Triumph Bonneville description

This is a chopper project bike (non-matching numbers and NO title - sorry). EBAY forces you to make title selection - there is NO title !!

Frame is a '69 Bonneville pre-OIF (GC 21700 T120R). Steering lock lug has been removed to accomodate custom front end.

Steering rake has not been changed. Stock front tank mounting bracket has been removed otherwise frame is stock - side stand lug is perfect.

Not sure what is under the bondo molding !

Motor comes from a '72 Bonneville OIF (T120R AG 45495). This would be a 4-speed trans. Has matching belly numbers 

I do not think bottom end has ever been apart. Head has been taken off and valves removed (but I have them).

Castings are super original (no chain breaks, no broken fins). Looks to be a low mileage motor.

Turns over but there is surface rust at top of bores. Pistons are stock size. Carbs original Amal concentrics.

Hard tail is bolt-on and has very unique sprung rear wheel arrangement - not seen another like it - see photos.

Rear wheel is a Triumph conical hub with stock 18" rim and original 'made in England' tire :)

Front wheel is 21" rim with small hub - it does contain a small drum but no brake shoes or axle with it.

Some other parts: foot pegs and engine mounting plates, side stand, MITYMAX ignition, small/broken headlamp and a few bolts.

Pick up only from Brighton MI on this item.

May separate frame an motor if there is enough interest, but would make an excellent winter project to get running for next spring.

Email with any questions.
