looking for a W800

Please show me a Bonnie in Thailand for the same price and I will buy it.

Triumph Thailand has taken the price gouging marketing approach in an attempt to position their bikes as a status symbol and no bearing to the price of a made in Thailand bike. Why for example is a made in Thailand T-100 Bonnie 750,000 B

The W series bikes are not a copy of a Bonnie BTW, but began life as a copy of the BSA A-7 made by Megero in 1960. Some sources claim that BSA licensed Meguro to copy it. In fact Mugero made their own parallel twin as far back as 1954. Kawi bought Meguro in 1964 and introduced their own version of the parallel twin. 59 years later, this bike has evolved to the W800 of today and has a long history in its own right and a cult following

I own a T-140 Bonnie as my daily rider when in Canada
