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!

Create My Triumph

Tue, 08 Mar 2011

As you would expect we rarely get a minute to ourselves at Visordown HQ but at lunch time we had a quick play with Triumph's virtual bike creator. You can choose your desired model and colour, then load it to the hilt with all the accessories your heart desires. At the end you can view your masterpiece, print or email it or save it as your desk top image.

2010 Triumph Rocket III Roadster [video]

Wed, 07 Oct 2009

Over the past few model years Triumph strove to create some sense of how the Rocket can be used, eventually creating a touring-friendly model with windscreen and saddlebags as standard, called the Rocket III Touring. Then came the Rocket III Classic. More pulled back handlebars, floorboards rather than pegs, and two-tone paint helped define the powerful motorcycle as something appealing to the cruiser crowd.

New Triumph joins the family this Friday

Tue, 23 Mar 2010

With the nights drawing out it feels like an end to what has been a very long winter. I’ve been getting the train to work recently and if you’ve used London’s tube network in rush hour then you’ll know what I mean when I say the words ‘inhuman over crowding’. I had a call from the Triumph factory in Hinckley today and the good news is my new staff bike will be ready for collection on Friday.
