Triumph Bonneville T120
Quick take

"A comfortable, confidence-inspiring classic that’s easy to live with — smooth, stable, and ideal for long days in the saddle"

Personal notes

This bike stands out for comfort Compared to a previous 900 Hornet, it’s a bigger bike, but it actually feels easier to ride thanks to its lower centre of gravity and road positioning It’s one of those bikes that doesn’t fight your body — it supports it. The seating position makes a noticeable difference, especially for longer rides or if you deal with things like back, hip, or nerve discomfort Once you adjust to the size, it feels incredibly natural and easy to manoeuvre

What I loved
  • Exceptionally comfortable — easy to ride all day
  • Great seating position, especially for back and hip comfort
  • Helped with sciatica and joint discomfort
  • Relaxed and natural riding feel
  • Stable and planted on the road
What felt challenging
  • Larger bike compared to previous (900cc Honda Hornet)
  • Initial adjustment to size
Who this bike suits
  • Riders prioritising comfort and all-day rideability
  • Those wanting a stable, confidence-inspiring larger bike
  • Riders dealing with back, hip, or joint discomfort
  • Commuters and tourers
Who it might not suit
  • Riders wanting something lightweight and ultra nimble
  • Those looking for aggressive or sporty performance
