and New Bonneville SE are gorgeous. I saw them at the dealer and the wheels, the fenders, the whole package is slick! I like the way its a bit lower too. Real sharp look.

Of course they are, I just bought a T100 in July 08. Not that I would do anything different, but it makes it dang near impossible to even LOOK at the 09's without my wife's head spinning around.

it's a beauty, but no spokes?

That bike just isn't right without laced wheels.

Want laces, get at T-100, this is a nicer, cleaner look, the smaller fenders and cool wheels really look clean.

Looks like one of the late not so great Bonnie wheels. Spokes would have looked much better.

In person, these look MUCH better. Spokes are available on the others, dare to be different.

Uh huh, Ian. And I suppose it REALLY "isn't right" 'cause it doesn't have a friggin' kickstarter EITHER, right?!



(BTW...has anybody else here noticed that maybe the reason the new '09 Bonnies all look just a little better is that they no longer have that unslightly "kink" on their exhaust just ahead of the mufflers anymore???)


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
