Good Times.  That's a great pair.  I have a similar pair in my garage - Bonneville T100 and S2R1K.  I always picture myself riding an old restored classic when out riding the Bonnie.  I think a lot of poeple think the same way and asks me what year it is.  They tend to get an confused look (something is not computing) when I tell them its a 2001.  

I have the same 'issue' with my Sport 1000 - the first question people ask is "What year is it?" and when I tell them it's a 2007, they look very confused.

The new Bonnie and Thruxton are both nice.  I considered a Bonnie before deciding on my 796.  I was looking for something to commute to work, and I love the classic look, but since I already had a Sport 1000, I decided to go with something more modern.

I love the new Commando as well!
