    Instrument panel

    Hi All; I have a 2012 T-100 Bonneville with a Tack and Speedo in the panel. When riding in certain circumstances the sun will reflect off the glass and nearly blind me. My question is, has anyone found a way to stop this sun reflection other then covering/breaking the glass. I'd still...

    Bonnie or T100

    T-100 I have a 2012 T100 and really enjoy riding this motorcycle. It is the 110 year celebration model with spokes wheels and a green and silver paint. The only problem with these bikes are the tube tires you are forced to use and whenever you stop several people of my age want to tell you...

    T100 Tires

    Hi All; I have a 2012 Bonneville T100 with spoke wheels. What tires are you running on these wheels ? I would like to run Michelin PR-3's but they are listed for tubeless wheels. Will they work with tubes in them on my wheels ? Thanks for the replies. Brent

    Jake's Ride to Julian, CA

    Hi All; Last weekend I had a ride to Julian, California with my son, son-in-law, 2 grandsons and friend Ed. We left on Friday from Anaheim and rode across the 91 Freeway to the 15 Fwy to the country road to Julian where we had lunch. No Apple Pie though as the lunch was more then enough to...

    Hi from Central California

    Arizona My cousin and his wife are residents of Lethbridge, Alberta, but they, for some reason spend the Winter in Arizona. Unfortunately they don't ride but I make up for their lack of having fun.

    Been Gone Awhile

    1964 tr6 BM, that's the exact bike I was wanting way back in 1964, right down to the color and the rack on the tank. All this time I thought it was a Bonneville. I got a 64, 750 Norton Atlas instead, because the Triumph was $100 more and just out of my reach. You did a fine job on a great...

    Hello From California

    Brake squeak Hi Luis, congratulations on the new Bonneville. Try cleaning the rotors with some type of Brake cleaning chemical available at most auto parts stores. Sometimes the squeak is caused by the pads vibrating against the push piston. There is a special grease that can be put on...

    2012 Bonniville T100 Yes it is the 110th anniversary model. I just happened to be browsing the internet and came across this bike. As soon as I saw it old memories came flooding back from 49 years ago when I really wanted a Bonneville. I've put about 900 miles on it so far and I'm not...

    Don't Use the Wife's Good Pot to Boil a Chain

    Boiling a chain In 1964, long before the advent of X-ring and O-ring chains, I took the chain off my 1964 Norton Atlas, heated grease on the kitchen stove, put the chain in, stirred it together then hung the chain, in the garage to cool. All was well until "the little woman" got home and...
