I'll start with grab rails.
I have a '67 Bonnie T12R that has a black framed grab rail with a chromed hoop.
1. This bike shouldn't have a grab rail at all.
2. Were't the earlier grab rails all chrome?
3. The bike was sold to me in fairly unmolested condition and was reputed to be "second owner, all stock" (yeah, right, I know, I know). Previous owner claimed that grab rail was on it at "Big D" in Dallas, from new.
4. If the grab rail was on the bike from new, even though it was not original equipment, how did it appear 2 - 3 years before standard production, in the exact form of the eventual stock units?
There's one to chew on.
