Post your Bonnie pics here

Hi Pottsy lovely bike, beautiful colour.

If you're planning to sell have you put an add in the "For Sale"section?

 

Ah thanks Crispey I was beginning to think it was just me that liked it, its 8 ball Plum and old English white I believe there were 44 sprayed in this colour but only put on the basic model. I said I wanted this colour but I wanted it on the SE so the dealership swapped all the bits over to give me what I wanted.

 

No, did not relise there was one.

 

If you have a look at the bottom of the forums page you'll a Classifieds section.

 

Thanks seen it now. Just been looking at the bonnie with the red seat..... looks good, its just sold

 

Very nice colour scheme - and I love the Teddy! haha

 

Yes as I said teddy and blonde not for sale....... dont think I would get away with that one.

 

Just spent the last hour browsing this thread. Some great inspirational pictures of all the bikes and shows you can really make these your own. Great colour choice Pottsy. That paint looks metallic to me in the sunshine

 

Lovely looking bike Pottsy.... how did you get the wheels looking so shiny?

 

Hi Monkeyjoe
Yes those wheels are a labour of love. Get them up to scratch with autoglem metal polish then use auto glem resin polish ( other polish manufacturers polish is available ) the real secret is don't let them get too bad. The front wheel is easier its what you use on your chain can affect how the wheel corrodes. I try to stick to the wax lubricants. But truimph don't give any kind of warranty on the corrosion of those wheels. I was advised by 8 ball not to use auto solve as it is too harsh, but if you do follow it up with autoglem which is finer in grade.

 

Nice one, cheers mate, I'll give it a go...

 

Gave her a good old clean over the weekend, so I thought I'd share!

 

looks good,theres something theraputic about giving the bike a good clean

 

Yeah, did mine also...

 

Nice, looks good. Now so long as you don't take her out in the rain, it will be fine. Oh one other tip, the wife's cotton buds work a treat in between the fins. Well that is until I forgot to put them back and she found them in my man cave.

 

back on the road after a few mods!!

 

long overdue in posting these, 2 year old Bonnie, lost of custom bits and yep the orange may not be everyones taste but she is pretty sweet, even won a local bike show last month!!
The thruxton is my old bike that I had done up and sold, bumped in to the new owner by chance!
