In the article, it states: "Triumph always starts on the first kick—or maybe the second if you don’t put enough commitment into the first one." True! One must reeely want the Bonnie to start on the first oomph! Mine has ALWAYS started on the first. Always.

I don’t recall the make, but as a kid I remember a few frustrated motorcyclists failing the oomph until exhausted. Ever since I’ve dreamed of having one to fail with! LoL.

Yeah. I know what you mean. There's just something about those Triumphs . . . I know what it is! It's that they are hand-built and have all manner of idiosyncrasies and imperfections hither and yon, yet endearing to behold. I believe it's also called "personality." You don't hear a lot of motorcycle owners other than Triumph say I love my Bonnie, or my motorcycle, as it were.
