Since this was the first Triumph Bonneville I’d even done, I wanted to approach it with a concept in mind. My thoughts were revolving around the thin waist of a wasp and how this could be portrayed through the line of the tank and the seat. I wanted to create a bike that was aggressive but hidden within, a touch of elegance. By keeping the original Bonneville tank I reworked the seat to create the vision of a tight wasps waist, which gives the bike its elegant curves.
