40th question

Post by Skippy1827 »

A 40th anniversery Bonneville SE.
My question is, how many SEs were produced with the supercharged engine?

Whether you could get a 40th SSE SC, I don't know.

Given that the only way to get the L67 on an SE was with the SLE option package, and SLE packages made up ~10% of SE production... I'd think a S/C 40th SE would be extremely rare. Not all SLE's had the L67, either. I don't know if it was an option or standard on the 40th SLE.

This thread might give you an idea: viewtopic.php?f=39&t=1672

SLE production numbers generally aren't available, but from what I've seen I've arrived at the 10%-15% estimate. Anyone with better numbers feel free to correct.
