nailed it. I have a Royal Enfield Interceptor 650, my friend has one of these and we often swap backwards and forwards. I agree, it’s at least a half step above my INT650, definitely in regards to that extra power and the quality of gearbox, switchgear etc. I couldn’t afford the extra dollars for this so I bought the RE but I appreciate what you get for the extra dollars over the RE.

Recently did a 1, 550 mile trip on my T100. Mostly stock except for a more comfortable seat and some luggage. It handled 80-85mph all day long and gave me no issues.

Bought a 2023 T100 a few weeks ago. All my other rides were adventure bikes so a total departure for me. Wanted something that could be easily hopped on for a quick blat about and easy trips through town etc. Actually found this bike to be very flexible and way more fun than expected - I ride slower, as it is naked it feels faster but is also very relaxing. I'm pretty confident that it could tour 2 up for 3-4 day trips and solo tour everywhere my R1200GSA went (never rode it off road - too expensive to risk). Overall, much more impressive than I originally gave it credit for.

I bought a T120 last year, and I love it. I always come home with a smile.

I never realized how much I love these retro looking bikes. But man, do I ever pucker up when you are doing wheelies on these bikes! Great review! Thanks!

2016 air cooled T100 owner here. Bought it for looks and nostalgia. I have owned this bike longer than any other motorcycle. I added a shield and bags but everything else is stock. I rode up to Maine which was a 10 hour ride without aches and pains. It just works on every level.

As a Speed Twin (1200) owner I knew Zack was a man of culture and taste.

I've got a 2017 T100, I bought it brand new. As far as I can tell, they haven't changed much. I will say, as good as the transmission is when it is new, it only gets better as the bike breaks in. It's buttery smooth and I never have a problem finding a positive neutral. I may ride more conservatively than the boys at RevZilla, I get 58 MPG out of mine. It really is a pleasant, joyfully bike to ride.

I love it. The Bonneville is the Jerry West of Motorcycles. Jerry West is the logo and the Bonneville is the silhouette of motorcycles

Harley-Davidson continues to overlook this segment of motorcycles. They should be thinking about a bike that provides a path for older riders to downsize from their big heavies and also for riders that would be new to the brand. I think if HD really tried, they could make an outstanding smaller displacement naked.

I recently completed a trip on a new 2025 T120 from Stockholm Sweden to Palermo Italy. I’m 67 with some lower back problems and I found this bike very comfortable and the upright position was easy on my back.

Been riding since the mid 80s and it always makes me smile when I hear a 900cc is called entry level.

When I started riding street motorcycles, Triumph was out of business in the US. They were history and it was uncertain that they would ever return. I’m glad they have returned…

I own a 2020 Triumph T100. It's plenty of bike for me! Took it to Sturgis and back from Dallas Texas, back in August (2024). Roughly 2500 miles for that trip. She did fine! Love her to death.
