Hey, I am turning sixteen soon, and I really admire the Bonnevilles. Although money isn't flowing, I was wondering if this Bonny is Worth Purchasing.

1992 Bonneville SSE

White/Blue

It'* look like it has been maintained. It'* selling for about 4000 Canadian.

Here is a link to the picture: http://www.trader.ca/Search/Enlarged...goryid=1&CAT=1

Hey Doc..190 000 km is 118 000 miles and $4000 CDN converted to USD is about $2560, the dollar here is worth about 64 cents US.

I think its a great deal, $4000, is reasonable and haggling about the price will help.

Looks good to me, I'd seriously consider it
Good Luck

When you put the magic "i" after the SSE, your insurance rates do magical things.

Its amazing how that happens...isn't it just compressed air?

What a scam, insurance.... :P

The SSE is still nice, and for a 92, that has low kms, not as low as mine currently, but none the less

thanks there, I think i am going to stick with the sse, for lower insurance. I know I am giving up on the torque from an ssei, but it will simply be too much money.
