I'm going to book mark this and watch it later.

I think the majority of us are all on the same page that we love motorcycles regardless of brands.

I considered a Harley before I bought my Triumph but ultimately Triumph won me over.

 

I owned a sportster 1200 before my 1200 speedmaster.

And though I loved my sporster, and enjoyed it a lot there is no practical concept, apart of pure personal subjective "style" considerations, where the triumph does not outstand the harley.

If living in northamerica I guess the wider service options are a clear advantage for Harley Davidson. But I do live in Europe, so... not even that. And my sportster needed in the first six months more "servicing" than my speedmaster in the four years it has been with me. With same level of usage.

There are some points I think not exact in that testing video.

First af all, speaking about "sportster roughness". It is basically false. The point is the bonnevilles include a traction control system and driving modes. But if you put the bike in sport mode and disable the traction control... you will notice the basic strenght in the triumph parallel 1200 is even more noticeable than in the sportster.

And I would say ridiculous that point of "not sure if traction control is good". If you never notice it, it means it is not acting. If you notice it... then good to exist. I do not get the point on consider
