2008 Bonneville Reviews at TopSpeed.com

TopSpeed.com has reviews of all the 2008 Triumphs posted. The tester really likes the various Bonnevilles. Thought you might be interested since a lot of us can't ride at the moment.

Thank you, Doug. I'd never heard of TopSpeed. It's an interesting review, although maybe you had the same feeling as me - that the reviewer had no idea that the Hinckley Bonneville was in production until he was given one to test. But very positive, as you say.

Nice reviews, though seemingly based on a brief encounter only. Specifications say 'twin carburetors' while the accompagnying pics actually show the EFI-units (recognizable because of the fact that the throttle position sensor sits on the left side instead of the right, as with the carbs).

They don't have the most in-depth reviews but usually have some great photos.

I read a bunch of reviews on that site..did anyone notice that there wasn't a "con" about a single motorcycle no matter what the manufacturer on there?
