We head off into the English countryside with Triumph’s latest Bonneville.

I had a revelation recently: I’m an exceedingly civilized sort of chap.

Deep down, I’d always known it, but that lightbulb moment of conscious realisation didn’t happen until I coasted in to Bourton-on-the-Water on the new Triumph T100 on a chilly afternoon last week.

The Bonneville T100, announced at Intermot, sits between the entry-level Street Twin and T120 with power coming from the Street Twin’s 900cc engine (as opposed to the 1200cc unit in the T120), and looks being firmly in the T120 camp. Unlike the T120, the T100 is also available for A2 licence holders.
