I know what you mean about being a Triumph guy. The line of my 69 Bonnie still sticks in my mind. That's why when Triumph announced the new Bonnie in 01 I went and immediately put a deposit on one. Still have it as a 994. Doesn't get ridden now with the Rocket. Love them both, the Bonnie has more or the iconic lines I associate with Triumph. Although the Rocket lines have grown on me, especially set up as a single seat, minimal add ons, mine isn't have rack and back rest and crash bars, but I still visualize the cleaner look , can't see it riding anyways. I've had Honda and Harley, but neither satisfy my soul like the looks, sounds and handling of my Triumphs. I loved my 69 Bonnie the most and best.
