Featured Thought I Would Start A New Thread About My Bonneville Sixty

Just thought i would show of my new T100 Bonneville sixty. I have now cleaned it up and got rid of the most of the rust on the wheels which will need rebuilt before long

 

Nice and a limited edition, does it have a number? only 650 produced

 

Lovely @joe mc donald and perfect weather to be out and about on it!

 

@Helmut Visor Yes it has and the John Bloor signed worksheet. Every thing still with it. The Blue panels and guard are all boxed as was taken of at new. As i say it had rust wheels and spokes but if memory serves me right they all had the same problem and it is nothing a rebuild won't cure. Thanks for looking and the encouraging comments.

 

Got to get that chrome rear guard on to match the front .... and the seat would look nice, uh .... chromed too !
Well done !

 

@Fartomany Yes i have looked for a chrome rear guard. But with no avail. I may later on buy a standard one and have it chromed.

 

Nice one Joe, l think you change bikes quicker than l change undercrackers

 

@MightyBoosh Can't help myself. Sent this to my Tracy.

 

@joe mc donald
What a beautiful bike, Joe! Thanks for sharing some photos. You just keep buying and selling bikes as long as you're able! Good on Tracy for being so supportive of your "habit". I think motorcycles are one of the best habits to have.

 

@Sandi T Thanks for that. You are still my best friend. Yes Tracy is my star. Was thinking about a little old two stroke the other day but only thinking.

 

Well peeps i had the T100 out today about one hundred mile and it ran a treat. But with only two and a half thousand miles its just run in. Only fault i find is the hard tyres still being the OEM Metzler's. But very pleased. So now if you see any bits i may like please let me know. Like saddle bag rails chrome ear guard rad guard and other bits.

 

Glad you're getting that new T100 out, Joe, and that you're pleased with it. Enjoy "decorating" it and making it your own.

 

Really Nice. Just a beauty.

 

It's a limited edition bud, don't fettle with it too much

 

@Helmut Visor No mate don't intend to change anything that can't be put back on. Even the seat i am picking a second seat Friday which i want to get padded a little more.

 

@joe mc donald What's the update on your new seat? Pics? Beauty as it is but I can understand wanting more padding

 

@Martine My friend still has the donor seat and he will do something to make it sittable for me. He has done one before for me and i was very pleased. Will let you all know when he comes back to me.

 

Well peeps i think perhaps you are all right. I went to Bulldog today about my wiring fault. And guess what yes i traded it. We actually looked at their Demo bike and it was exactly the same as mine even worse and less miles. But what do you think of this. I should pick it up in a week or so. I was talking to them about bike sales and they said they were busier than ever. Sorry peeps i have tried all ways to download the picture i wanted to show you but it not playing ball tonight. Will have to wait till i get the bike home and take some photos with my phone. Sorry to keep you waiting

 

Don't forget to always have some decent dark glasses on hand, Joe .. this bike could easily burn you eyeballs iffen yer look at it too long ? ( suspecting you may be tempted ) ???

 

Ok, Joe. I must admit I'm a bit confused by this post. Are you saying that you already traded your blue T100?
