READ THE DESCRIPTION CAREFULL...THIS AUCTION IS FOR ROLLING CHASSIS ONLY ! I have tried to find some history on this chassis, but have had no luck.

1960 Vintage Triumph Bonneville Drag Bike..Original Dragster (1960)
1960 Vintage Triumph Bonneville Drag Bike A great vintage drag bike but could easily be built into a bike to run at El Mirage or the Bonneville Salt Flats Here is a very cool vintage Triumph Drag Bike built in the 1960's. It is unique in every way. The frame is built of square tubing with a built in oil tank and a hand fabricated aluminum fuel tank. I have NO history on this motorcycle at all. I bought it as a rolling chassis and at the time it had an old original 18" Avon drag slick on it. I replaced the tire with a new M&H Drag Slick. The transmission should be gone through and has a broken clutch adjustment cable lug (I have the broken piece). The engine was built by a builder in Bakersfield, CA and has original T120 cases and an original tachometer drive side cover . It is missing the drive piece for the tachometer that bolts to the inner gear.It was built as follows and has not been run : Original 1960 Bonneville Triumph cases : Nine bolt top end with Bonneville 9 bolt head : Racing valves and springs : High compression 9.5:1 piston set up : One piece crank w/new bearings and re-grind : Polished con rods : High lift race cams : Balanced and lightened crank set up It has a BTH magneto with a fixed timing gear, I know it is hot but don't know the history. Needs to be timed I was told the front end was rebuilt with new tubes and it looks right. Things I know need to be done: Needs carburetors and manifolds I made a plate that fits between the frame rails widen the frame so the rear wheel can be centered. Needs to be welded. The rear brake plate fit a slot in the frame but I would highly advise setting up the brake with a traditional real stay bar. Just need a tab on the frame and a bolt on the brake plate.2013-09-05 08:25:42Moreno Valley, California, US1,1113,000.00
