I love my Bobber Black. Every meet I get lots of ppl asking me about it, and just loving it. Sounds great, brakes great, maneuverable at low speed, I can steer it with my knees at higher speed it's easy to maneuver IMO, and so much more awesomeness. Only thing I can see ppl not liking is comfort, and luggage capacity. Im 270lbs 6FT I find its not too bad for comfort 90% of the time. If you wanted comfort why did you get a Bobber IMO. Also the ability to bring stuff with you, again why would you get a Bobber for touring. If you want a great custom looking bike without the headaches how could you not get a Triumph Bobber Black.

LOL, thanks Doc', a rather predictable reply. The reality is, as all other bikers know, is it's a complete fake. From its fake 'rear sprung hub', fake 'hardtail', fake 'points cover', fake 'carbs', fake 'Smiths speedo' and, worst of all fake 'Bobber pretence. A Bobber is supposed to reflect the individuality of the owner/builder. It should reflect the owner's style, engineering skills, vision, etc. You and the other owners of these bikes want people to look at you and think "wow, where did they get the inspiration from?" The reality, as the rest of the motorcycling community knows, is that it's identical to the thousands of other 'Bobbers' coming off Triumph's production line. There's nothing real or individual about it and that totally destroys the whole ethos and concept of what a Bobber actually is. So, sorry, but I stand by my comment. The only people fooled by it are the elderly, kids, and the people who parted with their money, for a mass produced bike from the Far East, pretending to be something it's not

Hi there... enjoyed the vid! I have recently bought one...love it too, mines had the Vance and Hines exhaust dealer upgrade fitted...sounds awesome, although £750 a lot of money....overall a superb bike all round

A great short review. Thanks. I have the Speedmaster (just over 12 months) and there are lots of shared qualities AND faults with these bikes. Of course there’s becoming quite a range of specialist (non Triumph) add-ons available for customising. A guy called Stuart Fillingham on UT deals extensively with these for the Bonneville Triumph range; all very interesting but can be relatively expensive. The suspension is hard and I’m not sure what’s available to help with that. The key thing is the low travel range on the suspension; I bottom out regularly on “B” and side roads, which can spoil the ride. You do have to adjust the riding style a little on sweeping bends and reverse camber roundabouts otherwise the pegs ground out very easily. Servicing and simple chain maintenance can be a chore as there’s no centre stand combined with the very low attachment point for bobbins make the choice of paddock stand a specialist undertaking!! The looks of this and the Speedmaster are great (IMO) but the way the wiring loom is attached by rubber bands to the bars at the front of the bike seems like a short term solution. I also think that both bikes would have looked better with twin clocks like the Thruxton or the new Twin? The single clock is a bit cheap n nasty. BUT even given the above, these are really great and fun bikes that, as you say turn heads wherever you go. Another (but smaller Bobber) to look at is the new CCM Bobber that the guys in Bolton are bringing to us anytime soon. My deposit is down with delivery in the next 12 months!! Hope the above is useful. On re-reading the above, it looks a bit negative. It’s not. The engine is so much fun with plenty of real world grunt and I will never give up my Speedmaster! Yours aye, Alan

Thanks for the info Alan! I had wondered whether an improved rear shock would address the comfort. It’s interesting that the speedmaster suffers the same as the bobber - you can excuse the Bobber Black for being a bit firm as it’s meant to be a bike that handles well, but surely the speedmaster is all about a plush ride. I’d still like to try one out some day though!

I’ve recently won one a 19 plate bobber! The sound when you wind her on is epic! 3rd into 4th and she’s like a wee rocket! Only thing I’m finding hard to adjust to is getting my feet comfortable on the pegs. Only done about 80 miles on it since I’ve had it but switching between the bobber and the mt09 gets some getting used to.

Is like to see this done as a 650 instead of a 1200. My favorite road is the Cherohala Skyway. It’s 59 miles long. Not sure this could make it to the end with its 4000’ climb. My YT icon is a 500 BSA Gold Star with a rigid rear. It was a great scoot and this could be all that that bike was but for range. And what about Triumph’s triple 650? Screaming engine with loads of fun packed in there

Awesome video review as always. Thanks.

