I have a 2007 Bonneville and love it. Yes it is not the oh so cool bike like a Duc or an Aprilla that you must have if you live in SoCal, but it is still a great bike for riding around on. If you want to save some money there are still some new 2007's floating around out there. Great forum for Triumph riders here (they are doing a system upgrade today)
