Welcome to a very special Triumph Thruxton 900. I go for a ride and review the bike, but this is no ordinary Thruxton 900!
With some unique features and an exhaust that really brings the bike alive to feel like an original cafe racer motorcycle. Along with its British Racing green paint work, this really is a modern retro motorcycle that embodies all of the feeling of a classic bike.

Own a 2011 Black. Rear fender elimination kit. HAGEN shocks progressive fork springs. Brit custom silencers air box elimination with K&N air cleaners. And fly screen. Like the club man Bars can be riden all day feels light to Me at sub five hundred pounds. My other bikes are heavy touring Bikes.. I'm 68 this bike is like a fountain of youth makes me smile. People are very complimentary about its beautiful looks.

Beautiful bike, love the green and brown. Sounds terrific, 900cc is plenty of engine, I think Triumph should have kept a 900 in production.

Glad you think so as well 👍 I think almost the perfect spec for one of these models, that exhaust is just great 😁

I had a 2011 Thruxton 900. Ohlin piggy backs on the rear. Race Tek front cartridges up front. Got the British Customs Air box removal with K&N on the throttle bodies. Twin Arrows like that one. Diablo Red. Gave it to my nephew Christmas 2018. Great review sir!

I first heard the sound of a Triumph in 1962, I believe it was a TT Special so open pipes....I was hooked! Harleys can come and go but there is no sound like an open piped British bike from the sixties. My new Bonneville, much as I love it, just does not have the same sound because of the engine firing order and size. Loved the video!

@redangrevival Жыл бұрын

I agree, the open pipe of a British classic is just a pure naughty sound! So cool. Cheers glad you enjoyed the video

Oh, that's 'The Sexy'. Brooklands Green. Best color Triumph has ever released. Ever. That bar is known as an 'M' bar, and is much more forgiving than the earlier true clip-ons. Those mounted underneath the top tripleclamp. The M-bar is as far as I can go now.

I like what I see here, what a beauty in the classic sense… like a Jaguar E-type or Sophia Loren. You’re right about the sound, it really fits the bikes esthetics rather well. You can’t mount a 65" flat screen to your wall and hook it up to a 15 watts excuse for a soundbar. The sound has to fit the image! Nice one! Cheers, Lupo

@redangrevival Жыл бұрын

haha great analogy! Absolutely right 👍 The perfect spec for this style of bike I think. Cheers

@awfulwarlock91 Жыл бұрын

I went and sat on one of those when they were new. Love the look and color, but I just couldn't get comfortable on it. Went without a bike until 2021 when I bought my Speedmaster. Love the Speedy, but those British Racing Green Thruxtons always catch my eye. When i clicked on this video, I was hoping they were offering this color combo again lol.

You should ride a gen1 Thruxton R. Lovely bike. This one looks like it has 19" wheels as they look large? Great paint scheme in BRG. As you say sounds the business with the de-baffled Arrow exhausts.

Is it still relevant to buy a used triumph bonneville t100 865 (EFI) or should I go for the new 900cc range?

@redangrevival Жыл бұрын

I would say it is still very much relevant yes 👍 However if you want a slightly more polished and smoother ride then the newer model will be better

@TrackStaff404 5 ай бұрын

The 865 is the same as the 900, they just call it a 900

@stevec6427 Жыл бұрын

The older 865cc 360 degree twin sounded so much better than the current 900cc 270 degree motor. I've got the Bonneville SE with Norman Hyde pipes which sound even better than the Arrows. My other bike is better in every way but the Bonneville is just more fun.

Hear hear! Excuse the pun 🥴 They really do sound so much better. Unfortunately due to emission reasons etc... It is hard to make such a great sounds bike these days.

Awesome video! One recommendation I'll share is ALWAYS use the fast idle switch when starting these bikes (fake choke switch). 2 clicks out when cold, 1 click when warm. Not using it at all provides that struggling start like in the video even when it's hot. Bike should fire up instantly and not stumble when starting
