Johnny's 72/64 Bonneville




Thought I'd show y'all this. It's my mates '72 Bonneville with a '64 motor in it. We built this up a couple of years ago. The rolling chassis was bought via that well known internet auction site from Middlesborough, complete bike minus the lump, speedo reading of 52k, last tax disc 1982 and it still had the Triumph tool roll under the seat! Of course everything wanted refinishing but it's all original underneath the paint and bling other than the front mudguard. The motor had been kicking about for a few years and it seemed a shame to let a T120 motor sit around doing nothing, so this is the result.
