I love my new bonne, it looks fantastic and sounds better, I had one 30 years ago, a heap of*****, though I loved every thing about it.
Tell me about yours,
Your rides,
What you have tricked up so far and want to do in the future

Yeah, Triumph twins get you like that. I had a T140V, absolutely loved it, but it had to go, bought a house etc. etc. anyway I had the bones of a 1955 T110 which I eventually put back together, fantastic bike but not up to modern traffic conditions, brakes etc. Bought a Tbird sport, great bike but not for me, 2 cylinders are enough. Bought a Bonneville T100, yes, this is it , love it, all the fun of a T140V but none of the hassles. I don't think I will ever want another bike, still got the T110 though.

Red & Black T100. Raised the bars, palm rest cruise control, chrome valve cover, removed the AIR, installed ProCom igniter, iriduim plugs, foam air filter, snorkle, 1 shim on the needles so far going for 2 plus jets, Cibie headlamp W/100 Watt H4 bulb, D&D mufflers, Sissy bar, have & going to install center stand, have & going to install Nology coils, under license plate insurance verification box, windshield.
Had a Harley Clone Honda rider come over to me at the gas station today & say he like my restored Bonnie. I told him it was 2006. F&R discs, 900 CC, electronic ignition, 4 valves per cylinder, overhead cams. He was impressed. I couldn't think of one thing to ask him about his bike. I didn't even compliment it. I felt bad.
I also like to ride my CL350 Honda some times. But just a short distance.
