    Hi. Just bought a new 2017 Bonneville Bobber. Great ride! So far, it's getting along nicely with my 2 Kawasakis...

    Welcome to the Family. Do drop us a picture of the steeds. We need to see those Kwak's are not picking on the Bonnie.
    Regards & Ride Safe.

    Neighbors surely. The Bobber is a really cool bike. I ride a 2018 Street Twin. My 1st Triumph. Used to have a 1100 V Star. FYI, the Marin Speed Shop in San Rafael often has group rides in the summer. Lots of good people and fun. Usually the rides are in Marin and Sonoma County.

    I'll check out that Speed Shop, thanks. The Street Twin is the 865 cc motor too, right? I rode both my bikes yesterday, and I really don't feel any difference in power between the 1200 cc Sportster and the 865 Bonneville. I haven't ridden the 1200 cc Triumph yet, but I'm wondering how much more powerful it feels compared to the 865. I heard it's not as smooth as the 865. Ride safe...
