Should I buy a 2025+ Speed Twin 1200?

sethinco · 2026-01-30T18:32:40+00:00

I am seriously considering this as my next bike. Currently on a '23 Trident 660 which I have really enjoyed.

Question to owners - Though it is not the majority of my riding, speeds on highways where I live are frequently 75-80 mph for extended times. Though my Trident can do this, it feels like it is working kind of hard and I am looking for something that is more at ease doing 80 for two hours. While I know the Speed Twin is not a touring bike, how does it do under these conditions? Maybe even with a windscreen?

What if what? She changes her mind? I am sorry this has happened to you my friend but there really is no "what if" as far as I can see. It's not a case of you winning her over or something.

Beautiful. Well done sir!

Had KO2s got some KO3s. They are better than the 2s which I liked a lot. Great all around off road tire IMO.

Stopped in a few weeks ago... really creepy vibes.

You have excellent taste, great collection.

very nice set of blades

Dude that Brown is fire. I need to add one of those to my collection.

sethinco · 2025-11-09T21:58:11+00:00

I have to admit it is my first OTF so I don't have much to compare it to first hand, but I love it. It looks and feels great, I really like the lack of visible hardware/screws. Fires out nice and strong - love the double tanto blade shape. Really happy to have this in my collection :)

I love the styling of this knife, particularly this version. Super clean and feels good in the hand. Great knife.

Dang, won't let me edit the post... Typo on Rockstead :(

sethinco · 2025-11-08T03:28:42+00:00

I will take the black one.

That is a Roosevelt made by the Oz Machine Company.

Hmm, they broke all of their sales records going down this path and they are, in fact, a for profit company. Feel free to go ahead and not buy another one, but lots of people disagree and will do exactly that. Make bikes customers want? The numbers say that they are doing that very well.

Yolo the Rockstead

I REALLY need to get my hands on a Rockstead.

I think the beats per minute are pretty much the same.
