Excellent Mike 
For me:
1. 71 Trophy
2. 68 Bonny (best engine note)
3. 75 Bonny
But all beautiful bikes, I'd have any of them.

Nice one Mike, good to see you back on the Classics. Has Steve finished that 900SS yet, I'd like to see that on the road.
Brilliant.
My very first brand new bike was a Bonneville T140V, cost me £837.
Loved it until a hasty ride from Sleaford with my mate on pillion in order that he wouldn’t be late to meet his then new girlfriend, now his wife saw oils seals blown.

That was simply brilliant Mike.
Triumph twins, surely we've all been there and part/parcel of how we've ended up here? I've done many many miles on a T140V but it was never as sorted as Dave's - I could honestly tell how sorted it was from the video. Looking down at those export 'bars and knees gripping the 'peanut' tank, that lovely long legged roar along those fabulous winding roads - momories memories.
The TR6C is is so so pretty but I I've always thought that I could never get along with that 'clock' position (I know that's how they were) It would have to be two clocks or one in the middle, the way that it is would drive me nuts every time that I looked down at it. A stunning bike though.
One of your best to date - Thank you. Please keep them coming.....

The video I have in edit at the moment is a RE Guerilla ... a bit more prosaic
I met him, yourself and the gang, at the Prees Heath event.
