I love these old trumpets, I had to part with mine But I will get another some day! So much fun to ride esp. at a "ton-up" If you like your teeth to rattle outta your head that is I had a 1971 bonni, that was "bobbed" I had constant leak issues but after I gave up on that and just rode it, it was a blast. real cool bike.....enjoy

Nice I know the guy who runs that store and his brother has a great shop in nashua that is all about vintage brit bikes! I got a lot of parts of him over the couple years of re-building............I cant wait to start again it seemed like a pain at the time but now I miss it I hope within the next two years I will have another bonni to rip around
