Went to work on my Bonneville for the fourth day in a row, every time someone has commented what a beautiful bike it is  8)  funnily enough, I've been going on my RT for the last twelve months and only had one comment asking if I'd thought about delivering pizza's or parcels in my spare time  :enjoying:

Lovely looking bike Simbo, would love one of them ... as a second bike, dont fancy doing 2 or 3 hundred miles in a day on the Bonny.. Reallly like some of the triumph models, but not the Tiger 1200 which would be the only offering they have close to what I need, thats why I changed my Triumph Trophy for a RT.

Simbo and Old-Git nice bikes. I have just moved house so its not going to be this year but next I'm very tempted in buying Triumph Scrambler 1200. Would like something naked and retro. Will keep RT. The Scrambler appeals because its seat height should suit my 6ft 1ins. Will have to go for a test ride. Unfortunately will have to wait too busy at the moment.

Just back from a couple of day's ride in Cumbria. Couple of pics of the scenery, and one of my bike from a different perspective....