140 miles from a full tank of fuel... more than enough from a bike of that nature!

Seen many reviews, not ridden one. Main cons seem to be the tank is too small and that the pegs touch down too easily. I don't like the broad flat bars. Saw some Z bars on a Sportster that I'd love to try on a bike like that.

Awesome! But I wonder how she handles in the farmland/country roads. The city (stop and go) riding experience seems rather enjoyable. How about the ups and downs, long bends, tempting straight-aways, and twisty/curvy roads that need better signs to illustrate them. Not really about "racing". But at enjoyable speeds where the machine is also comfortably handling the workload.

Darnnit! Now you made me want to go & ride the thing which means I'm probably going to want it....thanks, nice review, ride safe - Cape Town, South Africa

I like virtually all the Triumph classics, if I had the money and space maybe a more laid back T120 to complement my Speed Twin. Possibly even a Thruxton, but I'm kinda thinking the Speed Twin with a different seat and some adjustable suspension could do most of what the Thruxton does. Seconds to change a seat over, and a little bit longer tinkering with suspension. Which leads me to that the Bobber is about the only one they'll never sell me on, even with potentially limitless amounts of cash. I guess I just don't get the cruiser position , and no back seat. With limitless cash I'd be more likely to buy the insanely silly 2.5 litre Rocket as compared to a Bobber , just because the Rocket is a bit silly. (still need to buy the lottery ticket !) But I guess some people like Bobbers because otherwise they wouldn't make them :) Plus it'd be boring if we all rode around on exactly the same bike ...

I like the Bobber, but it seems excessively heavy - its dry weight is more than that of the Triumph Tiger 1200 adventure bike!

Probably one of the best looking bikes out there imo.. However I'd just never get one due to the lack of carrying a pillion. Even if they had a relatively uncomfortable option for a pillion just to go for a short ride, I'd get it however no option at all is a deal breaker for me.

This is pretty much my thinking. The only options I consider are trackers, alarms , some "crash" / "dresser" bars, fly screen and luggage options. I almost considered the tyre pressure warning system, but at £220 for the Triumph one, it seemed a bit steep. It does nicely integrate with the clocks on the Speed Twin, unlike tacky after market ones. So I'm pondering this one. Heated grips ? Probably no. Heated gloves look a more flexible option because they'll work on another bike. I'm only into useful or security related extras. If a bike needs more power or braking, best to choose a different bike that does what you want. Engine, performance and braking mods just look way too expensive, and you'll never get anywhere near the money back if you come to trade it in. The faster better braking bike would hold more of it's value for this part as compared to tweaking a lower performing bike. That's not even thinking about insurance who seem to run a mile or ask for silly increases in premiums because of performance mods. All the tarting around with embellished, logo-ised, clutch badges, bullet indicators, and Triumph logo tank bags, and other trinkets just look like a rip off. About the only reason for buying a Triumph top box was it could be keyed to the ignition key, so one less key, but at a price premium. I'm finding the exhausts on my Speed Twin loud enough and sound good to me. I'm not keen on the blacked out section, but it doesn't bother me enough to want to spend £600. Maybe if I become deaf after years of riding without ear plugs , I'll need a louder exhaust pipe, just for me to hear it :-D

The Bobber is a weekend bike. Period. You might get the odd chap that thinks he's hardcore by riding it on his 10 mile daily commute but it's just not that kind of bike. It's posey and we all know it! I rode it and enjoyed it a lot but the tank is too small and after a couple of hours it's too uncomfortable. Triumph dealers and ESPECIALLY their customer service is shite. It's a price we sometimes have to accept for ownership of their 'classic' bikes.

Bob, I've been critical of these and expect to be in the minority, especially compared to those owners desperately trying to justify their purchase.

You shall grow Hipster Beards, wear brown leather jackets, open face helmets and scuffed-up ankle boots. "Then go and sit outside Starbucks all day".
