1968. The year I was born just up the road from Meriden in West Bromwich. The Bonny got me hooked on motorcycles when I was 16 in 1984. I'd been going mad for a moped and my parents weren't too happy with that so they arranged for their friend, Gaz, to scare the life out of me on the back of his '77 Silver Jubilee Bonneville. Glad to say that the experience worked the opposite way and I was henceforth hooked on the thrill, acceleration, freedom and sensations of two wheeled vehicles.
Ever since I found your channel I have found myself drawn to the classics. They had such a primitive start that really worked quite well. Maybe it's because I'm also an antique myself myself. , and I'm still in pretty good running condition also. Wahoo.!!
When I imagine a motorbike, this is what I see and hear in my mind. Truly classic!
I like that!
Considered by many to be the ultimate Bonneville. It's stunning!
Was a great ride too!
La Bécane à Fonzie est cool.... Ayyyy !👍
Wahoo!
Looks like '67 RE Interceptor 736 twin
Looks a little like your Bear 650.
I like that!
The bars seem a little wide....other than that, beautiful
Was a fun one to ride 🙂
