2022 Triumph Bonneville T100

CarHunch analysed 172 real MOT records for the 2022 Triumph Bonneville T100. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

The 2022 Triumph Bonneville T100 passes its MOT at 82.3%, which is slightly above the UK average of 80%, and dangerous defects are virtually non-existent at just 0.6% of vehicles—a reassuring baseline for reliability. With an average of only 0.05 failures and 0.2 advisories per vehicle, this bike shows genuinely low wear patterns.

The median mileage of 3,490 miles is notably low for a two-year-old machine, suggesting these are cherished hobby bikes rather than daily commuters, which explains the minimal maintenance burden. If you're buying used, prioritize a pre-purchase inspection of the clutch and brakes (the most common advisory items on retro bikes), but overall you're looking at a well-kept platform with minimal inherited problems.

What to check before buying a 2022 Triumph Bonneville T100

Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.

  • 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
  • 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
  • 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
  • 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
