| mikebg's Full Review: 2002 Triumph Bonneville |
Without fail, each time I take the bike out, people stop me and want to know about her. What year? How much did I pay? I brought it in to the local HD dealer for an inspection sticker and the technition began to tell stories of his early days on his Triumph Bonnie.
Don't the mere 790cc's fool you. This bike is *every bit as quick* as the Sportster 1200 I rode.
Handling, acceleration, smooth shifting, braking, NO VIBRATIONS at highway speeds; I can't say enough!
This is a motorcycle worthy of its historic lineage!
Replace the seat with a Corbin Smuggler(http://www.corbin.com/triumph/bonnevillesmuggler.shtml)
Replace the pipes with Bubs (http://www.bubent.com/)
