-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Triumph textile jacket with liner, Size XL. Excellent condition: Little evidence of wear or fading (my wife has proclaimed it "like new"). It was purchased "early in this century" by friend who was grounded by...

Could I get a little help from one of you experienced Triumph Wizards? I want a 19" front wheel for my 09 Bonnie Black, and prefer not to have to totally convert from cast to spoke wheels. Found a 2006 Triumph Tiger 955 i Front Wheel Rim (Michelin 110/80-R19 Tire) which looks like it would be...

Three variations of bar-end mirrors available from newbonneville.com.

I bought the basic black Bonnie and added a small tach kit and a few other accessory items, and couldn't be happier.

How Old? I'm 69-- which means I may have posted a response to this thread earlier (when I was a little younger)... Bought my first new motorcycle in 1967, and have probably owned two dozen of assorted flavors since then. Currently have the 2009 Bonnie and a 1983 BMW R65. Commute a couple of...

Really enjoying the '09 Bonneville I bought new, last fall: For me, it's the perfect bike, just as it is (now that I've added a small windshield, BillyBars, handlebar risers, mirror extensions, luggage rack, mini-tach inD9 bracket, adjustable rider pegs, and an aftermarket T100 seat)...

I'm also not a hard-riding high-revver-- but I added a mini-tach in a D9 bracket, and haven't regretted it... As someone mentioned, I even like to know how it's idling-- and once in a while I'm in a situation which does call for more RPMs. ymmv.

Nobody appreciates the Yankees more than us Rangers fans...

Saddle on a sow? Well, I have seen a sow on a saddle-- on the pillion, technically...

My '09 Bonneville (and the rest of the family) are considering relocating from Plano to Galveston. Would appreciate feedback from any Houston-area riders who have service experience with British/USA in South Houston!

...for this old rider, at least! Recently acquired a slightly used "Cafe-style" seat by Sixty-8 for my new '09 Bonnie. Stock seat was a little hard, and I was restricted to sitting on the front part of the seat, or to sitting on the hard ridge (and strap) where the seat transitions to the...

Bienvenu! J'ai vecu a Grenoble, quand j'avais six ans (1952). Ma Bonneville est ma premiere Triumph (apres beaucoups d'autres marques Japonais et Allemands. Et finalement, veuillez excuser mon Francais!

Just replaced the stock horn with the 123dB Stebel from newbonneville.com (shown in SweatMachine's post)... My next step is to reinstall the stock VW bug-sounding horn, plus a relay, to give the two-tone honk. As for volume, the replacement is more piercing than stock (so it might be more...

Let's grade the Bonnie on durability... Which is why I switched from another European make that was tough and well-engineered, but required constant wrenching to stay on the road. I would bet on the Bonneville over most comparable-displacement bikes in an endurance race.

Can't we all just get along (at least until Patty unveils the superseat)?

My last Triumph was British racing green. Gorgeous-- but it was a Spitfire. Current 09 Bonnie is my first British motorcycle, though I've owned most of the rest... Welcome to the forum, and to Texas! By the way, Two Wheeled Texans are doing a monthly "Pie Run" to Elgin, this Saturday-- right in...

I've always done the weekly pressure checks, on every motorcycle I've owned, but have a hard time doing it (bad back and knees)-- so I'm really excited about the "Tire Pressure Monitor Caps" (pressure-specific valve caps that alert you if you have a pressure drop): I've installed a pair on my...

That's a beauty... Look forward to hearing your answer to question from hankmarx. I'm from Houston, living in Plano.

Welcome, John. New babies (and new houses) are waaay behind me, but I DO have a brand new Bonneville-- and I can promise you won't be sorry! Burt in Plano

Yo, Buckle... Any more you can share on your self-fashioned pegs? Did they involve a rod and 2 U-bolts? Inquiring minds need to know!

GREAT! It will be the first time Luckenbach has seen me... And since I can't get in an out of a tent any more, looks like I'll be at the Full Moon Inn (less than a mile away).

Both of these events focus on British and European Classic and Vintage bikes, but welcome riders on throwback bikes like the new Bonneville-- and folks riding a variety of other motorcycles, as well. [ ] First, on October 1,2 and 3, is the Lake of the Pines Rally in Jefferson, TX...

Replace both-- and if you find out who did it, that's where you can stash the old tube!

You might read the review of the Bonneville SE (by Bill Stermer, I think) in a recent Rider Magazine... It helped determine my choice of a new Bonneville. Author has pretty high praise for the bike-- but with the disclaimer that if you want to burn rubber and pop wheelies, it's not the right...
