The Triumph Bonneville needs no introduction, but this classic Brit was named after the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah. Triumph was fairly successful racing this bike, including wins at the Isle of Man TT Production 750cc class in ’67 and ’69.
The Bonneville was produced in its original run (the T120) for 16 years, with a 650cc engine that made 46 horsepower. The parallel twin was based on the Tiger 110, but with upgraded Amal carbs that helped the bike attain 115 miles per hour stock – though Johnny Allen set a record in 1956 with a heavily modified Triumph hitting 214.17 mph over a standing mile.
This example (VIN: TR6RDU54745, Engine #: T120R DU49356) has also been heavily modified, but in an aesthetic way.
The odometer shows 18,240 miles.
The left footpeg mount is weak and will need to be reinforced before weight is put on it.
The throttle cable is loosely routed and will need to be anchored before this bike is a rider as well.
