Having ridden a Thruxton, the seating position is a bit too aggressive for my taste... the 2016 Steet Twin Bonny would make a nice addition to the stable! I have had two Bonny Americas in the past and loved those bikes but they were a tad underpowered and the 2016 Americas don't seem to be getting the more potent 1200cc engine. I had 790cc and you would have a hard time getting a speeding ticket in a school zone riding down wind! Power isn't everything but a little more would have been nice. The later 865cc engine actually had less power than the 790cc (less horsepower). The new Bonnys are getting a tad expensive as well... Will have to wait for a 2 or 3 year old garage queen to pop up on CL I guess.
