2023 Triumph Bonneville T120 Black

CarHunch is tracking 192 2023 Triumph Bonneville T120 Black vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.

This is a brand-new motorcycle with a first-time pass rate of just 2.6% — but that figure is essentially meaningless here, since these machines haven't accumulated real-world mileage yet. The median mileage sits at only 3,227 miles, meaning most examples are still being run in or are barely used, which explains why there are zero failures, zero advisories, and zero dangerous defects recorded across all 192 bikes tested.

What matters for a buyer is that you're looking at machines so new they haven't yet encountered the wear, corrosion, and component stress that reveal genuine reliability problems. If you're considering one, focus instead on the dealer's warranty, Triumph's track record with this engine and chassis, and whether the bike suits your riding plans — the MOT data simply can't tell you much yet because these machines are too fresh off the floor.

What to check before buying a 2023 Triumph Bonneville T120 Black

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.
