The motorcycle bug has bit me pretty deep since getting my FZ6 in July. I've been drooling over a new Triumph Bonneville, specifically the Scrambler model. It has cool wire wheels, a vintage look, very tall seat, cool wire wheels, nice stretched-out footpegs for my 6'5" frame, a parallel-triple banger, etc, and it would be a great complement to my FZ-6 (which I have no intention of selling). And it has cool wire wheels to boot!
I've heard that older Triumphs were a maintenance challenge, and since the dealership is 45 miles away I'll pass on getting one if that's still the case, but have they improved recently? If anyone has a late-model Triumph I'd love to hear your experiences. The '07 I've been eyeing has carburetors (!) but the '08's will finally go to fuel injection to meet EU requirements.
And did I mention, it has really cool wire wheels?
