Triumph Bonneville description

1976 Triumph Bonneville T140V with Velorex Side Car. Bike has a rare European tank. Very Nice older restoration. This bike was restored approx. 1989. The odometer reads 28,503 miles but is not actual miles . The speedometer functions but fluctuates a bit reading much higher than actual speed. The title has the mileage as original which is under 13,000 miles and I am sure we have not even put 1,500 miles during our ownership. So actual mileage is not known. Again an older restoration which presents itself very well. The bike wet sumps when sitting for a long period of time as does many of the British bikes. It runs well, shifts through the gears smoothly, no clutch slippage, no smoking or strange engine noises, all lights work and horn. A very clean nice running Triumph Bonneville with a Velorex Side Car which shows very well with minor scratches and nicks as would be expected for an older restoration. All rubber parts including tires are from when this bike was first restored back in 1989. So recommending upgrading to new were needed. This bike is for sale locally and we reserve the right to end auction prior to it meeting the reserve price if it sells locally. This bike is being sold as is were is! We welcome anyone to view the bike in person. Please if you have feedback of 10 or lower or negative feedback contact us prior to bidding! Thank you and Good luck bidding on this Nice British sidecar set up!

New: Venhill 888 fast-action twistgrips

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

CONTROL specialist Venhill has launched its new 888 range of bike-specific fast action twistgrips.  Supplied complete with the company's top of the range Featherlight cables, the kits are designed for a straightforward replacement of the factory-fitted equipment.  Bike-specific kits are now available for the Honda CBR600F, Kawasaki ZX-6R/ZX-10R, Suzuki GSX-R600/750, Triumph 675 Daytona and Yamaha R1/R6, among others, with prices from £105. Here's Venhill's description of the new product: "Manufactured with a robust CNC machined alloy body, the 888 fast action twistgrip provides a choice of two settings and is supplied with two rotors so that riders can select the throttle action that best suits the riding conditions.  Settings can be changed swiftly by undoing the two set screws securing the throttle body and changing the rotor. On the fastest setting there is 80° of rotation, (taking up 36mm of the cable), which is typically 45% faster than 'standard' throttles.

Filling a void with an RD350LC

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

Last winter I managed to fill a void in my life when I stumbled on a very reasonably priced Yamaha RD350LC.  It was a tad scruffy, had the wrong exhausts but most importantly it was blue and white with all numbers matching.  I had the usual euphoria when the deal was done but I underestimated how much pleasure this particular purchase would continue to deliver another eight months down the line. The difference with this old bike is, instead of just taking it for the occasional ride I was talked into doing a full nut and bolt restoration.  Having never taking a bike apart completely before, initially it was quite daunting but I soon found the RD is easy to work on so it turned into a truly satisfying experience.  I’ve had some help from LC enthusiasts with the rebuild, however, the stripping, sourcing and organising was a total labour of love.  And call me sad but it has made me bond with this bike like no other which only adds to the feel good factor.  The bike cost £1800 and I’ve spent around £1000 but I reckon my mint Elsie is now worth a fair bit more.   I fancy rejuvenating a Fizzy  next time but there’s lots of other cheap 70’s and 80’s winter projects  out there so why not have a go yourself?
