Loving the frequency of these reviews, always refreshing to mix up the bikes. Great work as always.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

+Ground Dweller Thank you Ground Dweller - appreciate the kind words- TMF

@tokyosmash 5 лет назад

Just wanted to say that your reviews are absolutely fantastic, thank you from the US!

@colindeans5972 5 лет назад

Had a go on one of these the other day, the yellow paint looks so much better in real life and daylight. I can honestly say I've never had as many admiring glances, the bike got a few too ;-)

@dead-beta 7 лет назад

I keep watching your Street Cup videos - I've just passed my Mod2 (23/08/17) and fell in love with this bike after seeing one in a Dealer. My head wants a Street Triple but my heart wants a Street Cup! I guess I could get both eventually! Loving your in depth reviews and long term feedback. You sir, earned another Subscriber!

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Excellent - thanks Graeme and welcome along!

@ausingtv 6 лет назад

I want one. Love the looks and just what I'm after for the road

@Jamrockcrowned85 7 лет назад

For every test ride you should do the walk around at a local pub and/or venue showing points of interest in the respective locations. Bang up review as usual! Love the content!

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Thank you Jamrockcrowned85, appreciate the kind words (and suggestion!).....

@steveinskip4897 7 лет назад

Nice one! Love the way Triumph have improved their detailing with the new bikes. The silencers look really good.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Yes they really have upped their game with all the new Bonnies haven't they, lovely finish on these machines...

@andrewcassarwheelan7315 6 лет назад

Love that yellow and silver paint scheme:) and those bar end mirrors ! :)

@andyblackburn2068 7 лет назад

" These are the sort of roads that this little bike loves " made me smile . It's 900cc and is now classed as a small bike. I remember my Zed being "king of Road" at 900 cc How times change !

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Yeah I know, I keep referring to it as a "little" bike I think because it has the lowest seat height of any bike I've ridden to date and it erroneously makes me think it's small....of course 900cc ain't small!

@TraneFrancks 7 лет назад

Really nice review. Love the sound of these engines. The not-extreme sport-ish seating position overall makes this just a super friendly offering. Me want.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

+Trane Francks Yes they do sound great don't they (all the Bonnies)....

@scottyg9167 6 лет назад

Hello there! Just thought I'd write a quick note to say Hi and commend you on a nice review. So nice, in fact, that it contributed to my taking the plunge yesterday and buying one of these in the silver and black edition. It's a fantastic machine. I'm not exactly an expert rider, so the ease of handling of this, coupled with its versatility convinced me it was a good choice as a first "big" bike (something of a misnomer, indeed). Rode back to the San Francisco Bay Area from out in Sacramento yesterday with a friend, and I must say, after my initial nervousness, it was a great day! So thanks for the help!

@TheMissendenFlyer 6 лет назад

Lovely - I love that part of the world - I've only driven in a car from San Francisco to Sacramento, would be lovely on a bike I imagine....

@scottyg9167 6 лет назад

TheMissendenFlyer Indeed it is a nice drive - as long as you stay off of I-80 during holiday traffic! We took the smaller CA Hwy12 through the Delta farm country instead. Thoroughly enjoyable! Cheers

@wickedcoolname5756 6 лет назад

Scotty G Hey, I realize this is six months old, but if you happen to see this I was wondering if you can give us an update now that you've had the bike for a while. I live in Massachusetts and there is a Triumph dealer up in NH that I'll be buying my next bike from. I love the looks of this bike. How's it been treating you?

@deanharris7100 7 лет назад

Another good vid from the MissendenReviewer.👍

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Thanks RD!

@MrJyuuki 7 лет назад

Great review as always TMF. Would love to see you do reviews for the new MT09 and Z900!

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

+Vincent Lim Cheers Vincent - and I'm working on it!

@malcolmpritchard4882 7 лет назад

Really like the street cup colour scheme is ace had a sit on one at the bobber launch at my local triumph dealers great review as always 👍

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Thank you Malcolm, and yes the yellow scheme really works on this bike doesn't it...

@danielwhittemore7089 7 лет назад

An enjoyable watch and great bike. You were in my neck of the woods again and practically rode past my house! You should try Super Sausage next time.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

+Daniel Whittemore I have since been back to the Super Sausage - excellent burger I must say!

