Has any one seen any forward controls offered for the newer bonnies?
I have seen some for the old stuff but not the modern iron.

Thanks,
Mark

The fold down pegs for rhe crash bars are nice for long rides are a nice feature. I dont know why anyone would want FWD controls on a Bonne?? One reason I bought the Bonne is std controls. FWD- get the America! :???:

I kind of thought that about rearsets and lower bars for a Bonnie.
Low Bars and Rearsets- get the Thruxton.

You are welcome here and no question is dumb....just read some of my old posts....Here's what I did...Keep the mid/standard controls for twistie turns, etc and get some of Bonneville Billies Highway bars from Newbonneville.com....they are great for streching out on long rides....[img][/IMG]
