What is Triumph thinking limiting the color range dramatically on the 07 models ... why not make the mags an option as well, i'm ole skool and I still like my spokes Hoffo.
I agree- spokes and more colors would be nice on the new Bonnies. But hey, this is a nice find right here.

Hey churchkey look in the Rides and Rally section. You need to think about coming to the ARK/OK BA.com rally Sept. 7-9. There are 3 of us already from OK. going. 4 if you count Hill who lives near Ft. Smith. Then all those TX guys,(yeah I know, us Sooners generally don't like to associate with Texacans, but I guess we have to let them come since Nuthin and T-Max are planning it. ) Yota from Ky. and Skillett from AL.
That sounds like a lot of fun, but i don't think i can make it. I hope you'll keep doing them though...maybe then. BTW: if any of you guys go to Hot Springs, check out McLard's BBQ (that's right McLARD!)....some of the very best i've ever had. It's nationally known to be good. He's a cousin to Billy Bob Thornton as i found out when Billy Bob mentioned McLard's on the Tonight Show.

Only certain people (or other small creatures) can actually see it.

The gremlin bell is a small bell people hang from the frame somewhere to keep the gremlins away.(ever see the old Bugs Bunny toon from WW2? The gremlin sabotages the bomber(the B-17))
I learned all I need to know about life by killing smart people and eating their brains. Eat right ,Exercise ,Stay fit, Die Anyway!

I bought the first Bonneville America the dealer in my area received. and it was the cardinal red, this is one of the only photos I have of it stock. look around my gallery snekeptp's gallery or my photobucket pages snekeptp's photobucket you will see all the different stages of my 02 america and a bit of my 07. the bags are Triumph bags and were never intended for the america. I really need to do a write up on the bag mod for the Tech vault. I had the bags painted to match . the flag kit is just the tank and front fender.

Nice bike Pete, what happened to it???? All I can remember of it is Thanksgiving dinner and pie for some reason. 
A word to the wise is not necessary. It is the stupid ones who need the advice.
