That's a lovely Bonnie! Wish I still had my 1976 T140V 750 5Spd, but in a weak moment, I let it go. Mind you, I wouldn't have my 1996 900 Thunderbird if I hadn't. Both are awesome bikes in their own way.

A weak moment… or was it a moment of clarity? I still have pangs of regret about selling the ’64 VW Microbus Westfalia I rescued from a junkyard here in Albuquerque—largely because it wouldn’t stop quickly enough to avoid collisions (lots of veering onto the shoulder on the highway to avoid brake lights). If only I’d have known what I do now about retrofitting brakes!

But, I guess there’s a method to your madness. Sounds like you’ve got a bike you really enjoy, after all.

Regardless, thanks for the compliment! One of these days, I’ll paint-and-polish the sidecovers and finally be done with her!
