This one made my mind up for me
I have been trying to figure out which model of Triumph to buy (Bonneville, America, Speedmaster) but as soon as I saw this photo, that did it.
Does anyone recognize this photo? I want to find out more about the bike but can't remember where I found the photo. I seem to recall that it belonged to actor Ryan Reynolds but searching doesn't produce any results.

Looks to be a bonneville black, probly, with red tin and some bolt on mods. You can do that yourself without too much trouble

Someone just had that photo on one of the recent threads, and sorry I can't remember which one. I like that bike too. If they were to pull that tank and grind that seam down, I think they'd have something.

That is really awesome. But why haven't they removed the passenger pegs? Seems odd, as it is set up as a cafe racer, with seat cowl.

Yea, thanks. That is one reason I really like it--it is a look I can get from starting with a base model and making some relatively minor mods (not the world's best mechanic here never mind welder/fabricator/machinist) |

From what I can see, and I am no expert, the mods include:
custom paint, Corbin? seat, rear fender eliminated, aftermarket (or modified?) front fender, black rims (are these stock?), black aftermarket pipes, turn signals removed, non-stock headlight?, fork boots, chain guard removed, aftermarket handlebars, mirrors replaced with single bar-end mirror
Am I missing anything?
