This superb example of Triumphs T120 Bonneville was first registered on the 14th August 1967 in the UK and still sports matching frame and engine numbers! We have a number of old MOT certificates and Tax discs. The bike runs and rides as good as it looks in the pictures and videos.
Graced by one of the most evocative model designations in the history of motorcycling, the Triumph Bonneville owes its existence to record-breaking successes achieved on the eponymous Utah salt flats in 1958, when a Tiger 110 set a new 650cc production machine record of over 147mph. Launched at the Motor Cycle Show in September 1958, the production Bonneville remained recognisably similar to the first Speed Twin of 1938 for the next few years, as did Triumph’s other large-capacity twins. Unitary construction of engine and gearbox was already a feature of the 350 and 500 twins though, and that innovation duly appeared on the 650s in 1963. The café racers’ favourite since its introduction, thanks to lusty acceleration and a top speed approaching 120mph, the Bonneville continued in this new form as Triumph’s top-of-the-range sportster. By 1967 the frame had been sorted and 12-volt electrics standardised, but welcome improvements included improved forks, independently adjustable ignition points, Amal Concentric carburettors, and a twin-leading-shoe front brake.
