I've made a few final changes to Penny. Different lights and turn signals may be in her future and the tach kit is on the way.

Here she is at home in her circa 1953 mid century garage. Fitting digs...don't you think?

And a beauty shot of her new bonnet...

Now I really didn't want any of you guys checking out her tail end, but I must say...her new Predators are hot, hot, hot!

sweet ride, cool house.

Did you trim down that flyscreen?

Just a quick note to say that really is an incredibly beautiful bike! I've seen it before, but it really hit me this time. I love the seat and that harmonica tank badge looks so perfect. I'm just sayin.....

Wow! It amazes me how many people in this forum have such good taste in making an already great looking bike, even better looking.

That brown seat gives a nice combo of color.

I'd be embarrassed to ride next to you with my bike looking like a work horse vs your stallion.

looks bloody good.i really like the contrast of the brown seat.

The Classic tank badge looks great on the black Bonnie.

Changing out the stock tail light and turn signals will make a nice improvement too.

Yes, the flyscreen was bobbed. Compliments of Seth (D9). Excellent handiwork to be sure!

I cannot get over these new pipes....sweeeeeeet!

Better than retro, if you ask me...Congrats!

It is of course beautiful. We crack me up, every one of us. I guess with very few exceptions we all have impecable taste. The modded Bonnie that looks bad is rare. There are certain things about stockers that bother me such as the tail light but I do not even notice them anymore. The Bonnie is a looker to begin with and the mods everyone is doing only adds to their character. Well done.

I just wonder if 30 years from now if a stock Bonnie is worth more than modded who will have all the stuff to go back? I have gone too far, guess I may have to get another one. It is a disease I fear.

A stock bonnie is one that has not lived or been enjoyed! (my apologies Monte).

I don't care to have a stock one now, or 30 years from now. I hope mine is worn down to nothing in 30 years, rebuilt, and worn down to nothing again.