@dougie1325 7 лет назад

Tell Triumph they need to give you a go on the Bobber. I'm keen to see your feedback on that one TMF. I always enjoy your reviews.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Well I have asked Dougie, and that's the next bike after this one ;0)

@dougie1325 7 лет назад

Good man, I'm looking forward to this one. Box of popcorn is ready.

@decimusmaximus9912 7 лет назад

Love this! Was looking into this just yesterday! Just a question; what format do you shoot in? 4K or 1080p and what FPS?

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

+Decimus Maximus 1080p @ 60fps

@stevenhill6214 7 лет назад

I have watched a few of your videos in the past nine months or so, they are in a totally different class compared to the journo stuff and I am impressed with the comprehensive info and easy going style of presentation. Your review of the street twin last year (along with Captain R's) helped me make up my mind to buy one. The street cup would suit me (short bloke) and if I had any spare cash I would probably be looking at buying one, presumably with a multi-bike policy.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Very kind of you to say so Steve - appreciated. Glad you've found my efforts of use.....how's the Street Twin panning out?

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Good stuff...I might have to have a ride over there myself then! Cheers - TMF

@anroadking 7 лет назад

Looks like a nice bike, but those bars are actually called Ace Bars, Clip-ons actually, err, clip-on to the top of the fork leg and are usually a lot lower. I know, I know, I'm being pedantic but I'm old enough to remember the time when people used to fit Ace bars to all sorts of humble bikes in an attempt to emulate Sheene !!!!

@harrymc9263 7 лет назад

ace bars I haven't heard that for years. it put a smile on a old farts face lol

@brando6BL 7 лет назад

Aah, ace bars! First pair I saw was clamped onto an Enfield Crusader Sport 250, which I used to tootle around the lanes when I lived in W. Yorkshire, nearly doubled up. 1968 was the date I obtained the RE. Clip-on bars should correctly be accompanied by rear-set footrests or there is little point in fitting them.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Yes you are quite right Adrian, someone else mentioned that to me a while back and I should have been more accurate!

@harrymc9263 7 лет назад

First time I can remember hearing of them was a friend had them on a yamaha rd200 in 1977. The Enfield crusader my dad got one a few years ago and did a nice restoration on it. It had 2 dents in the top of the tank cause the bars kept hitting it

@Womanwolfrider 7 лет назад

You're a lucky boy riding these fabulous bikes😊

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

I am indeed :0)

@jamespjcoombes 7 лет назад

Excellent review. I love those details on these bikes. I am torn between this, the Thruxton r or BMW r nine T racer i guess the reason for going for one of the latter two is just pure speed? Style and riding position they are pretty similar aren't they?

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Err, no. The two Triumphs have similarly relaxed riding positions, the BMW is much more extreme. You need to try them out really to decide which you prefer (very much a personal preference thing). Thanks for the kind words - TMF

@antonoat 7 лет назад

Some of the comments are very amusing as always! Another excellent, informative review. I'm curious, how does one come to have a long term loan bike, is it a perk of doing reviews? Excellent and impartial reviews are your forte TMF, keep it up please! cheers tony

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Hi Tony.....and yes, those nice folks at Triumph got in touch and made the bikes available to me....free PR for them and content for me...win/win I call it! Needless to say they don't tell me what to say or pay me in any way, so I'm not duty bound to say nice things if I think the bikes are pants (like the Explorer for example!!).... :0)

@antonoat 7 лет назад

Fair play, I don't know anyone who does better bike reviews, so I'd suggest you are the man! cheers

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

You are very kind!

@spotty_cat26 7 лет назад

What a cool little bike. I think Triumph are on a roll with their range of bikes available at the moment. I am, however still waiting for your new Street Triple 765 test ride. Did you finish the video outside the Three Cups pub by coincidence or good planning??

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

+SpottyCat666 I didn't even see that! Well spotted!!!

@spetersonmusic 7 лет назад

Interesting bikes from Triumph for these; sort of naked retro cruise about bikes. Lots of style there; not my favorite look but great review!

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Cheers as ever Scott, and I'm with you, this one wasn't top of my list either in the looks department, but I must say it's kind of grown on me more than I thought it would....the yellow paint work is top notch (and even Mrs Flyer loves it!)....

