2010 Triumph Bonneville Motorcycle reviews

This is my second Triumph and I had a 2005 Speedmaster". I went to the local Triumph dealer open house and rode the Thunderbird and a basic Bonneville (white) which had been ordered with tachometer. I was going to change the handlebars on my Speedmaster but after riding the Bonny, I decided after six years it was time for a different riding position and a new ride. I really loved the Speedmaster (35K including several long trips) and had a trip planned up Northeast. I took the Bonny and did 2,000 miles in a week with one 600+mile day. It's the first bike I've owned including the Speedmaster with no "excepts" as in "I like everything about this bike 'except'". I've been riding 40+years on a variety of bikes and this is the best yet. I've had no problem at 75 all day and I really look forward to riding everyday. I have also test ridden many new bikes the last two yrs, and in my humble opinion, Triumph is the best by far. Two bikes and no breakdowns, etc., just gas, oil and tires for six years. Chain maintenance is easy and the best quality for the price anywhere. This is the best bike I've owned in 40 years of riding. It has great gearing, plenty of power for its weight and it's so easy handling and fun to ride. I am now over heavyweight cruisers. I am Triumph loyal: great bikes and very dependable and I have a great local dealer. I also recently rode the Storm. My initial impression is it's the best cruiser I've ever ridden. It has unbelievable handling and torque. If you haven't ridden a Triumph, you're missing out! Show less
