I've been having a horrible time trying to find a used Bonneville Black here in Alberta.
They simply don't seem to come up on the used market. Anybody else experience this?
I can find them in the states, but not up here in Western Canada. arrgh.

I've had the same problem, been looking for a thruxton without any luck. You've got more of a chance with a bonnie. There aren't even a lot of Triumph dealers around me.
It's either Ebay or buy it new so it seems.

Pop down to Western PowerSports on the Langley bypass... They had a couple of used Triumphs in there. This one is right on their website...

I've actually seen that bike floating around buysell, but at 9 grand, she's still a bit over my price range.

We sell them at Echo Cycle...
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

A bit of a ride from the Fraser Valley, but a nice one. The members in Edmonton are worth the ride too
