Hi pt can I make a suggestion, when you are out and about pull over in a safe place and do a walk round review of the bike .like a show and tell sort of thing .
Love the bonnie but sold mine, needed the room, and for me the commandos a better bike, got loads of grunt. If the knee holds out while I sort the Mk3 out
i just wish they would make all of then again iam like a kid in a spice shop i want then all often think this is my favourite and try another and then that's my favourite
Back in the 1960s, when I was a kid, my older brother had a Sunbeam. It was fairly old even then. Think there was an S2 and S3...not sure what it was. Can you get your hands on one of them, and do a vlog?
As much as id love to ,the only mate with one just sold it, it was a Model 9. Ive never had any thing to do with the Sunbeam's not so many about in my neck of the woods. cheers YB
I got one off my dad when I turned 17, a 1965, the lad who my dad got it from used to race it, it was pretty sharp, until I hit a wall,cost me 4 1/2 months in hospital
I much prefer these clocks to the grey faced earlier ones. These are like the ones that were on my 1973 Trident T150V. Regards from Burry Port, West Wales.
It had grey faces on when it came to me i fitted the others . they were repo's, could not find any original one at the time at a reasonable price. Been from Yorkshire I have to watch the penny's
I put black face on mine as well. Had to get them rebuilt two years ago from a man in Alberta Canada. Since I had the engine totally rebuilt,I had the odometer set back to 0. He rebuilt the tac and speedo to new,calibrated and with one year warranty. I sent them off and had them back within two weeks. A bit pricy. Around $700 Can.for both. But were like new and couldn't be happier with them.
@@derekcollins1972 Got my first one at 17 from my dad had it for 17 years, i picked this one up cheep, always considered my self a Triumph man, until i got my leg over the commando

I've bought my 68 Bonnie when I was 19 and is still my one and only. I'm almost 50 now and love it to bits.
Oh Pete watching that video brought back so many memories both good and bad thank you!
Absolutely bluddy lovely!

ill give it a go
I like your suggestion, also it's nice to see the clock and bars while riding
@@vidviewer100 Agreed. I'd like to see the instruments during the ride. Great channel, regardless.
I always wanten one of those in the mid 60tis but could´t afford one and now i´m to old but loving to see you riding one.Thanks a lot.

Exhausts sound very nice Pete, Graham wants some,x
i can do better than , he can have the bike
Maate! That's THE BIKE!
Not as good as the commando
You have a great selection of bikes. I reckon must just miss you at Squires cos I can’t say I recognise any of them from there or Seaways.
Most are laid up for the winter or a least while there's salt on the road. But end up there a few time's a week in the car to meet with the mates
Looks absolutely gorgeous. I wish Triumph would bring back the 650 Bonneville. After all Royal Enfield have been successful with their 650 twins.
i just wish they would make all of then again
iam like a kid in a spice shop i want then all

I know I lost my leg riding one but I absolutely love em!

Dream run on mi dream bike, mate. Sadly that's how it's gonna have to stay -- a dream.
Bought my first one when I was 17, it was from a lad who used to race it and it was super fast for the day. Eeeh fond memory's and to be 17 again
Yeah I ad one
If you,did that overtaking move over here they'd nab you for something real or imaginery

@@yorkshirebiker1293 I've never had the pleasure of riding a Commando,or any Norton as far as that goes. But I sure would love to give it a go.
@@derekcollins1972 the grunt is something else, i love the bonne but the difference
but saying that it's 180cc bigger
