In The Triumph Bonneville Motorcycle




In The Triumph Bonneville Motorcycle..............
In The Triumph Bonneville Motorcycle It is also natural to compare the new Bonneville with the 1969 T-120 Bonneville 650, generally regarded as the high point of classic Triumph design, (For a real comparison of the new Bonneville, W650, and H-D Sportster, see my article 2001 Comparison: Bonneville, Sportster, and W650.) Of course, the new Bonneville is a real Triumph, made in England, an advantage with which the Kawasaki cannot compete. This is much the same approach taken by Kawasaki in the design of its W650, a machine it is hard not to mention in any review of the new Bonneville. The new Bonneville is not a clone or copy of its famous namesake, but rather a modern motorcycle designed to fill the void created by the demise of its illustrious predecessor. (Isn't the Internet wonderful?) The responsibility for the accuracy and presentation of the information in this review remains mine, however.

He has graciously consented to share some insights and opinions about his new Bonneville for this article. Steve's previous bike was a Suzuki GT-750. In collecting information for this review I have been assisted by Steve Crocker, a 2001 Bonneville owner who lives in Sydney, Australia. The 2001 Triumph Bonneville was perhaps the most awaited bike of the year; the re-introduction of one of motorcycling's most famous models.
