My New Transportation

 

I bought this around Jun 1, '09 ...  It's a '02 Triumph Bonneville, 790cc.

 

Trying to get back into the workforce, I couldn't locate a decent used Mustang, and then this little bug got into
my ear ... next thing I know, I have an ecomonical means of transportation!     Continued below ...

This is a custom seat that came with the Bonneville ... it's a "Corbin Smuggler."
I also have the original seat, in like new condition.

Well, I've come to the conclusion that, as much as I like the Bonneville, it's just not practical to depend on it for a ride to work.
The day will come that when I wake up, it'll be raining cats & dogs!  I've done a lot of riding in the rain, in several countries
and states, many years ago - but I'm not prepared to do it again.  It's too much of a dangerous proposition here in
San Antonio, with the intellect of the drivers!   So ... with no income, the Bonneville is for sale on "craigslist."

 

28 Aug 09:  I sold the Bonneville today, sadly.

 

I sold the Triumph fabric-style saddlebags, and the Corbin "Smuggler" solo seat, to different individuals.
