That original 2019 Speed Twin is the best. That silver tank color. Classic front shocks. E4 exhaust. Easy-to-do tail tidy. And lightweight. The ONLY miss in the design is it should have come standard with those all-brushed exhaust cans. Good stuff, mate.

I own the bike and agree, but it also needs Arton Works dials, and in the US at least, the indicators swapped for something like Motogadget’s blaze discs and/or tens, plus fresh grips, and under bar mirrors. I absolutely love mine…

Nice vídeo. I’m enjoying a lot my new Triumph Scrambler 1200 XE! I’m on the road riding but the taller position of the bike is making my days brighter than ever. The bike performs flawlessly on every terrain and any type or shape of road it rocks. These Bonneville bikes are simply awesome! Rock on !🤘

Thanks fellow islander 😁. Was out on it yesterday …. Yup through the Valley it was sounding lovely . Stay tuned as I will be fitting a Chigee AIO -5 Lite unit to it , hopefully not ruining its classic looks 😂 they are sending me one to review. At some point I intend to put some Nitron rear shocks on too but still trying to get the courage up to ask the boss(wife) if I can spend that kind of money on the bike ! 😂

You made a wise decision not getting the R nine t. I was out on one again yesterday whilst the GS was being serviced and although it's a great bike you need something different and the Triumph 1200 engine is just a joy. I went for the Thruxton RS but still hanker after a Speed twin which fits me better. Happy riding👍

I have a 2023 and like yours it does put off some heat. Not unbearable but noticeable. I do have brake squeal from the rear brake. Hopefully it subsides but if not I will just deal with it until time to replace pads and try a different compound. Nice video. Enjoy the bike.

I never even started my '22 with the cat or baffles in the mufflers. Bought the British Customs Compitition X-pipe with the bike new. Sorced some n.o.s. chrome intermediate pipes off an earlier model from Ebay. I've never even had the fan come on once, accept for the last few seconds after coming off the highway and coming up the drive to the house. Never while I'm "out" riding it. I run Bel-ray 10W50 fully synthetic BigTwin oil. It's specially designed for air cooled Harley Davidson Big Twins that see 300+ degree temps during normal operation. The additive package used in this oil is the absolute best available. It's claimed to lower operating temps in the HD engines 30 degrees. I hammer my bike. Never redline it. Let's just say, I let her eat. I highly recommend getting the restrictions out of the exhaust and intake tract. Going up a tooth on the front sprocket. Ducati Spacers and an ECU flash.

i got it from december of 2022. and it is only pleasure to ride it. i have the brakes problem. my dealer taked a look and cleaned the rotors, but it's still present. i'm happy to see that you solve the problem with EBC pads. i will certainly change them for the next service. i changed my tyres at 6500 kms (about 4000 miles). i met a metzeler dealer at a moto festival, and he tells me to put M9 instead of genuine tyres (racetec RR K3), i will see later if it is a good choice. i don't get Vance & Hines muflers, but i like the sound i got. (we will have noise radars soon 😡). my cons: i feel the bike a little heavy and not easy to manoeuver at stop. the handle bar doesn't turn enough, but it's only my feelings. So i'm very happy with "Mandarine" (that's her name because she's .....orange) you can see her adventures on my channel. thank you for your video and you're welcome in Burgundy if you come back to France.

Hello from Australia...Your review is spot on, I've got a 23' ST1200. In terms of the seat, have a look at Crafton Atelier, I can do all day on the bike and my bum is just fine. If you want to take 10-15% of that heat away, forget the x-pipe and look at verex headers ( from Tasmania) then you don't take the hot gasses under the bike take them straight to the rear of the bike. Oh... I've put YSS piggyback shocks on the rear and nitron cartridges on the front and it's night and day.... totally worth the upgrade. Love the channel too btw

I think it was due to the fact that the 890R’s engine delivers its highest power and torque figures higher up in the rev range. So, it wants to be ridden hard. That was my interpretation anyway. Agree, it was unclear in the video.
