Being still undecided whether to buy a Speedmaster, America or a Bonnerville T100 I made yet another trip to a Triumph dealer.
After being there for about 40 minutes the subject got around to old Triumps. Bonnervilles in particular. We were discussing how good the Bonny still looked because it still had the original Bonny look (seat & spoke wheels) etc. The guy who owns the dealership, who had been standing there listening to our conversation chirped in with "If you want a Bonnerville that looks like a Bonnerville you had better buy one quick". So I replied why is the price going up?
NO HE REPLIED
"AS FROM LATER THIS YEAR THEY ARE ALL GOING TO HAVE ALLOY WHEELS"
Whether it was bull s**t to get me to buy quickly or it's true I don't know. Next time you're in your Triumph dealer ask the question.
