Bonnie's new look!

[davidc]

The first, more traditional looking one, Gump. The second looks like an amoeba - or an ink blot test, LOL!

Hmmm, while the second has some potential I prefer the first one.

Otherwise, what colour are you going with? Military olive?

Davidc, you are right, I am quite pleased with how the left hand side turned out, but the bit on the right with the idiot lights looks like a nipple!
teebee, yes the paintwork is going to be olive drab military paint.
Anyhow, the 'nipple' is no more, and I have reverted back to the more traditional setup.
I have just fitted the LSL Flat tracker bars. They come complete with a longer brake hose. I got them from Mototwin for £68 including shipping. I like them!
What do you reckon?



Just waiting for my other stuff to get painted now.

I like that bar! Man, olive drab will look cool as hell, especially on a Bonneville - can't wait to see it.

How's the comfort factor of the new seat,Steve? How do you like the bars?

Hi bruce, the seat is really comfy, the only issue I have with it is the height. I have thruxton length rear shocks which are 1" longer than the bonnie shocks, plus the seat is about 3/4" higher than the stock seat. It is a bit of a stretch to reach the ground!
I'm going to see if I can drop the mounting by 3/4" or so.
As for the bars, I love em!

Looking damn good there, can't wait to see the olive drab military scheme!
