The only way I can tie this into the general monster area is to talk about ho much I love my monster, and other bikes. There, this can officially stay in General Monster Content.
When i dropped off my monster last summer to get Termis, I got a Bonnie for a demo to get back to work. I dropped it off during lunch. Honestly, I got a little scared. I loved the Bonnie. It had some arrows on it, so it sounded great. It was super comfortable, and didn't look half bad.
Lets just say I was scared, but it was a huge relief when i got back and heard my termis with the DB killers removed. BUT. I have always had a thing for Bonneville Blacks, and bobbers.
That brings me to this. I found this while looking for a Black for my wife to start out on in a few years. But now, it looks like her inheriting my 696 might be another option, so I can build one of these.
Feast for the eyes my friends! Amazing work, by a fellow industrial designer, i might add...

That does look killer [thumbsup]
im only 18 and suprisingly i think that looks extremely sexy
I'm liking it. [bacon] Any more details?
I can has?
:D
I like the Bonnies but honestly that thing is unbelievable.
Can we get some more info?
dooo iiiiiit!!!
n'mind what the others say if that bike speaks to you [beer]
besides, if the 696 is staying in the family, you can still jump on it to tool around if you feel like it! it's win-win

it's for any general motorcycle topics that aren't covered by one of the more specific forums.
They are not like women. You can have more than one motorcycle at a time.

no idea, an Industrial Designer in Aus came up with the concept I guess. Do a google image search for Bonnie Black Bobber. Not sure if it's for sale, I think it just caught some attention online.
I'm still thinking of buying a bonnie black in the future and doing this though.

exactly, we were talking about getting the wife a bonnie, and hey, we share cars, why can't we share bikes. I honestly think the 696 would "be hers" if i get one of these

yeah i was wondering if it as a PS job. Oh well, still some great ideas. yeah if you look at the wheels, the fron has a natural shade under the fender. the rear doesn't. oh well.
might look good. but i was bored out of my mind when i demo'd a bonnie. Perhaps this one isn't so ho-hum. But it would have to be significantly better than what I was on.
well, its not a street bike. i like it for its retro looks. Thats hy i ould never get a new not that isn't carborated.
here is another PS of a cool bike
this is this guys version of the BMW R1000 RS but in Streetfighter mode

I dont like it. the seat bothers me, it looks unfinished. the whole bike looks like it could be done in about an hour and a half and would be considered and "in progress" bike by most of the cafe/bobber aficionados I know

i have 4 Bikes and 3 women no prioblem ...and would have more of both if I had the money and stamina,but 3 duactis and a wife and two longterm mistresses is enough resource drain as it is ,and you can only ride one women or one bike at a time.
