Triumph Bonneville description

Beautiful 1979 Bonneville Special
 Very low miles, only 1362 orginal miles 


The T140 Bonneville arrived in 1973, a 750cc adaptation of the 650cc T120 Bonneville. Featuring a five-speed transmission, the 750cc T140 was a direct response to the popularity of 750cc bikes from Honda and the other Japanese manufacturers, which precipitated declining sales of the T120. Between 1973 and 1980, the T140 underwent many running changes, several to accommodate ever-stricter requirements in the United States, and was released in several special editions.
 The engine featured revised cylinder heads and new Amal carburetors. Which brings us to this model, which is a T140D Bonneville Special. All Specials were finished in black paint with gold pinstriping and unique badges on the side covers. T140Es featured a grabrail that incorporated a small rack, but the Special had a unique grabrail that didn’t include the rack. The rear caliper is top-mounted on the Special, and those bound for the United States featured black Lester mag wheels and a specially tuned two-into-one exhaust.

Purchased in 2006 for me as a gift from my husband, we had it serviced and ran it around our property but never took it on the road
It kicked over quite easily and ran well
I however have another bike and didn't want to run this one down our gravel drive way, because it's too pristine.
I haven't started the bike in a few years and would suggest having it serviced before doing so.
Stored in a heated garage 
If you have any questions please let me know.  I may have the original handbook kicking around.  If I do I will include it.
Please email me if you have any questions annej@libertyclothing.com or call me on my cell phone  416-988-8336.
I have all the importation documents and title but have never licensed the bike in Ontario.

Priced to sell!

EICMA 2012: 2013 Triumph Daytona 675 and 675R Unveiled

Tue, 13 Nov 2012

Today at EICMA 2012, Triumph has taken the wraps off the hotly anticipated Daytona 675 and 675R. We first broke the news of a new Daytona last month, but details were still largely unknown at the time. As we expected from the fresh, updated look of the 2013 model, the 675’s updates are more than just skin deep.

Latus Motors Reveals Gary Nixon Tribute Livery for Triumph Daytona 675R AMA Race Bike

Defending Daytona 200 winner Jason DiSalvo will try to repeat on the Triumph Daytona 675R wearing leathers inspired by Nixon’s gear as well as the racing legend’s #9.

Total and utter destruction

Thu, 15 Sep 2011

Poor Ashley Beech. You've gotta feel for him. After a fraction too much throttle on the run down to Donington's Old Hairpin, the rear breaks grip amd he starts what should be a graceful slide across Craner Curve's neatly mown grass.
