Wanted to trade my zx14 on a speed 3 or twin. While researching this site it seems like the twins are less prone to have the numerous problems I read about, than the triples. The triples are much stronger and have better handling specs. but don't want to spend my time in the shop waiting for repairs. The fun factor of a bike is my goal, you know smile on your face ride.....what say ya'll

If fun is what you're after, I don't think the Bonneville can be beat. In a perfect world I'd be on mine 24/7.

As sweat says, they're also tough to break. Routine maintenance will keep a Bonnie going for a long long time.
