1/6 Bonneville
Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, October 16, 2004 4:17 AM
Hi all.

Just managed to add a 1/6 Triumph Bonneville to my Bike collection, a Bike that was sadely missing in my collection.

Pity is that it is a semi-build die-cast kit, otoh, it can still be improved with a bit of work.

She now holds a space of honour next to a few other goodies:
1/12 Vincent Black Shadow
1/12 Ariel Square Four
1/12 BSA Goldstar
1/12 Meguro 500 Z7 & Z6
1/12 Rikuo RT II
&
1/6 German BMW Police Bike
1/9 French BMW Police Bike

Really wish the would release more of the older Bikes like the 1939 Norton 500 used in "The Motorcycle Diaries" and so on, 1/9 scale would be nice too.

It is a scratch-build by a friend who is a professional sculptor, he gave it to me as a wedding present.

He did the build based on his own Bike.

Do you have any pictures? If so, would you like to share them with the rest of us here?
I would really like to see them.

I will aks him if I can publish pics of it on the Net, he is very peculiar as to what of his work can be publicly shown.

OTOH, I think I still got a big of the 1:1 version at home taken at a Bike show.
