    Hi all - just bought a 2011 Bonnie in black with cast wheels, engine bar, spare seat (K&Q) and a few other add ons (all arriving soon). This looks like a good site !...... cheers Mick

    I had a Tiger 750 back in the '70s, and many bikes since ! I still have very fond memories of the Laverda 750GTL, but this new Bonnie will suit me fine.

    Thats the Bonnie I was looking at, I'm too lazy to clean spokes properly. Ended up putting a deposit on a Street Twin instead. Pidcocks have a really nice brand new Bonnie for £6.2k with custom blue paint job.
