Plastic badges and stickers are what you'll probably get outta Triumph for an anniversary model.

A mechanic on another forum reported that a Triumph sales rep confirmed the "cast wheels for the Bonneville" rumor (discussed here earlier). He said that they will probably be available as accessories and that they may be on a special edition model (50th edition?)

I'm really curious what they look like.

As much as I love the old school look of spokes, it would be great to have the option of cast wheels.

Cast wheels,tubeless tyres,twin front discs and fuel injection.It would make the Bonnie nearly perfect,but the purists will object.
