    Hi my name is jerry, i'm from ohio. I have a 1971 bonneville that I bought new.Paid $1517.88 in may of 71.It has 18607 miles on it now. In 2016 after sitting for several years I decided to get it out and freshen it up. I spent a year cleaning ,polishing and new paint.Now i'm not able to ride it due to some health issues, but maybe someday. I also have 2 other bikes[honda] and a few classic cars.