@stardustdreamfactory1947 7 лет назад

Still impressed of my memories of 1976-1978 Tigers and Bonnevilles (owned by acquaintances) when I was going through a Honda CB350 and a CB750 back to back. Nothing wrong with the Hondas but the Triumphs had memorable positive character. Still dream of them due to my excellent experiences.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Well this one continues the tradition and is full of character largely thanks to that engine.....thanks for stopping by - TMF

@andrew675 4 года назад

Like the look of this bike. Looked up eBay to see how much they are going for and the first one I looked at was this exact bike!! Few mods on it now, straight bars and aftermarket exhausts

@TheMissendenFlyer 4 года назад

Cool! How much was it up for?

@andrew675 4 года назад

£6495 in Staffordshire Triumph. I’ve always fancied one. Would look good next to my street triple and tiger 800!! 😁

@chrisbaker121924 4 года назад

Torn between a street cup and a street twin. I love the looks of both but prefer having twin clocks. I like a neutral seating/hand position, I sat on thruxton and found it much too aggressive for me. The street twin felt comfortable. Haven’t yet sat on a street cup. But what is your opinion on the comparison, having sat on a street twin and a thruxton as comparison. Thanks!

@TheMissendenFlyer 4 года назад

Street Twin is the way to go!

@Branchofzion 7 лет назад

Looking forward to your long term review. I've heard nothing but good things but I'm interested to know what's it's like over a bit of time and what other things you can find out.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Stay tuned then Kaprina, all will be revealed over the coming days/weeks on this one! Oh and a thousand thanks for watching, I have so few female viewers it makes you a very special person!!

@Branchofzion 7 лет назад

TheMissendenFlyer I've seen most of your reviews. I appreciate how comprehensive they are. I look forward to the review.

@lomate1963 7 лет назад

Hi dude could you do more food reviews too as we are always looking for a decent places to go our selves and the TMF good pub guide could be another string to the bow mate 🍴 great review as always 🏍

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

I'm liking that idea! Perhaps I could specialise in sausage and mash.....

@UnknownProdrive 7 лет назад

TheMissendenFlyer I've heard it all now. As if you haven't put out there enough varied content. The Hairy Bikers this is not. Thank God.

@jackchristodoulou197 5 лет назад

I had a Bonneville T120 still don’t know why I sold it best bike I have ever ridden, now looking at a street cup, how did you find the riding position after a while was the back and shoulders getting a bit sore or was it very comfortable

@TheMissendenFlyer 5 лет назад

It looks more extreme than it is - the riding position is very comfortable...

@tinks43 7 лет назад

Yay another loaner FOC 😀

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

yay!!

@naturalforlife6741 7 лет назад

I put some Street Triple bars on my 2012 standard and a 1"riser with a 1" pull back and it is perfect for me.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

What on a 2012 Bonnie you mean???

@naturalforlife6741 7 лет назад

Handle bars from a Street Triple.

@hurleyflyer8355 7 лет назад

Nice looking bike and it's British of course . Thanks for the walk round and showing her off .

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

My pleasure HF - more to come!

@erikarneberg11 4 года назад

Hurley flyer I’m pretty sure it’s made in Malaysia...

@GrumpyGarry121 7 лет назад

Three things to look out for on a bike, how it looks, how it feels and how it sounds. A lot of manufacturers ignore the sound and leave it to the aftermarket pipes but triumph seems to be making a real effort to get the sound right too. Well done triumph, when's the boober review coming?

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Yes agreed - sound is so important isn't it, and probably not thaaat hard for manufacturers to get right. The Bobber is the next long termer after this one....stay tuned...:0)

@TrustyZ900 Год назад

Boober?

@MrVinnyh 7 лет назад

Looks a great fun bike to ride, its about time that some Motorcycle manufactures make lower seat height for the shorter riders, and making them ride cruisers. Do like the colour, the A5 is poorly maintained from Towcester down towards Milton Keynes, look forward to your living with Street Cup updates

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

+vince halls Cheers Vince - stay tuned!

@robinmunro669 7 лет назад

As always sir another really good review. Now is it me, or are there really too many Triumphs using the same basics on far too many variations of the same bike? In 2010 I had the Triumph Bonnie 900 which I absolutely loved, I then changed that in 2013 for one of the first Honda CB1100 new retro style bikes, again which was a great bike, although to be honest, very......mmmmmm, dull, sorry Honda. I now am the very proud owner of a 2016 Ducati Diavel, which is to me just an absolutely fantastic bike. (yes I did see your video from the USA) , I go camping, touring , rides out, everything. Current mileage is over 8k, which is probably the point........it does everything, even track days apparently, which I don't. keep up the good work sir. Robin.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Thanks for the comments Robin - well I guess Triumph have found a winning formula in these retro bikes and they sell by the bucket load, as a business, why wouldn't you!! In the main I'm with you though and tend to prefer non-retro bikes that still look like motorbikes.....which is why I'm so keen to try the new Street Triple for example ;0) All the best and be safe on that beast of a Ducati!

