    Hi thanks for the welcomes I owned Trophies right up until 2002 then went native with BMW but never abandoned Triumph, hence buying the Bonny special I just never got around to using it I didn’t register it until 2015, but it’s never been out on the road yet, it’s got .3 of a mile on so it will be a pleasure to get it on the road in the spring

    Hi yes it’s different it’s a Triumph factory special there were around 3 different ones I think all designed by Paul Smith and sold as specials , mind some of them are weird and ugly, if it attracts too much attention I will sell it and get a plainer Bonneville
