1973 Triumph T140V 750cc Bonneville

Custom-made '73 Bonneville.

Engine number T140V-AH24743, Frame number T120V-EG55545.

Clear title in my name, titled off the '72 frame number.

Total engine and chassis overhaul.
 
Every segment of the motorcycle has been completely disassembled---engine, gearbox, primary and clutch, swingarm, forks.


The engine rebuild was a meticulous overhaul.

Our shop inspected and replaced every intricate part that showed wear.

The crankshaft main bearings and seals were replaced.

New connecting rod big-end bearings were installed on polished journals.

The cams were polished and lifters refaced.

The oil pump was overhauled.

The pistons and rings were replaced.

The valve guides were replaced with Precision Engineering bronze guides.

The valves are Black Diamond, which is the best quality in the industry.

Valve springs are heavy duty Kibblewhites.

A copper head gasket was installed to eliminate leaking.

Top-of-the-line upgraded Amal Concentric Premier 930 carburetors.

The exhaust headers are new T120TT pipes.

The gearbox was overhauled with all-new bushings and bearings.

The gears were in good shape, with no chipped or damaged teeth.

The clutch has been improved by installing Barnett heavy-duty clutch springs and clutch plates.

The primary chain was replaced.

The carburetors have been updated with chrome slides and improved carburetor ticklers have been installed, so you won't get gasoline on your finger when you tickle the carburetor during your starting procedure. The carburetion is finished off with new air cleaner elements.

The stock points and condensers ignition system has been replaced with modern electronic ignition.

The charging system has been updated with a solid-state regulator/rectifier.


Total chassis overhaul.

The steering head bearings have been updated to tapered bearings.

The frame has been painted.

The fork tubes were replaced, fork internals overhauled.

All wheel bearings have been replaced. The rims and spokes are original Dunlop units, and honestly look like new.

Tires are new Dunlop K81 TT100 (rear 4.25X18 and front 4.10X19). Bike is pictured with rear K91, but has since been replaced with new K81. 

Both wheels have been speed-balanced.

The entire engine has been bead-blasted and painted.

The original Smiths instruments are in good working condition.

The seat and tailpiece is new.

The gas tank and fenders have been painted. The lettering is painted, not decals. 

The overhauled engine has been properly broken in.

The head has been re-torqued, the valves re-adjusted, and the oil changed.

The levers are genuine Dougherty, as were found on the late 60's BSA Spitfire.

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

More than half of the new BMW R 1200 GSs that roll off the assembly line in 2013 will be fitted with Michelin’s new big trail tire, the Anakee III. BMW and Michelin worked together to co-develop the dual-sport tire, which is designed to deliver all the safety and off road capability big trail motorcycle users demand. The Anakee III will also be available as a replacement option for other leading dual sport bikes, like the Suzuki V-Strom, Kawasaki KLR, Triumph Tiger and Yamaha Super Tenere.

2011-2012 Triumph Daytona 675 and Street Triple Recalled in Canada for Unapproved Wheel Bearings

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Triumph has issued a recall for the Canadian market for the 2011-2012 Daytona 675 and Street Triple because the wheel bearings were provided by an unapproved supplier. At the moment, the recall is only for Canada and no recall has been announced for the U.S. market.

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.
