New guy- have some quick questions

what's up everyone? brand new to the forum, with a couple questions (don't worry it's not a 1 sided relationship, I hope to be contributing soon!)

anyway, I'm just about to pull the trigger on a '78 Bonneville 750 (locally), but wanted to find some sites that sell "cafe" accessories that'll fit it first. I'd really like to swap out the handlebars, seat, add some fork gators, some CRG bar end mirrors, and whatever else might look neat. MY QUESTION- were is the place to find this stuff? I've ran across "newbonneville.com", but seems to have just the basic, branded (generic) "stuff". Any place I should be looking more specifically?

newbie


I'm also new to this. Just bought a 2009 Bonnie (black). Put on yellow cam covers, cowl and side covers; brown seat; and gaiters. Now I want to replace the stock handgrips with brown grips to match the seat. I found some really cool leather grips at www.lickscycles.com, and Honda Goldwing has a 7/8" brown sponge grip. And that's where I got stuck... (don't laugh)... does the 2009 Bonnie have a 7/8" or 1" handlebar?

New guys should fill in some of your profile like what part of what country you are in. There's places all over the US, several in the UK, some in Europe, and some downunder.
