Love your new used Triumph, congratulations! Plus finding this jewel with the luggage bits is awesome. Me, I'm still dwindling over the out-the-door price with the dealer who is imprisoning the Moto Guzzi I'm after. Enjoy that bike, can't see how you can't. Chapeau!
I posted my last comment in the middle of watching your video & lo & behold you've got a new bike. Well done Will , enjoy your new machine ( lovely bike) 👍👍
The right decision Willie! I have a T120 (not black) and I love it. Twin disks, six speed box and a relaxed torque laden engine make for a great multi purpose machine; enjoy!
I bought a T120 Black (Gold line) for exactly the same reasons as yourself. The 900 was a brilliant bike to ride but not on duel carriageways. It felt as though I would loose all of my teeth. The T120 is superb and will probably be my forever bike. Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoy mine.👍
The T120 is a 'better' bike. I owned a Street Twin 900 and loved it, but it ran out of puff quickly. The 1200 engine is brilliant and the 6th gear helps.
Haha good man, you know it makes sense lol I absolutely love my T120 and I think you made the right decision for longer journeys with the 6 speed box. I don't think it is so much the extra power, for me, it's the extra torque that really makes the difference for the overtakes and the pull out of bends it makes all the difference. Persoanlly I prefer the chrome and polished alloy but that is a personal preference but it looks like you found a really nice clean example so all the best with it.
Stonking bike I've been looking at these and I think it is going to have to be done in the new year when I too move house , I will watch with interest until then to see how you go with yours 😉👍
Personally would've got a '22 onwards for the alloy wheels for quicker steering and with the lighter engine mods to spin up quicker - always needed that 7kg diet.
❤ Got the black t120 in grey. Bought it 2 weeks ago. Came from royal enfield classic 350 and interceptor. New bike amazing. Only complaint is that it naturally wants to be in 2nd at 30mph. Interceptor was in 3rd and as such less snatchy throttle. Been keeping it in rain on commute. The power is addictive though. Does everything exceedingly well and overall very pleased.
Well well well 2 Wheeled ( she's a keeper ) Willie l didn't see that one coming, she is a stunner but l really thought the Scrambler would be your choice if not the T100 because you were talking about one a little time ago. Nice one bud take care 👍
I like the T120 chrome version. With the old tank branding. Oh I watched more and you already bought one. My big question on your new bike is can you fit it with a saree guard if Triumph sells them? haha I just checked and Triumph makes them.
Congratulations! I have never climbed on my T120 without smiling. It does everything I would want it to and I a lot more flexible than some give it credit for, but like many bikes it does need a little time to get used it it IMHO
Love freddie but honestly who treats a bike Iike that! Its a bike not a submarine. Cant believe he's shocked hes killed his bike. Iv got a 2001 790cc bonnie and a 2021 speedmaster. Other half has a t120 2022 black hes got the brown seat as standard and i got him to get the king and queen seat. Which is mega for 2 up. I like it but it honestly the t100 is my fave with the added extra of cruise control. That 900 engine is to me triumphs finest hour. I had the street twin for a year. And it was brilliant but comfort wise not so good as t120 and t100. Youve made the right choice for you. Looking forward to more content in the future. Ps. Honestly the 790cc bonnie is the best of all. Carbs and all that. 👍
I do agree the 900cc engine is amazing...I almost bought the T100 but liked the extra torque on the T120 discounted the street twin as that was definitely too small...Ride safe 🙏
Congratulations on the beautiful new bike. My local Triumph/Enfield dealer still has a ‘22 T100 in Meriden Blue and Tangerine. If I was in the market, it would be mine. And I know it’s not a thing over there, but happy Thanksgiving.
Hi buddy its not blonde its grey lol. I would have set fire to Freddies bike lol. I see that George is back with us 😂😂I like both the T100 very nice but the T120 more power and smother ride . Thanks for the stream 👍👍👍
Congratulations Willie. it's a corker! My guess (Tenere 700) was way off😂 At least this means I won't have the worry of a Sari guard/Barbecue griddle I have no idea what to do with 🤭. 1st prize - Sari Guard 2nd prize- two Sari Guards 3rd prize - a dozen Sari Guards
@@2wheeledwillie395 Not ordered yet Willie - not made my mind up. Kelly and I need to road test one first. My Classic 350 has done 1800 miles now and it gets better every mile. Not sure if I'm ready for running another one in 🤔😂
I would go for the T120 for you you definitely need a 6th gear especially on that 😊😊 Keeper ……. Come on 😂😂😂 Wouldn’t be you if you didn’t swap it at least we get to see all the current bikes when we follow you Willie 😊😊 a standard T120 Yesss well done love it It’s only temporary yes black with brown gorgeous
If you take the T100 you will always wish you had taken the T120 - Don't forget I have reviewed 2 of the T120 Black models on the channel so far, and I found them a tad small under me, the T100 might just be even smaller! 🤣
I know it’s a month old now, but either the Thruxton 1200 RS or the Speed Twin 1200. That’s the dilemma I’m caught in the middle of. Oh, or a nice reliable KTM 1290 Super Duke R 😂
Hey Bob I don't think you can judge Triumph on Freddies bike!! It was a 13 year old categorised bike that he abused and neglected!!(through his own admission) ...I think it's gonna be a long wait for the RE Classic 650 buddy, definitely not in the next 12 months
Just noticed the name of the channel. Being 6’4”, I’m surprised you didn’t name it ‘big willie’ 😂 Yes I’m very childish. I was born in the late 60’s, and raised on Carry On films and Benny Hill. 😂
Lol! 😂😂 A lot of my friends do actually call me big Willie 🙃 I was called it at school as there was anothe(shorter) Will in my class and its kind of stuck throughout my life! So when I started my RU-vid channel my first thought was to call it "Big Willie rides again" ...just wasn't sure how thar would go down! 😂😂😂😂
