    Hi all!

    New member here; previously a member of TriumphRAT when I rode a custom Street Scrambler. I'm now riding a 2021 T120 (new to me, but previously well looked after).

    After the time and money that I pumped into my scrambler I promised myself that I would be riding this bike stock. Anyway, just awaiting delivery of:
    • Halcyon bar end mirrors,
    • Motone pannier rails,
    • OEM sump guard,
    • OEM centre stand.
    I'm on the fence about rear shocks, so I'll see how they treat my behind after a 1000 miles or so.

    :grinning:

    Greetings @BritishBonnie and welcome to the forum! Please share a pic or two of your T120 and keep us posted on those new parts and possible shocks. I'm sure you can find MANY opinions here on the forum about what shocks to look at. ;):)
