In 2016, a Triumph Speedmaster 908 ML accompanied me on my journey through Norway. It was a 2004 model and remained reliable and comfortable throughout the entire trip.
Apart from a temporary oil leak at the gear shaft seal, there were no incidents or technical problems at all. The Speedmaster was dependable at all times and noticeably more comfortable on long distances than some of the motorcycles I had ridden before.
Thanks to the upgraded slide carburetors and the Cigarro exhaust system, the engine had a very unique character — and was probably just a little bit too loud. On the other hand, it sounded exactly the way a classic Triumph should.
