                  Best Bonneville T120 ABS BS6
                  I am using this Triumph T120 bike for a few months. It became my best friend because before using this bike whenever I went anywhere I took my friend for chit-chat because I feel bored while bike driving. But when I driving this bike I didn't need anyone. This bike gives me full comfort.

                  Value for money
                  Best adventure bike in this price range. It's underrated and somewhat cost less than Transalp. Weight of bike doesn't feel, thanks to its low centre of gravity. If you want a mile muncher with off road capabilities, then go for it! Suspensions are also adjustable with rebound and compression damping. It will be the best bike you will buy.

                  It's more than worth
                  The bike is much comfortable. It will give Best vibe for adventure bike. It's more worth to buy in india bcz of the Indian roads. I went to ladakh trip like 1200kms and it's so comfortable and also has good mileage. In this price range I think it will be more practical to buy this bike. In this segment the bike's maintenance cost is also not that much.
