Triumph Bonneville description

A very nice example of an original machine. I have owned this bike for about 26 years. Original paint, numbers on frame match the numbers on the engine, ignition keys have "Made in Great Britian" relieved into them. Bike has 11,488 miles on it. Starts easily; tickle the carbs,
a couple of kicks on the starter and she lights most every time. New tires, Goodyear Macadam sport tires, rebuild of both front and rear brakes, new rear master cylinder, new battery (have not put acid in it yet, but I used my security system battery and she fired up as expected. Engine runs like a clock, all 5 gears work smoothly. All lights work as they should, turn signals included. The only flaws, if you could call it that, is the rear rail which holds the rear signals has had a repair where the signal goes through the gusset. I have been told that is rather common. I have a much nicer rail that I will include. Also, the red "kill" button, which is not a button but a flat lever switch which a small piece of broke off. The kill button works fine, but if you intend to show this bike a new kill button should be installed. All in all you will be hard pressed to find another original in this good of shape. If you have questions, my phone # is 703.472.6886. Thank you for your time |

Looking after number 1
Fri, 06 Jan 2012There was a time when a rider’s number indicated his position from the previous season, with the ultimate accolade being the number 1 emblazoned on the front of the champion's bike. The rise of branding in MotoGP and a rider wanting to market themselves, born from Barry Sheene and his retention of no.7, saw riders decide against displaying their finish from the year before. Rossi, who on winning his numerous championships, stuck with his famous #46 in defence of his titles, instead of stamping a great number 1 on his bikes.
Not a fake police biker
Fri, 03 Aug 2012So yesterday I was threading my way through London on Triumph's Tiger Explorer 1200 with panniers. Quite a wide load. Up ahead, I see a police biker and reckon on him being able to part the traffic enough for me to have an easier run down by the river.
