There are a few bikes that are pretty close to perfection even from the time they roll out from the factory, ones like the Triumph Bonneville. But that doesn’t mean you cannot add a few tweaks here and there to let it really shine. See this sweet custom from Ellaspede for example.

Brendan, the bike’s owner, visited Ellaspede with an idea; he knew that the bike looked spot-on, yet something could be done to make it even better. Soon, the decision was made to lose the fussy bits, add some colour and generally tighten things up.

The Bonnie gets a shortened frame, custom seat, custom graphics, a custom rear guard, lowered handlebars and black rims. There was talk of putting in spoked rims from an earlier model, an idea that was scrapped owing to budget constraints.

Following up on the major modifications were minor ones, like lowering the headlight and gauge, along with a custom shroud to smooth the headstock. The ignition, regulator/rectifier and horn have also been relocated via a British Custom bracket.

The rear receives a flexible LED stop light, relocated number plate, shortened mufflers mated to the original brackets and Posh indicators. The final job was a custom wiring loom to make all the new bits work, an air injection removal kit and an alarm.
