I traded a Weestrom as they are affectionally known for my Scrambler. There is no question the Suzuki had more pop than a stock Scrambler (not sure how that translates to a Bonnie). However, the motor is very peaky and under normal conditions a lot more shifting is required to have access to the power. The motor is also more buzzy, not nearly as smooth as the Scrambler. Over all I much prefer the Scrambler for what I was/am using the bike for as a daily commuter through a mix of back roads and city streets.
If I need power, have to carry stuff, or am on a very long ride I opt for the Tiger which does everything the strom did only significantly better.

PS (edited in): The one thing the strom does better than either Triumph is that it got 25% better gas mileage (50 vs. 40 miles per US gallon).
