Hey all,
just dropping in to test the water. Looks like you all have a nice site here. I found it by reference over in the AdvRider site.

Currently ride a VFR, great bike, but looking at something different. Bonnie's have caught my eye and I am really starting to get the itch to try one out. Any advice? One model better than the others? Like the Thruxton (love old Cafe bikes) but already have a sport bike. Looking more at the Bonnie's for a slower more relaxed pace of ride, and I can ride my son on it and not have my wife bust my chops about it. How do they do two up? Any recommended mod's? I am looking at used but may buy new depends on what I find. Really like the Bonnie Black.

Like I said good looking site here, I think I will poke around and see what I can learn.

Kilroy,

Welcome! Should you choose to pick one up, I assure you that you will not be disappointed. The Bonnies are fun, reliable, easy to maintain, and just so nice to look at.

I ride two up frequently and I've had no problems. Just need to adjust the preload on the rear suspension and you're off.

As for mods, that's a matter of opinion (and a whole other can of worms.) I can tell you there are tons of options out there. It's really just a matter of what YOU want to do.

There is a lot of information here so I think you'll enjoy what you find.

Good luck with your purchase!
