Review Triumph Bonneville T120 Black (2026)
Same Bonnie, Blacked-Out Engine, Brown Seat – for Riders Who Find Chrome Too Loud
The T120 Black is not a separate model line; it is a character choice. Engine, chassis, electronics, and price level are almost identical to the T120. The difference is in the finish: blacked-out engine cases, exhaust system, and components instead of chrome, plus a brown seat rather than black. The result is a darker, more serious Bonneville, closer to café-racer tradition than showroom jewelry. New for 2026, just like the T120: IMU-based cornering ABS and lean-sensitive traction control, cruise control as standard, USB-C, a new LED headlight, and an optional A2 kit. The engine is unchanged: 1,200 cc, 80 hp, 105 Nm at 3,500 rpm. From EUR 14,245 in Germany, with a four-year warranty.

T120 Black vs. T120: What Changes – and What Does Not
Anyone who has read the T120 review already knows the engine, chassis, electronics, and ergonomics of the T120 Black, because they are identical. The 1,200 cc High Torque parallel twin produces 80 hp and 105 Nm and drives through a six-speed gearbox and chain. Kayaba suspension, twin front Brembo discs, cornering ABS, lean-sensitive traction control, cruise control, and USB-C are all the same as on the 2026 T120. Even the 790 mm seat height and 233 kg ready-to-ride weight are identical.
