    Greetings from St. Louis

    Clarke, Getting together with some other Bonneville riders would be great. Maybe a run up to Hardin via Alton, Brussles Ferry, etc. However, I don't know the methods for making contact, except by phone. Maybe the moderators could help. Otherwise, check out STLRiderz.com and look for...

    Greetings from St. Louis

    gcrider, Wildhorse and Highway T ain't what they used to be. It's now the very well healed western edge of St. Louis County. 911's, SL500's, A8's and 750iL's drivin' like idiots! I used to do the Gumbo to St. Albans route via T, with pedal power. Too crazy out there now! My local fave is...

    Loxpump, Are you heading to Putnam for track day, now that Gateway is history? A good friend of mine over here in St. Louis County takes his Daytona 675 over there. I'm guessing you, and your buddy D9, are some of the only Bonnie track day riders around here. Or maybe I'm way off on that...

    Koifarm, I only paid $4200. That's all he wanted for it. But, I had to be in rural Missouri on January 3rd with cash and a trailer to pull it off. I feel the bike, with options, is worth $5000 plus. Also, I just sold a spotless, but optionless, 2006 T100, with 22,000 miles for $4000...

    Greetings from St. Louis

    Hi Folks, A new/used Bonnie owner reporting. Picked up a 2005 T100 in black, with only 1100 miles this January. Previous owner added $1800 in bolt-ons. The bike came with N-H Toga's, a Corbin Smuggler and numerous Triumph chrome bits. I'm likely to also add N-H M-bars, Triumph...