@robinmunro669 7 лет назад

Thanks for your prompt reply, and yes...you can't deny the fact that they are currently onto a fantastic range of bikes, and long may it last. But thank you for getting the jist of my comment, ride safe sir.

@Vazza72 6 лет назад

Hi Mr Flyer I currently own a 765 Street Triple - which I absolutely love. It’s also the most comfy bike I’ve ever owned, the riding position works perfectly for me. Anyhow I’m looking to change it for one of the “ modern classic” range. And wondered in your opinion, is this model is the nearest to the 765 triple in terms of riding position. Or if not which do you think is thanks?

@TheMissendenFlyer 6 лет назад

None of the classic bikes feel like a Street Triple - they are much more upright with your legs at a right angle rather than tucked and canted forward like a Street Triple...

@Vazza72 6 лет назад

Thanks for the reply 👍🏻

@colindeans5972 5 лет назад

Simon , did you make the switch? I've just sold my Street Triple and am thinking modern classic too.

@Vazza72 5 лет назад

Colin Deans Hi Colin, no I haven’t as of yet. I’ m gonna hang on for now as I’m really hoping that Triumph bring out the “Speed Twin” (as rumoured) As that’s the one that I think would - look & ride best for me 👍🏻

@colindeans5972 5 лет назад

Thanks, think I'm regretting selling my 765R

@kenmorrison1725 7 лет назад

even though i have a beard I'm not a big fan of this type of bike. Cracking review as always though.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

....is your beard immaculately trimmed and do you have slicked back hair, tattoo's, checked shirts and jeans with turn ups??? If not, that's your issue ;0) ...Thanks for the kind words and for watching - all the best - TMF

@UnknownProdrive 7 лет назад

TheMissendenFlyer Love the hipster jibe. Triggered. You wouldn't want one next to you in a trench before you go over the top. Or before you get out of the chopper.

@chriscunha3246 6 лет назад

i recently got rid of my street triple bc it was a tad too forward for me and i found my nads were just killing me afterwards as well as during the ride. i am looking into either the street cup or maybe the street twin. which in your opinion feels more similar to the street triple? thanks for any responses guys!!

@TheMissendenFlyer 6 лет назад

Hi Chris - the street Cup has a more extreme riding position and the street twin is much more upright, neither is much like the street triple. Thanks for watching - TMF

@chriscunha3246 6 лет назад

wow i got a reply from both you and Capt. Rambunctious!!!! Damn you brits are polite people LOL thanks and yeah to be perfectly honest i feel deep down inside im most likely to take the money from the sale of my 2015 street triple and use it as a down pymnt on a 2018 model LOL i hear the engine has been improved if that was even possible!! cheers

@gunton21 7 лет назад

As always great review, bit to cramped for me, but looks lovely and I'm sure they'll sell like hot cakes.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

I'm sure they will....I reckon (based on a survey of my Mrs and 2 daughters) they'll sell well to the ladies too......

@The33JAYJAY 7 лет назад

Love the colour and finish of the bike. Some nasty potholes on those roads. When you say clip on bars what does that mean as I haven't heard that expression before.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Well these aren't technically "clip ons" - clip ons are the part handle bars that literally grip the top of the forks rather than having a full set of handlebars (most sports bikes have them)....

@Velosirraton 7 лет назад

This bike is amazing it's a 900cc but it has an incredible mileage compared to 250cc bikes, the Services intervals are every 10.000 miles, you have peak torque at 3000 RPM, it has good electronics, and a great style. This bike is easily one of the best for the street

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

It's certainly built for "real world" riding and I like that about all the Bonnevilles.....thanks for watching - TMF

@kleinbottled79 6 лет назад

TMF you always tell me everything I want to know. Please give lessons to the others on which talking points to cover. Thanks.

@TheMissendenFlyer 6 лет назад

Very kind sir!

@marcr660907 7 лет назад

Thanks again for your initial thoughts TMF, I'm not sure I get the appeal of this version of the Street Twin when you could get the Thruxton.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Well it's a smaller, lighter, cheaper, easier to ride version.....Mrs TMF loves it!

