Triumph Bonneville description

For sale is a 1979 Triumph T140 D Limited Edition 750 Bonneville Special

The “D” stands for Daytona, where the model was conceived.  It is all numbers matching with 6,215 miles, and will go up as bike is ridden frequently.  It has Lester cast wheels with newer tires, siamese 2 into 1 special exhaust that is beautifully tuned, external oil filter that is a great addition for the longevity of any Triumph, a strutless front fender that is unique to the model, and a Boyer Bransden ignition.  The paint is worn thin and has some blemishes; but the bike is mechanically sound, runs great, and everything works well.  It is an excellent rider.

Selling for a friend who travels a lot and wants to sell his collection.

The bike is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.

The buyer is responsible for all shipping arrangements and costs.

Thanks for looking…

A weekend of Lawn mower racing, Big Ed, Muc Off and Carlsberg

Mon, 14 Jun 2010

Around this time every summer the BMF hold the Garden Of England Motorcycle Show otherwise known as GEMS. The show happens to be round the corner from me so event sponsors MCE Insurance kindly sent me some passes so I could have a look around. Apart from the usual trade stands and crazy arena antics one of the highlights was the national lawn mower racing championship.

Triumph Speed - A City Tool

Thu, 29 Apr 2010

The Triple and I have covered 2500 miles now and most of that has been commuting through London. Last year I was riding Kawasaki’s ZX-6R and the constant gear changing, braking and acceleration was taking its toll. After 5000 miles the Kwak was feeling loose, rough and generally hard to ride smoothly.

Single sided chain adjustment

Wed, 14 Apr 2010

We don’t get the manuals with our long term bikes and I didn’t want swallow my pride and ask triumph how to adjust the chain on the Speed Triple. For the life of me I couldn’t figure it out. The single side swing arm with centrally mounted disk is a work of art but how the hell you are supposed to adjust the thing?
