    Evening all names Tony and bought myself a Bonny yesterday. It's the 2003 Hinckley version. First real time on a "proper" 4-stroke. Also nearly finished restoring an RD 250 E Yamaha which has been interesting [3 different seizes!]

    I'm sure i'll be on here shortly with annoying newbie type questions that you've seen before but for now HI.

    Thanks for welcome chaps. Certainly got a lot more zip than the RD but they are like my children I love them both equally.

    Hi Tony and welcome, I have a 2012 Speed Triple but have hankered after an early bonnie. My first big bike was a thunderbird back in the 60's. Hopefully when I have finished restoring my NC30 and soldit on I will be able to get a bonnie. Keep it rubber side down mate,remember (life's to short to grow up).
