    Hi everybody. I'm Santo, from Prato (PO) in Italy, 57 years old (yes, 68 is my birth year) and i've just bought my first Triumph, a (little) used Bonneville T120 2025 in jet black suite. I'm a total newbie with this bike, so any info will be really appreciated.

    I'm taking it in change of my Royal Enfield Meteor 350 that i bought new in 2022 and that i've ride for 57000 Km. It has been a great bike, but I fell literally in love with the Bonnie, and caught the occasion to realize a dream.

    In my garage there is also a Piaggio Vespa PX 150, that i'm planning to sell shortly.

    Hope to enjoy your company. Have a good day everybody

    Thanks everybody.
    The bike is still at the dealer, 200 km from my house, and I've planned to go to get her on Friday 13 .
    While waiting I bought the Beeline Moto II GPS, a support to bolt it on the steering clamp, the original Triumph central stand and tank rubber pad, the engine crash bars from Motone, a set of GIVI S312 aux lights to mount on these, an original (but used) radiator grille, two helmet locks from Motone too, a small magnetic tank bag, and a pair of locks for the leather bags left from the previous owner.

    (I hope nothing will delay my route, or I'll risk to end the money buying stuff and don't have spare for the gasoline...:joy::joy::joy:)

    @PanDemonio68 Welcome to the family. Lovely Bonnie. And one of the favourite colours here in the family. Thanks for the great picture. Its always great when you have a dream come to being. Ride and enjoy the great bike. Not that the other machines are any less desirable.

    Welcome from the US! Lovely bike! It looks like a nice [engine power] upgrade from a 350, no? It should save a few gear shifts with the extra power! I also like the generous windscreen. I have a Trophy SE with the electric windscreen that is my favorite feature vs my Sprint GT with a short windscreen.

    You certainly live in a country with beautiful scenery! Do you get to the Dolomites with the bike? If so, send photos! As you can see from my cover shot, I am a huge fan of riding in the mountains (PS. I live in NJ, so riding in the Rocky Mountains in the background took a bit of a journey to start!).
