I keep expecting a zombie to jump out on this stretch of creepy road . Jokes aside , I don't like it as a cruiser . The tank is too small, making it an around town cruiser and not a highway cruiser . I don't like the 99mph governor... being that I live in Florida, state of the cagers that rage , you will occasionally need much higher than 100 mph to get clear of these maniacs that are emotionally charged with unhinged hatred for motorcycles.
Overall a great bike, but for riders that are more than 6ft it is just too small. Great video bro. I enjoyed it. Keep going. When have time just drop by to check my content. Cheers.
This is the best color as well! Have the same one 2023 . Grey is the best color for 2023 the fat bob checks all the boxes for me so far . Thing is a machine
I've had Japanese bikes, American, buell and harley, and now the exact bike you have there. Let me tell you, i couldn't be more excited about this bike. It's a blast to ride.
You don't ride the bike the way you are riding it on off all the time because of the size of the engine half throttle is more than enough just be smooth with the power roll the power on slowly it's not the bike for you your inexperienced gonna end up in a Body bag
Not sure I agree its good for an absolute beginner. It has enough power to get you into trouble very fast. Especially the low end torque. Also its too expensive to drop! Make all your mistakes on a less expensive bike. Just my thoughts. Ive owned mine for 2 years and its my 3rd bike..
Gr8 Video man! The last video I watched was when you did the review comparing the CB1000r vs CBR650R (the last bike I had before the Scottish storms destroyed my metal bike lock up :) Did you change the CB1000r for a Triumph?
had the cb1000r as. courtesy bike during an insurance claim, so always had the triumph bobber, just had the cb1000r for a month (then a suzuki gsx1000gt)
I'm surprised you got the bike back as 4th dimension are known to scrap bikes and just hand you the money. Which they then sell the bike on for even more by doing minimal repairs They take months to do anything to bump up storage and hire bike costs
I bet that they used 4th dimension for this and they are a crook company that screw bikers over and insurance company leaves you in their hands They add all sorts of chargers to make a money from storage and won't deal with you if you don't take a courtesy bike The insurance are handing themselves over a barrel to 4th dimension and they are rubbing their hands Insurances don't want to deal with bikes directly and that's the issue
good evening, love the scrambler and love the videos. its made me want to try making a few videos. I took 6 of us to Wales last weekend and got some footage. if you get chance take a look at them and give me some feed back. cheers buddy
Feul tank is 12L, I ran it on 0 miles for another 20 miles the other week and it took 11.2L so you can probably do 30+ miles when its showing 0. Triumph HQ have confirmed there is fuel in the tank when it shows 0. The mapping is also very lean, which makes the throttle stuttery around roundabouts etc.
every bike is easy to steal! edinburgh is bike crime capitol of the uk (outside of london) but also so many drivers are total fannys these days and can even bump you while standing still in a petrol station (see previous insurance video)
depends, if you see a video of someone speeding on this bike, no, i am deffo not dom bower I must have lent my bike to my law braking friend. but if it is just a video of me going around edinburgh, then yes.
Yep chest mounted dji action 3 just recently bought. But also for some videos I also record via an iPad in the rucksack for when wind noise is too much. See latest video (triumph bobber asmr)
It’s brilliantly obnoxiously loud with a great sound. I am running 1 shorty pipe one stock muffler and that is just perfect for the amount of pops and bangs especially in the city.
How you finding it now? It’s intense eh!? I have Hitchcox x pipe and short pipes and as cool as it sounds its just too much sometimes, I’ve bought a Norman Hyde x pipe so i can put original silencers back on and see how it sounds. I like the x pipe as the bobber runs so much smoother.

Nice to see Edinburgh from a bike. What day was this? I was on my bike on the same road out of town on Fri and Sat and had a few Swfties ask for a braap.
Had one... sold it... crap throttle response off idle that Triumph couldn't fix... rear shock was utter pants... Hagon was better, but still not brilliant, loved the torque and looks but the throttle and suspension ruined it... had it two years... and didn't gel with it... it may have been a great seller, but there are shedloads for sale, so I think that says summat... if ya like it fair play, not for me...👎
I wonder if my 2023 version had some of those things ironed out, certainly never had any throttle response issues, and so far not bottomed out the rear shock, see recent video of triumph bobber asmr for video of me smashing through town. Current stats on auto trader for sale (2017 oldest year) Bobber (95) Rocket 3 (82) T120 (114) Scrambler 120 (114) Speedmaster (69) Speed Triple 1200 (118) Speed Twin (157) But that includes 900 and 1200 versions) Tiger 1200 (203) I would say the bobber is about average for the number of second hand bikes for sale of this or close to this engine size displacement and a good condition 2017 (single disk front brake) is still fetching around £7,500-8000
I'd buy the rebel over its competition. The DCT wins it for me. Effortless cruising with the automatic transmission. And Japanese reliability. Edit: Maybe not, that fan sounds like my wife's hair dryer. And that tank wobble is rediculous. Where's the quality control?
Dude......the music has gotta go! We tune in to hear the bike sing. You did the same with the MT-09. Sorry mate but I don't care for the music. I wanna hear the bike sing. Didn't hear any portions of the bike on both videos. Music mate....turn it off.
