    Hello! I just bought a 2006 Bonneville with only 6k miles and one owner. I believe it is a T100 base. It has a decal rather than a badge on the tank -don’t know the significance of that. She runs great and is a blast to ride. She has after market exhaust and was rejetted to match so she sounds awesome. The previous owner put cafe bars and a tail cowl on so she almost looks like a Thruxton. I currently live in New Mexico and also have a 2015 Goldwing in the garage. I am excited that I finally own a Triumph!

    That green is beautiful. It does have the Ace Cafe sticker, but I was referring to the Triumph decal on the tank rather than a metal screw on like on your beauty.

    Welcome to the family. Real nice steed there. The inmates will ogle that tonight and there will be a competition to see whether yours is a nice as Dozers Dad. The inmates will argue all night long unless nursey ups the meds. Don't worry she will keep some for you aswel.
    Regards & Ride Safe.

    Thanks, all. I've already found some helpful info from old posts and I am learning a little about my Bonnie (Suzie Scoot).

    Yanno, Koko, I fell in love with the looks and sound, but never bothered to look close enough to see what it is. I will check tonight and post a pic tomorrow.
