To counter some of the comments from those stuck in an unhappy life, I just had to say, Well done! There are 2 reasons to watch your review videos: your thoroughness and your personality. Funny story. My wife was walking past me while I was watching this video. Upon hearing your voice and laugh, she stopped and asked, "What on earth are you watching?"

Awesome review good Sir! I've sat on the ST, the T120 and the Thruxton R at our annual motorcycle show a few weeks ago. I know what you mean by the small feel of the ST...I'm about your build. Coming right off my 2013 T100, where my legs are normally at 100 degree bend, on the T120 they felt at about 90 degree bend...much more relaxed. The Thruxton R is getting all the excitement at the shows...can't wait for your review on that beast...not sure I'm ready for such a thing with my 1st year riding anniversary still two months away! P.S.: You must have a word with your continuity checker...when you first got on the bike & drove away, we clearly saw your Knox back protector showing through your Raven leather...but then you had your back pack on rest of the ride ;-)

Great review. I was watching this at work on nightshift and a mate asked about it, now he's hooked on the Captain too. I'm torn between this and the T120.

The more I watch it / still loving it

That exhaust sounds an awful lot like my CTX with that 270 firing interval. I want to hear the 360 :-) Everything you described, how light the bike feels, nimble, zippy, and small is exactly how it feels when I jump on my wife's Bonneville.

Except for my VMAX, the bikes I've had have always had twin gauges, but I do like the way that one looks as well. My 2005 t100, doesn't have any electronics like the newer bikes but I don't mind at all. It's funny how slight changes make the same bike different. Street twin, speed twin, Bonneville. Change a few little changes but all unique. But yes the 1200 is a different animal than the 900. Six speeds, 300 more CC s and about 20 more HP. And a center stand. Thanks Cap Rambunctious.

However, a word of warning. AT the time of making of this review, the street scrambler did not exist. So I was comparing it to the older air cooled 865cc scrambler. If you'd like a comparison with the new street scrambler, see that review that I have done, but I must say that the street scrambler is a lot better than the street twin in my opinion. More fun to ride and feels lighter and is taller so suits my frame better... Thanks again

That's the one! The old air cooled scrambler was the only 270 degree crank and the bonnies were 360... with a smoother sound. But people loved the thump of the 270 so all the new ones are 270 to get that slightly artificial sound... I love it...

love this bike so much, I think it hurts

You're welcome...

I love everything about this bike except the low revving engine, but your review made me want to at least give it a chance. I chose my Street Triple over the 865 air cooled Bonneville because of all the things the old one didn't have that this one now does.

+Michael Keller Yes... It is a very similar handling bike to the Street Triple, but without the power of course, but instead of that you get comfort and classic looks (ish)... Certainly try one... Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Tally Bally Ho!

What options would someone like me, who is 6 foot 3 inches tall have with respect to the Street Twin? Would the bike be an awkward fit?Does the seat have any adjustment for height? Would a t120 seat fit? Even if the Bonneville frame is identical across the product line, the side covers may or may not be work with another seat for practical reasons.

I am fully aware of your issues. I'm 6'1" but with long legs and a short body. For example my legs are the same length as my brother's and he is 6'4". I'd have thought you'd be comfortable enough as I was, but the bench seat that comes with the brat tracker and scrambler inspiration kits are a bit higher so therefore more comfortable and you can get those on their own without paying for the full inspiration kits if you don't want to, but I can say that the brat tracker kit really is a nice combo... I hope the 1200s will be a bit more roomy but I have to wait until March to get my hands on one of those! I hope this helps a bit. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment! Pip pip!

This is the most thorough review of this bike I have seen to date. Just one question - how would you rate this bike for holding 80 on a motorway? It seemed to perform ok in your speed test.

Easy. I had my Thruxton for 2 years and as long as you are used to naked bikes (no wind protection) then it has no issue and is better than my Thruxton was. Hope this helps! Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment! 😊🏍

Nice Review.

I was thinking whilst watching this.... needs clip ons and a small headlight cowl. Oh look, they do that. Jolly good. I love the placement of the pipe on the scrambler, would love a combo of that and the last options. All in satin black, of course. It does seem a bit slow though.

+Southern Fried Excellent points... Yes, I reckon it will do 0-60 in 5 seconds, maybe a little faster. It's a bit quicker than my old Thrusty after all! Maybe the same... Would be very different to Penny, but just as much fun, if not more so? I certainly try one if I were you and able? Thanks for watching chap and ride safely! Pip pip!

Looks very nice, especially with the "scrambler" kit. Now I'd like to hear and feel that motor in person because in the video it looked a tad dull for 900 Twin tbh

+Shepper Stepper It definitely needed the slip ons at least but still had a thrum about town... Also, wait for the 1200s, they should be quite something! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment... TBH!

Nice review. Any clues about how does it handles in twisty B-roads? Especially compared to a Ducati Scrambler...

+kaveiros75 Exceptionally well with more ground clearance. Better than the Ducati, but lower on power.

Captain Rambunctious Better than the Ducati Scrambler? Although it is heavier? Hmmm... this is really interesting...! I don 't mind about its lower power (I am also looking at MotoGuzzi v7ii) as long as it is adequate. I come from owning many years two sport 955 c.c. Triumph tripples. I want to step down to a more enjoyable everyday-anytime bike.

Nice review. Does it get very hot at low speeds? Seems like your legs almost touch the engine. I'm on a tiger XCx and the heat can be unbearable in hot days.

This review is a bit more Rambunctious "over the top" effusiveness than I would express, but when I rode a sample in Ft Worth it is all accurate. I wish I had an excuse to buy this. It is one happy, easy machine. Blandness comes because it is meant to please many different audiences. Most Triumph enthusiasts customize anyway, so the "bland" is almost moot. REALLY a thoroughly pleasant and fun machine that any motorcyclist can get on and ride well immediately. Not much to "get used to". Good Video, Captain!

Does the Rim tape look like it could be taken off or is it clear coated over?

Lovely Bike...totally jealous that i cannot get hold of that, here, in India. Also the exchange rate would definitely kill me. But that is the longest review that i ever watched. Would love to own a bonnie someday. Good review. Thanks.

Bugger. My Tiger is getting nervous. Being a short arse the street twin is really appealing. Thanks for the review Captain.
