As an American citizen, Neeves you are welcome to sit at whatever table you’d like to record your videos. Hope the rest of your stay in the States was pleasant and hospitable.

As an American, I'll apologize for the dickhead at 11:00. We're not all like that.

Well done dealing with the rude local Michael 👏 You never missed a beat mate 👍

Hands down the best Tester on the Web.

There's no praise that's too high for Michael Neeves as a motorcycle pundit for his authenticity, knowledge and eloquence. A master of his craft indeed!

@11.11 I would have expected a "have a nice day" greeting.😂

I realize this was at Triumph's launch of these models, but don't forget the range also includes the Speed Twin 900 and 1200's (std & RS), and the 1200 Scramblers (X & XE).  It's just that they got their big revamps in 2025, with the IMU and other advancements commensurate with these Modern Classic models reviewed here.  

From what I can see, those five "new for 2025" models will carry on into '26 unchanged. Even color selections remain.  So, in essence, they were the earliest of the 2026 update plan, just launched a year sooner and to be plated as both 25's & 26's.

I mention this primarily because when you get to the "Which should I buy?" question it's worth remembering that there are additional models in the range to consider.

I own a 2020 Speed Twin 1200, a great bike. I bought this over the T120 for the tubeless tyres, lighter weight and more power. Triumph should listen to customers and stay with the analogue clocks on the Bonneville range.

That’s a surprise Michael, I’ve been reading and watching your articles for probably 30 years. Definitely the best road tester out there. I’m guessing your garage has much more powerful, exotic machines than these in it, so you’re never gonna buy one with your style of riding.
That tells me this is your honest valuable opinion, which I respect.
Think I’ll have another look at the scrambler 900 now then. Cheers .

Typically relaxed, clear & balanced. Great content. Thanks, MN.

This was a GREAT video. Love the format and way the topic was covered.

Police @06:55 coming to arrest you for actually preferring your T Max to any of these, Michael?

Great to see a presenter who doesn't think he's auditioning for a hollywood director.  Nicely measured presentation.  I've had 2017 T100 ( 142,000 Km.)  And now 2022 T120.  The T 120 is the better bike on three counts i)  Lights  ii) Finish iii)  a delicious extra surge on acceleration.   A friend said he saw it as a Gentlemans bike,  " So what are You doing with it?"

I currently ride a 2022 HD FXLRS and a 2012 Tiger 800, I owned both a 2017 T100 and a 22 T120, they were both superb machines and I really miss my  TFC T120 which I  modified into a bad ass bike. The HT 1200 engine is great. The fit and finish for the entire Triumph lineup is second to none as is the paint on any retro and rivals most HD paint jobs which is something The Co. is know for. I'm 63 so grew up idolizing dudes like Steve McQueen, the King of Cool loved his Triumphs and made us dream as kids of one day riding one of these machines cruising down Rt 66 to Pasadena. Can't go wrong with any of these English beauties. Our brothers across The Pond really know how to engineer superb, iconic motorbikes. I have only one gripe, I hate the Micky Mouse mirrors and swapped them out for bar ends before I rode out of the dealership.😂

Thank you, really great info on all Triumph Bonnie’s I personally bought a new 900 speed twin last year and have been thinking what’s next, I still can’t make my mind up although having a T120 looks cool, I think I might also choose the scrambler as I love the look and it’s practically the same bike, which I feel really comfortable riding, but like the off road function, great presentation  and really clear,
Look forward to your next one.

The T120 is a stunning bike, well they all are but for me, the T120 is the pick of the bunch!

I wish they all had tubeless spoked wheels, it is 2026 + of course put a decent horn on them , t 100 for me 😊👍👍

The uplift of the 900 Scrambler to be more like the 1200 is good to see but that T120 is really beautiful

Great reviews as always .
I own a 2025 khaki green Scrambler 900 , and to my eyes i still prefer the more retro styling of the now older model.

I bought a T100 (last of the carburettor) in 2007. It’s still fabulous. All I’ve done to it is add some Norman Hyde exhausts so now sounds as good as it looks.
