    So I'm reliving my youth, owned a T120R "back in the day" Two weeks ago I test rode a 2010 Bonneville 865 and the only question I had was "where do I sign?"
    Loving every minute on the bike and find excuses to ride it all the time. Only downside is it doesn't waterproof my boots with oil like the original did!

    Look on the bright side!

    You can now keep going and going and going from one fuel stop to another.

    Ps If you soak your legs in Duckhams finest prior to putting on your kit it may help relive your past experiences

    Gorgeous! Hope to join you in two or three months. Love the Triumph logo - much nicer than the blingy applied logos of the newer bikes. Enjoy.
