New Progressives are on :)

Beautiful bike, with shinney new shocks. I sat on a new purple Bonneville yesterday. To bad my pockets are empty.

Thank you! Except for the color and the bits that wear out, it's all original.

Nice looking bike; I wonder if Mrs. Sooke has seen it yet

Very nice indeed Tamara, you should be proud

I am. That bike makes me incredibly happy. You can see the next project behind and in front of my bike .

Aaaah yes I can! Looks a little bigger than the 450?

I did the Progressive upgrade front and rear recently on my 850. I got about an inch more height as a result and a vast improvement in ride quality and handling.

Also if you remove the rotor and the timing plate from that 1100 motor before getting started I found that it gives you a good place to grab on to and makes it a little easier when removing and the reinstall.

Cheers

Just a bit . It's an 1100L that belongs to my friend.

We got it out but I'll let him know that taking that off will make it a little easier.

Cool... thought it was for you

It's a nice bike but way too big for me . I sat on it and my feet are about 4" from the ground.

I'm 5' 1 1/2" so you could say I'm a bit vertically challenged

Dynamite comes in small packages .

What breed of shocks did you get ? Springs for the front end as well ?

Cheers , Simon .

Don't let him anywhere near your shock absorbers!
