Welcome Kender...nice to have you aboard. Don't worry about your English. We all talk "Triumph" in here. Nice paint-job on your Bonnie.

Thumbs up

Welcome. It is good we get some more Europeans on this forum. I'm actually toying around with the idea of riding my Bonnie from Oslo to Italy next summer. Just can't wait to do the Alps

BTW: Really cool paint-work on your bike.

Ride safe!

Non tutti l'Americani qui sono nati negli USA. Io per esempio sono l'unico Italiano scappato dall'Umbria, almeno pare.
A me il Bonneville piace anche perche mi ricorda molto i bicilindrici della mia gioventu- MV350. Morini Tremezzo, ed il gran vibratore il Benelli Tornado bicilindrico 650. I motori tipici degl'anni '70. Pero in chiave moderna vanno molto meglio!
Il colore della tua moto non l'ho mai visto prima, il verde su bianco. Bello.
Saluti
Michele

a brit bike in italy?

just got back from italy (including sardegna and corsica). In italy, I figured I'd better rent an ITALIAN bike. I went with a Guzzi Breva - we spent 2 weeks and 300km together. Got home to Canada and Bonnie felt light (good) and under-powered (good or bad depending on your pov, but mostly bad). Biggest thing I noticed about the Guzzi (or my KTM) compared to my Bonnie is that the Triumph stock brakes and suspension aren't exactly up to standard...

Still, all in all, I don't think I'll sell Bonnie for the Guzzi...

Bienvenutto & Prego!!
