That's a beauty!

Makes me want to get another bike.

Love the look of Triumphs, and used to have a Yammie upright twin 650 (my faux Triumph).

Stay safe!

Don't. Have. Words. Should have sent...a poet.


Seriously, though, she's gorgeous. Just another reminder of why I hope to one day own a Bonnie.

She's truly a beautiful bike Aaron.

I hope you're putting some miles on her.

nice, I have a 1963 Bonneville in my permanent collection
and my brother has a 750 tiger, my dad used to ride me to kindergarten on his Triumph 650 pre unit, so I guess Brit bikes run in the family!

I'd love to see pics of your bikes. Especially that '63!
