Which included front pegs + brake/shifters, clutch cable, levers, grips, mirrors, K&N style air filter and a bunch of little detail accessories like oil tank cap, fast idle knob, gas cap, etc

I really want to get rid of these basic ass Dunlop D404 cruiser-styled tires though, just as they are rather uninspiring in how they ride. I'm eyeing something a little more my style, like a set or Battlax BT46s.

Hi everyone. I’m 21f completely new to motorcycles. So I’m trynna figure out if starting on a smaller, lightweight model is genuinely the best idea or if I should be considering something slightly bigger. I’ve visited a couple of local Triumph dealers and while they were helpful. I still left feeling unsure because I don’t have much riding knowledge to compare anything properly. I’ve been checking different places online as well, including Alibaba for price references and Facebook Marketplace to see what used models look like in my area. Those sites gave me a rough idea of budgets and features, but they obviously don’t explain how a moto bike behaves in real-world UK traffic or how it feels for someone who hasn’t built riding confidence yet. What I actually want is something light enough for me to handle at slow speeds, manageable in tight spaces, and still enjoyable for short weekend rides with my boyfriend. I’m not looking for huge power or high speed. I just want something that won’t overwhelm me while still giving me room to improve. For anyone who started with a lighter bike, did it genuinely make learning easier, or did you end up wishing you had gone for a slightly stronger first option instead?

Scambler 1200x vs T120 2026 vs Scambler 900

Hi everyone, I’m new here.

I’m 181 cm (5'11") and currently own a HD Street Glide Ultra and a Road Glide. I’m looking for something smaller more veristile for around-town cruising and short trips let say 100km.

I was thinking of getting scambler 900 but after the test ride, new scrambler 900 and 1200 XE .. I loved the power of the 1200 and the look of 900's I didn’t really like the look of the XE, look a bit too tall . I want to purcahse the Triumph that I can keep it for a long time without need to upgrade so much.

Now I’m leaning toward the Scrambler 1200x but no cruise control, then I think of Boneville T120 which could be good to keep for a long time.

Would love to hear some real owner feedback. Thanks