@marcr660907 7 лет назад

I take your point, I was thinking more from my own perspective as I'm currently considering a bike in this sort of style. I'm just waiting to see the BMW in the flesh, it hasn't reached our shores yet. Your review put a hold on my Thruxton order! Does your Mrs also ride TMF?

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

No but I'm working on it!

@steffydog 7 лет назад

Another quality video, edit, commentary and scenic tour. Can't say that she's for me, bar I like the colour, is it racing yellow, looks a tad orange?

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Thank you Steffydog1 - by the way I'm intrigued by your name, what's it all about??

@steffydog 7 лет назад

TheMissendenFlyer: I'm a Steve, years ago there were three Steves at my place of work, so we had Steve, Stephen and I was Steff/steffy, last in! We used to go to Romford dogs, so steffy became Steffydog, that's it :)

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Makes complete sense, if a little disappointing, as I thought for a moment you may be a female viewer.......bugger....

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

I didn't say I wanted to marry you!

@mikefrancais 7 лет назад

I am 5 foot seven tall and was wondering about the ergonomics for me. I think you've answered my questions! Excellent review for real world riding. But why are you riding on the wrong side of the road?!

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

At 5'7" you'll easily be able to handle the Street Cup, it's the lowest bike I've ridden to date I reckon (and it feels great!)....and that's the right side of the road by the way....

@RamboMT1 7 лет назад

What a nice surprise! Looking forward to seeing if your thoughts tally with mine - I have a yellow Cup too.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Yes that avatar looks familiar! How long have you had it? What do you make of it so far???

@RamboMT1 7 лет назад

TheMissendenFlyer it was my first bike and I love the fact that it's a safe and easy height for a new rider. I also have a Tiger XC which is much more flickable but more awkward at low speeds because of the height and weight. Seating position is very comfy, engine strong enough and sounds amazing. The only thing I am wary about is bends at high speed, i.e. fast dual carriageways or motorways, where it feels heavy and reluctant to turn in. Probably just a matter of practice and confidence.

@RamboMT1 7 лет назад

Should have added the clutch and gear changes are fantastic. I've had it ten weeks and I'm 700 miles in.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

So I take it she's run in now and had the first service?

@RamboMT1 7 лет назад

TheMissendenFlyer yes, she's running well. It's funny I didn't think anything was unusual about the size or the riding position, then I got the Tiger and put 300 miles on it. Yesterday back on the Street Cup and the riding position suddenly seemed tucked up, as you say. But it is comfy and I love the way it pulls from low down. On the Tiger I find I'm changing up as quickly as possible, whereas the Bonnie just pulls strongly and is in no rush to change up.

@Clint_the_Audio-Photo_Guy 6 лет назад

I'm intrigued. 6' 1" tall 200lbs, but I still might get one.

@TheMissendenFlyer 6 лет назад

They are lovely machines....

@wickedcoolname5756 6 лет назад

Clint the Audio Guy I'm 6 ft and about 20 pounds heavier and I was wondering how I'd fit. Personally, I love the styling and really love the price.

@chrisdigital 2 года назад

Got one used coming my way. Only 1k miles.

@TheMissendenFlyer 2 года назад

Congratulations!

@wickedcoolname5756 6 лет назад

Nice looking bike and one of the least expensive in the Triumph line up, at least in my neck of the woods. I have to stop watching these videos! Every time I watch another review I change my mind again. I'm really leaning towards the T-120, but the Bobber Black is amazingly beautiful to my eye. But then I'm really loving the new Speedmaster. Yet again, this bike looks nice and it's much cheaper. There will be snow falling and riding season will be over by the time I make up my mind!

@TheMissendenFlyer 6 лет назад

A good problem to have though eh?

@wickedcoolname5756 6 лет назад

TheMissendenFlyer That's the truth. You know you're living in good times when there are almost too many beautiful motorcycles!

@BritishBoy1971 7 лет назад

Nice one! :-)

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Thank you...

@chrislegget9125 7 лет назад

What do you think is better? The street cup or the new scrambler?

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

+Chris Well I've not tried the scrambler yet so I'll have to let you know on that one!

@chrislegget9125 7 лет назад

Thanks anyway!

@JLchevz 7 лет назад

not for everyone but still a lovely piece of bike

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Agreed....

