Welcome to ChopCult's first new bike shootout. For this battle, we selected the 2012 Harley-Davidson Sportster Forty-Eight and the Triumph Bonneville T100. Totally different looking bikes, but both on a similar mission; reliable two-wheeled fun for about ten grand. We'll do this feature in three parts: Triumph, Harley and the Conclusion. We only spent a couple weeks with the machines, but during that time we took them through the paces, from canyon carving to highway cruising and the daily commute, we lived with the bikes and swapped them amongst a diverse group of riders to assemble real-world opinions and feedback. Here's part one, the 2012 Triumph Bonneville T100.
