This is the 2017 bobber I had when we lived in Switzerland. And my wife’s 50th anniversary Vespa.
When we bought these nobody told me I couldn’t bring them home to Canada. So when we came home we had to sell them both. I miss that bike every day. But recently got a new-to-me 2018 that I will mod until it looks just like that one.
Hi. I used to have a dirt bike and crotch rocket when I was young and stupid. But never a “hard-core know what I’m talking about” biker. I haven’t had a bike going on 30 years now.
I just happened to see your post, and I live your bike. You called it a bobber. What’s a bobber? Is that a type of bike? If so, what brand name and model was your 2017 bobber?
Just looking at that thing is giving me the “I want a bike again” bug.
That’s a Triumph Bonneville Bobber. Closest thing that I can relate it to is like a convertible, you have a car make x, then they also make the x convertible, well there’s a Bonneville and a Bonneville Bobber, and some other brands make bobbers of their bikes too. It’s basically a stripped down version that’s lighter and only sits one person on it.
