    Sure. I think I've sorted it. Tried earlier but file size was too large. Taken on her 20th birthday after just turning 30,000 miles

    Another pic now I've worked how to resize them!
    Original owner added a lot of his own detail such as AI system delete, K&N filter, Predator exhausts, rejetted the carbs, drilled the sprocket cover, adjusted mirror arms to a lower angle, changed indicators front and rear with Lucas tail light and swapped front mudguard from silver to black.
    During my ownership I've deleted the pillion pegs, fitted custom baffles to mellow the exhaust tone, added heated grips and grip puppies, added a relay circuit and altered the single horn to a twin horn set up, bonded a fender extender to front guard, applied yellow tint to the headlamp glass, fitted fork gaiters and added a weather guard to the lower clutch cable.
    The lacquer finish has also been removed from the engine cases so Solvol Autosol can be applied on rainy days!
    I must say the carb set up is brilliant. It must be one of the smoothest bikes I've ridden with really usable power for general A and B road riding.

    Hey there!

    Congrats on the new ride, the Bud Ekins Bonneville T100 is a beauty! You definitely made a solid choice—classic style with that modern touch. I bet you're itching to hit the road after a few years off, and what better way to get back into it than with a Triumph?

    Looking forward to hearing about your adventures with it. Welcome back to the riding community! Ride safe and see you around!

    Cheers!
