Comments I believe there was a USA and a Eureopean variant of this bike. The difference being: USA 2.8 gallon tank and high handlebars. Eureopean version had 4gall tank and low bars.
Modifications compared to previous model Differed froom standard Bonneville of the day in that it was a certified limited edition with custom paintwork and decals. Red and Blue pinstripes on both rims, tank and side covers and Chromed Engine Covers.
