It sounds like "My Sweet Love", and it appears to be a new bonneville T-100. It is in black and white, but appears to be a creamsicle color.

And she is gorgeous.

Sorry Bob, piccie just means picture or photo. Certainly looks like a Bonnie.

You are a good man, Lee, but you must be color-blind. It is actually a red bike, but appears gray to your damaged eyes.

Red is always better.

The most recent John Mellancamp video he rides away on a Bonnie. He has owned a few I think.

yes, and I believe that he stands approximately 5 foot tall, therefore giving the illusion of a larger bike.

Red is a nice color but it has been a long known fact that grahite is the fastest color out there. It has to do with atomic structure of graphite. It is able to reduce the surface friction there by increasing the speed. I know it seems hard to believe but it is true. Honest I would not say it if it was not true.
