Triumph Bonneville description

Nicely restored 1972 Triumph Bonneville for sale. Very nice, correctly functioning rider with no mechanical issues. With a good detailing the bike could easily be displayed in a museum setting, however it is not a perfect bike. Please know that even thought it has been restored, the bike is 45 years old. Serious buyers please study the photos in detail and ask any questions for anything that is not clear. Bike was restored about 6 years ago. Do not have any additional photos or documentation of the restoration. Comes with clear OH title branded ACTUAL 29,500 miles and is exactly what you see in the photos, nothing more, nothing less.

It is in everyone's best interest for the buyer to clearly know what they are getting, so here is my best description of what I can see or understand about this bike:

Positive Points:

Very attractive style and very nice cosmetic condition
Good mechanical condition, typically starts first kick and does not have any mechanical issues.
Newer modern tires
Numbers matching frame and engine
Many other positive points can be seen in the photos

Negative Points:

Very small paint chip in white on lower tank (touched up, see photos)
Some small dings in the mufflers (need to look very closely)
Some minimal rust in some areas (look closely) that can likely be resolved with good detailing
Bike is 45 years old! So, although it does reliably start, run and ride, it IS a vintage motorcycle. Please understand that if you are a serious buyer.

If you have any questions please ask and provide a phone number and I will try to respond or discuss with you buy phone. I can also provide my number upon request.

Deposit by Paypal due within 24 hours of winning the auction and balance of payment due in cash in person upon pickup. I have used a shipper in the local area that travels everywhere east of the Mississippi and I can provide that contact upon request.

Other Notes:

The last 2 digits of vin "XX" are not actual. They are actually a sequential number between 25 and 33.

Bike is located in a NW suburb of Columbus, Ohio, about 2 miles from The Columbus Zoo and about 15 miles north of the junction of I-70 / 1-71.

Please see my other listings for more interesting stuff.

Please ask any and all questions prior to bidding. Returns are a hassle for everyone and waste time and money. I have a solid, 20-year history on eBay and want to be 100% transparent with everything I sell. I am not an expert on everything I sell, so if you want to know something I have not listed, please ask prior to bidding.

50th Anniversary Of The Great Escape To Be Celebrated With Electric Motorcycle

Wed, 26 Jun 2013

July 4th marks the 50th anniversary of the iconic Steve McQueen film, “The Great Escape,” and to commemorate the golden anniversary of McQueen’s escape attempt from German forces during WWII, McQueen Motorcycle will unveil a special electric motorcycle, the Xscape. The Xscape is scheduled to be McQueen Motorcycle’s first production motorcycle, with cues to incorporate today’s technology and integrate “the history and design of tradition.” Details are scarce at this point, but considering McQueen rode a Triumph TR6 Trophy in the scene, it would be reasonable to expect similar styling. In fact, looking closely at the photo above will reveal wire wheels, most likely a nod to the vintage Triumph.

Tue, 18 May 2010

Since the spark plug incident last month resulting in the premature demise of the factory fitted Metzlers, I’ve had to find some new rubber for the Speed Triple. With the Triumph’s punchy engine Commuting 1800 miles a month on motorways and city roads, I need something that will cover decent miles but also be up for some frequent country lane antics. With the BT023’s Bridgestone claim longer life with solid wet weather performance for touring riders whilst satisfying the demands of the keen sport bike riders.

Go camping with your bike

Thu, 05 Jul 2012

Keep your bike close to you when you go camping with the MOTOTENT from motorcycle adventurers Lone Rider. Priced at £450, here's a round-up of the features from Lone Rider: The MOTOTENT is spacious enough to shelter a dual sport bike as big a BMW R1200 GSA with all its luggage, to have room to work on it, and to be able to stand in the tent. The tunnel-shaped design allows a very quick setup of the tent when needed.
