    If it is consistent with the UK pricing rumors it should be $11,000 for the base model and and 12,000 for the ABS. Wanna buy a kidney?

    Bonnie or Scrambler

    Scrambler. Hands down. Bonnie is too much of a street bike (ground clearance, 360 engine, shock height, exhaust, etc) for lumping around forest service roads compared to the Scrambler's torquey 270 engine, high pipes, ground clearance, etc ....

    Check the little black rubber caps on the vacuum lines from the carbs. I had one fall off and the symptoms were exactly the same.

    First Bike In 20 Years

    That seems expensive. You can get an 08 Bonnie with low miles with lots of goodies added on to it for that money (and you will need to add goodies on your new bonnie ... 08 bonnie blacks like mine for example) ... But what ever you get, the die is cast it appears for a retro triumph...

    New guy thinking about buying bike....

    Welcome to the forum. Once you actually ride the bike and not just sit on it in the showroom, your first question will be answered and you will love it! :c 1) 6' and 210 ... and no problems with the size of the bonnie at all. 2) Full face - ATGATT - but this is a personal choice. 3) Togas...

    Power, Noise, Cosmetics or Handling?

    Couldn't figure out which to do first, so I did them all at once. Togas, ARK, AIR, rejet, and suspension before I took delivery and brakes, tach, bars, fenders/mudflaps, taillight, turn signals, mirrors, seat, etc within the first week. Power is next during the winter. Come to think of it...

    Have'nt ridden in 33 years

    Bigted - I am just like you. Returning to riding after 35 years. I get my 08 Black next week after some suspension upgrades and the normal stage one mods. I took the MSF class and it was worth it. I found that I learned things I never knew, and it helped me build up correct habits that I...
