Triumph Bonneville 2001
2001 Triumph Bonneville - Classic MotorcycleThe new 2001 Triumph Bonneville is perhaps the most awaited bike of the year; the re-introduction of one of motorcycling's most famous models. In collecting information for this review I have been assisted by Steve Crocker, a 2001 Bonneville owner who lives in Solo, Indonesian. Steve's previous bike was a Suzuki GT-750. He has graciously consented to share some insights and opinions about his new Bonneville for this article. (Isn't the Internet wonderful?) The responsibility for the accuracy and presentation of the information in this review remains mine, however.