@cliverichardson1344 7 лет назад

Good vid review as ever but have to ask why when you slow down do you not blip the throttle and drop a gear which is the correct way to ride. Blipping the throttle on change down dose a couple of things it matches wheel and engine speed to take load off the transmission, it also keeps the machine stable and under power which makes braking safer, as for turning on a freewheel that is absolute no no. I have to ask is this the way you were trained, is it the way all riders are trained these days. If it is the way riders are trained today i would suggest the instructors need retraining because it is very bad practise. Please bear in mind you are not the only You tuber guilty of this so please do not take this personaly. Any way whinge over like your reviews keep them coming.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Thanks for the comment Clive, well let's put it this way, I wasn't trained to blip the throttle on downshifts. But I was trained how to spell and use grammar :0P There we're quits....all the best - TMF :0)

@cliverichardson1344 7 лет назад

Yeah me grammar always was poo.

@cliverichardson1344 7 лет назад

Not messing with MF just curious as to why there was no throttle blip on down change. His reply indicates to me that the trainers need training!

@dvwdfrd 6 лет назад

check the heated grips comment - Triumph say they arent compatible with those drop Cup handlebars

@TheMissendenFlyer 6 лет назад

Thanks for the clarification....

@johngreenaway5736 7 лет назад

Like the looks, but sounded a bit too quiet. Another enjoyable review BTW.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Thanks John...

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

...do they have pipes for this puppy then Arne???

@JLOSTAFF1 7 лет назад

This bike not really up my street or my cup of tea I'm afraid. (See what I did there?) At 6' 1" sounds as though I'd struggle with it for comfort. Kind regards, Jon.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Very good, very very good.....

@ewanoffshore 7 лет назад

Great video, that's a lovely bike TMF. I do wish Triumph were being more technically innovative tho, rather than regurgitating another undeniable money maker. There's only so much old rope people will exchange money for...

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Well it seems to be working for them so far - the more models the better as far as I'm concerned. Would like to see some new sports bikes though....or even a Sprint replacement (an actual sport tourer!).....

@korewest 7 лет назад

I would enjoy a look at new sport tourer from Triumph as well! Currently the only one floating around in my mind is the r1200rs. I didn't know the name of the Triumph parked at my work looking like a strange gsxr until you mentioned it just then

@WyreForestBiker 7 лет назад

Don't quite understand that view .. This is of course one of a new range of updated Bonnevilles and there is only so much you can do with a heritage design . Triumph are less guilty of selling " old rope" than most of the Japanese opposition IMO let alone the Italian /German and obviously American ones !! Before Yamaha blatantly copied Triumph with there Triple engine range they were selling midrange bikes with engines based on the fazer/thundercat from 1996 !!!! Honda and Suzuki were getting away with it too.

@ewanoffshore 7 лет назад

david jay You said it yourself - there is only so much you can do with a heritage design. I want to see new designs, not another regurgitated version of the same old thing. I agree all manufacturers are guilty of this, would love to see more brand new models from Triumph.

@WyreForestBiker 7 лет назад

By "new designs" do you mean new market sectors ? ... they already cover most and have new/updated bikes in many of them ..new street triple / tiger800 / Bonneville range. They could do with a new big tourer and the tiger explorer is also due an update but I don't think either of these sectors are as profitable .

Only commenting to see if you can view it TMF? 1st by the way! How do I private message you, like you asked. Can't see an obvious way to do it! Doh

Think it might be necessary for us both to have Google+ accounts....but embarrassingly I'm not sure....you on Twitter?

@UnknownProdrive 7 лет назад

TheMissendenFlyer Google+ but not Twitter that's a terrifying thought. I resisted Facebook (Lifeinvader) for as long as possible!

Triumph do these type of bikes so well. That steak and kidney pie washed down by 10 pints of guinness at lunch certainly helped the gear changes

How on earth do you get these long term bikes all the time? How much £££ are you spending with them that makes them give you these bikes!!

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

Hehe, well I'm not sure it works like that - they know I'm a fan and I have 22K others who watch my videos (that's more than the circulation of any UK biking magazine bar MCN), it's very targeted, a marketing mans dream! .....I love riding 'em and it gives me content so I'd say that's a classic "win/win".....

@FuzzyScaredyCat 7 лет назад

Yes, I'd like some of that win too :D

Your Panigale must be gathering dust.

@TheMissendenFlyer 7 лет назад

+Alex Morgan certainly not - she gets a run out at least once a week, I like to make sure all my bikes are ridden regularly I don't think it does them any good to leave them gathering dust...
