Triumph Bonneville description

1979 Triumph Bonneville Special T140D 

I bought this a couple years ago after it sat for a few years under a tarp in southern California

After a complete flush, service, carburetor cleaning and a new battery it fired up and ran great. 

To make it ride able the rear brake master cylinder, drive chain, front wheel bearings and fork tubes were replaced. 

I rode this all last summer and a few times this spring. It’s a great running and fun to ride bike. 

I had planned to do more clean-up work on it but there’s a new baby coming so I need the money and won’t have time for it now.

It needs some cosmetic clean-up, the engine cases need cleaned and polished and some of the chrome is pitted from sitting so long. 

It still has the original paint and the factory seat is in great shape. The turn signals are not Lucas, they were replaced with copies, the exhaust is not original and the hand grips are not original.

The Duke of Cambridge, Prince William, visited Britain’s largest motorcycle show, Motorcycle Live, at the National Exhibition Center in Birmingham. The visit saw the Duke astride numerous motorcycle models including UK icons Norton and Triumph as well as a Ducati 1199 Superleggera (one of the few men able to afford the $70,000 rarity). During his visit Prince William enjoyed a display of off-road riding – one of nine opportunities for visitors to ride at Motorcycle Live, eight of which are inside the halls of the NEC. He also met Dean Linehan, exhibitions director of MCI Exhibitions, the company that organizes the annual motorcycle exhibition.
