Triumph Bonneville description

First year for the 750cc engine! First year front disc brake! Five speed!

One of the cleanest Bonny's you'll ever come across. Check the pics closely.Built in the mid 80's as a Custom Show Bike. I purchased from guy who built it a few years ago. Been in storage for 20+ years. I went thru bike and got it running. Then handed it over to Steve Silverman at Myers Cycle in Kensington,Md., 30+ years as a expert Triumph tuner. I have started, warmed up and shut down engine about a dozen times, retightened/checked head and cylinder bolts. I have only put approximately 10 miles on the bike. Making sure throttle, brakes, clutch, shifting are working okay. Runs strong. Starts and idles nicely!

Some of the details of the bike;Paint- Candy Wineberry over Gold w/gold lettering &striping. DiD aluminum rims, One inch bars and controls, Tons of Chrome-nuts/bolts,sidecovers,rocker boxes, hubs/spokes,head/tl.light,carb tops/bowls.etc.etc. Lots of polished aluminum- Engine cases, Lower fork legs,carb bodies. Gold plating-head/tl.lt rings, lower rear shock springs, frt,brk. calpr. cover, hdlt.ears. Recovered seat. Dunlop K 391S Qualifier tires/tyres.

Engine Specs as per previous owner and show spec sheet; 750cc bored .040 over w/TRW 9:1 comp.pistons, Megacycle Cams, Ported and polished Cyl. Head. Barnett Clutch. 3 bend cross over straight pipes. Has a nice 'Bark' to it!

I have changed engine oil twice, new oil in primary & gearbox. New Battery, Plugs and Wires,New petcocks, Fuel lines. Gas tank cleaned out, prepped and lined w/Northern Tank liner. New front brake lever/master cylinder and fluid. Lubed throttle, clutch, tach and speedo cables.I have a front fender and chainguard that will go with the bike also(white lettering on tires rubbed chngrd.). I liked the look w/out fender. 

Selling this bike in AS-IS condition. Some of the chrome shows wear, there are a few chips in the paint. It's not perfect or implied to be. It's a 40 year old motorcycle that was rebuilt 25+/- years ago.Gauges ARE working now, Wrong speedo cable(replaced w/a used one I had)Mileage listed is what is on speedo. I can deliver for a fee depending on distance or can help w/loading for you or your shipper.

POW! 2009 Triumph Daytona 675 Wallpaper

Tue, 23 Dec 2008

In a recent Motorcycle.com Review, Tor Sagen took to Circuito de Cartagena [map] race-track on the 2009 Triumph Daytona 675. Photog’s Jason Critchell and Paul Barshon caught the action as Tor rocketed the machine around 3.506 km (2.179* Miles) of track. Luckily for us, some awesome shots were caught in the process.

Filling a void with an RD350LC

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

Last winter I managed to fill a void in my life when I stumbled on a very reasonably priced Yamaha RD350LC.  It was a tad scruffy, had the wrong exhausts but most importantly it was blue and white with all numbers matching.  I had the usual euphoria when the deal was done but I underestimated how much pleasure this particular purchase would continue to deliver another eight months down the line. The difference with this old bike is, instead of just taking it for the occasional ride I was talked into doing a full nut and bolt restoration.  Having never taking a bike apart completely before, initially it was quite daunting but I soon found the RD is easy to work on so it turned into a truly satisfying experience.  I’ve had some help from LC enthusiasts with the rebuild, however, the stripping, sourcing and organising was a total labour of love.  And call me sad but it has made me bond with this bike like no other which only adds to the feel good factor.  The bike cost £1800 and I’ve spent around £1000 but I reckon my mint Elsie is now worth a fair bit more.   I fancy rejuvenating a Fizzy  next time but there’s lots of other cheap 70’s and 80’s winter projects  out there so why not have a go yourself?
