I want to buy one of the triumph modern classic bikes. The best looking to me by far is the t120. Most of my riding will be on road, I'd say 90% or maybe even more, but I really want something that can handle some occasional off road stuff too, moreso than just basic dirt roads etc, but not quite as far as wading through knee high water and taking it off jumps and over logs etc. The obvious solution would be to pick the Scrambler 1200 xe, but to me it just looks a bit too lanky, like they put a t120 on stilts. It looks kinda silly to me, like a monster truck. The next obvious choice then would be the Scrambler 1200 x, but I feel like that's so far from the xe and so close to a t120 that it's almost not worth it, plus there are a lot of things that the t120 has going for it over the 1200 x like cruise control, heated grips, higher quality parts and better looking clocks. I'm wondering, if I put a sump guard and some more off-road oriented tires on a t120, would that basically make it almost as off-road capable as the scrambler 1200x, which is already a fairly substantial downgrade from the 1200 xe anyway? Or is it still pretty useless off road, and the 1200 x is significantly better? Thoughts?
