My walmart battery croaked after less than 2 years, and it was on a battery tender the whole time. I won't waste another $50 on one of them when a yuasa or deka is $20 more.

Alot of the serious sand rails adapt a ford 2.3 turbo to the VW transmission. Some stock 2.3 turbos are over 200hp, breathed on 300hp easy. Check out esslinger engineering.

Who the hell would put motocross bars on a bike like that. It needs proper clip-ons, or at least some ace bars. Otherwise its really nice.

Looks like Benjies is building direct fit clip-ons. Stainless T clip-on bars that will slide in to the stock Hinckley bonneville forks. It's set up for the stock switches, levers, and even the end caps. The clip ons also comes with stianless bracket for the brake resevoir. Looks nice for a...

Not a show, but commercial @ 8 sec bonneville black. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGFlu4rkzlM

You have time to wash it? I just ride mine :D

looks great seth, looks like you went down the same path I did - mbars, exhaust, rearset, solo seat. What happened to the flyscreen? I always liked that bobbed flyscreen you had. I finally bobbed my rear fender, and now it looks like a thruxton rear fender, oh well, I can always hack a...

Me 4, but I'll never sell my bonneville! I am just curious what twice the hp and a real suspension feels like.

FWIW, I had the 32" wide black low cafe bars from flanders and traded them out for the 28" wide M-bars and haven't looked back. The narrower bars with more angle are much better for me.

one more, my favorite flat trackers playing on a frozen lake http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjxGxTEAmUo

I'm not exactly sure about this, but as I recall there are 1 or 2 washers on each post between the speedo and the plastic housing (inside it), these may keep you from being able to really tighten the speedo down. D9, did you have the washers on the inside of the housing when you mocked it up...

Tractor, I don't know anything about a tractor sitting on cinder blocks!

suspect caught on camera just before horrific crash into local mcdonalds playland... top story at 7.

I've seen a local bike that was converted to clip-ons, it looks ok except for the two big holes in the top triple tree where the handlebar risers used to be. I saw one person I think on here that filled them in, and polished it to give it a clean look. Maybe a thruxton tree would work better?

D9 asked me to post a write-up on wiring up an aftermarket tach (drag specialties DS244133 and clones) on the bonnevilles. So to save the poor souls who were being referred to the unmentionable site :nono: i've written up the instructions here. All photos are of my 2004 Bonneville, but I think...

I'll second the dupont multipurpose dry lubricant. It's the shit, just like matt says. It's has the least "flingability" of anything i've tried. Plus its cheap and easy to find (lowes). :rockon:

actually I have another fender that has no reflectors that I am bobbing :D

Here are a few shots of the smoked lights on the bike: Fronts: Rear:

I would recommend an ale to go with the smoked lens, the only wine I like is from a blower. The plastic is actually dyed, it will not wash off. I'm not sure about fading, but if it ever does you could just dye them again, but I doubt it will fade. I don't think the tinting affects the light...
