I was referring to the original Bonneville term.

Though, come to think of it, covered in oil is highly probable in this case.

 

Was the Bonneville named for the salt flats?

Triumphs sold last year (2017

A guy I rented a couple of 400cc in Chiang Mai was excited when

Triumph opened facility in Thai. He wanted to get a couple to

use as rentals. 

 

He said the tax/duties were him to import them. Thinking that would change manufactured/assembled here. They added a luxury 

tax didn’t help lower the price much is what I was told

The price was lowered a few years ago when they went to a better tax scheme. I believe the price dropped from 700,000b to 500,000b on what ever model that applied. But all the prices dropped on Triumphs

I think they're excise taxes, not luxury taxes.

I agree, the ‘old’ /new air cooled Bonnie went down around 200,000b overnight and that farked-up anyone trying to sell a 2nd hand model!!

I posted this picture earlier when comparing the Bonneville Salt Flats with the Triumph Bonneville, but looking back at that, felt that this bike deserves a post on its own.  What a stunning bike in "plain" white.  



That’s plain alright...
