Hi Folks. Just got my first Triumph after 30 years of riding all kinds of rusty old Japanese junk. Its an '09 Bonnie SE. Low mileage, excellent condition, I just couldn't turn it down for the price. After a couple of hiccups with an elderly battery and a snapped speedo cable I'm loving it. I'd always fancied a Bonneville. So I thought I'd drop in and introduce meself. I'm probably going to annoy you with the usual noob questions so I'll apologise in advance. Cheers all
Welcome aboard from one Dave to another, hope you enjoy the forum, we will of course need photographic evidence of the new steed
Cheers Folks. Here's the wee beastie. I've since put bar end mirrors on and removed the massive luggage rack. I got caught in a bloody monsoon on it the other day and the seat seems to have soaked up about a gallon of rain water. Now I get a soggy gusset everytime I sit on it. I think some waterproofing is in order once I manage to dry the bugger out properly
Welcome to a terrific forum, DaveB, and to the wonderful world of Triumphs! Thanks for sending the photo. She's a lovely "wee beastie", as you refer to her.
DaveB. If I missed your post welcome to the family. Lovely looking machine you have there. You should fit right in here in the asylum. Nursey is great with the meds aswel. Regards & ride Safe. Joe
