    Hi,

    I tried both, and would like both!
    Went for T120 as felt more solid, a bit chalk and cheese between them, still love the scrambler and would want one to tailor towards tracker/brat.

    Love my 2017 T120 black, just off warranty, heard on this forum of corrosion on wheels, and sure enough after only 6,000 miles triumph agreed to renew front and back wheels.

    Guess it’s down to feel for your riding plans, riding style and weight!

    I have a 2018 Bonneville blue and white tank. I think the 17 and 18 are pretty much the same bike. If you want a free performance upgrade remove the left side cover, undo the torque head bolt holding the air snorkel in and wriggle and pull it out. I was surprised at the increase in pick up and over all torque improvement. I know it sounds like BS as I also thought but try it and see, also the sound is great. Put it back on when you take the bike for a service. Long term or even short term I dont know what that mod will do as Ive only done it for a few days but the bike is running really well.
    I have had absolutely no issues with my Bonnie and Ive done 25,000 k on it now and not one problem.

    Good luck
