Worked at a couple truimph dealerships as a mechanic. The Bonneville has really grown into a great bike, good size to start with, and big enough to stay with. One thing I would tell people was they're an easy bike to live with. Completely turn key, fun to ride, and look great. You really don't get tired of them, they're fun, easy to ride, it's not a bike you really need to mentally prepare for when you're going out on a ride. Just big and strong enough to handle freeways, but fine in cities, not hard to handle at all. We sold tons of them. A set of nice pipes, some suspension upgrades and it's even better. There's good aftermarket support with them too. Just one of those bikes you'll just love having around.

back when people using the roads had respect for each other and and long before texting or whatever , they would flash their lights when a vehicle was passing them to let the other driver know they were far enough ahead to pull back into the lane . this was started by truck drivers being passed by other trucks to let the passing driver know his trailer was clear . later it turned into people flashing their lights if they wanted to pass the person ahead .

I have a Triumph Street Twin (Bonneville) 900 cc. - 65 HP. Awesome bike, wonderful engine, I did some short trips (between 700 and 2000 km) with my wife, we loved her, it's a comfortable bike, good for cities too. I only feel some difference between her and the other two Honda bikes I have (Africa Twin and XRE 300 - it's an enduro bike sold in South America); the Honda have a better steering feeling, more intuitive and light, the Triumph is someway heavier on curves and a worse steering angle, but nothing terrible (883, V-Rod etc. are much, much worse LOL). I love the retro feeling she has, combined with a cool engine that gives you a lot of torque at low rpm, and a nice sound from her stock exhaust. And of course the analog panel is great.

the flashing lights trigger is mandatory in many countries, since we have very very long roads with only one lane in each direction and you need to be able to signal when you are passing someone. also day runnig lights and coloured turn signals come from the same problem. for example, in some places trucks have one green light and one orange so you know at a lonh distance that a truck is coming your way, not just a regular car. cars have the same flashing feature

Does the headlight flashing thing get in the way? it's just an extra feature. It can be used to signal other people, no? Someone coming from the opposite direction that flashes lights could mean "Your lights are not on" or "you have your high beams on" or "there's an accident or animals ahead" or when driving in the dark it's useful to flash a bit to let the driver in front of you know that you're going to overtake.

My biz partner used to race them in the '60s. Swore by them. Great bike to ride and very easy to work on. Don't like the fake carbs. They could have the EFI+SAI the way it is and wouldn't make a difference to the overall look. I don't think people buy a bike based on the look (or not) of the carbs being there.

@@marquee6 Yes I know what you mean I have spent years and $$ restoring my old bikes to find they are... old bikes. True, But it's the memories, that fun of early rides... never forget that. At the same time I find many new bikes have no soul it doesn't take Balls to ride them. like Raw Bikes. There, is the Boni. one of them?
