NEW Bonneville

Sorry for the lack of Sprint content here, but may be of some interest 
anyway....has anyone heard anything of the new 'retro' Bonneville that was 
rumoured awhile back?  Having owned a '77 Bonnie myself some years back, I 
was intrigued to hear of this about a year ago. The Kawi W 650 seems to have 
gotten the look down pretty well, given the restraints a manufacturer has to 
work with in this age. I have fond memories of that old bike, (the Bonnie, 
not the Kawi)! and to my old eyes, that was what a motorcycle should look 
like.  I've been tempted to try and find an original to restore, but having 
gone through that with a Norton Commando some time back, I can tell you it's 
not worth it unless money is no object and you are willing to spend $$$$ that 
you will never come close to recovering.  Well that's a different topic 
altogether....

'01 Bonnie anyone?
