2009 Triumph Bonneville And Bonneville SE

First Ride!
Just before I left for New Orleans to try the new Bonneville, I had an amusing conversation with a friend about the redesigned bike. The central topic was this: How could a bike whose entire appeal is nostalgia be “new?” We joked how the new one might look even older than the last, or how a new paint treatment adds a authentic-looking patina to the metal. When Triumph proclaims that they’re launching an all-new Bonneville, they’ve painted themselves into a corner haven’t they? I mean, what are they going to do, make it look more like the 1960s?
