Triumph Bonneville description

Hi ... up for bid a decent-running Triumph T-140.  I purchased this bike over the summer with plans to restore it over the winter, but due to other projects, I lost interest.  The previous owner rode this bike often.  I only rode it in my neighborhood a few times.  The bike starts easily and doesn't smoke.  The bike looks a bit better in the photos than it does in person.  The tires have good tread, but have cracked sidewalls.  The rubber on the foot pegs, kick start, etc. are worn and cracked.  This bike is worn, but not worn out.  It's perfect for restoration or a local rider.  This bike comes with some new parts not installed: a set of Amal premier carbs, new throttle cable, new handle bars, replacement side covers, and a top end gasket kit.  This is an oil in the frame bike. It has an old frame repair near the swing arm, as seen in one of the photos.  Also, the bump stop on the frame for the triple tree has a repair. Overall it's not a bad bike.  Any questions, just ask.  Check out my feedback as a seller. 

Thanks for looking!

Tom

2006-2009 Triumph Daytona 675 and Street Triple Recalled

Mon, 24 Sep 2012

Triumph is issuing a recall on the Daytona 675, the Street Triple and the Street Triple R for model years 2006-2009. According to documents released by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the regulator rectifier on the affected Triumph units may overheat, damaging its internal components. This may affect the regulator rectifier’s ability to control the charge capacity of the batteries, potentially leading the battery to become discharged completely.

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?

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 R/RS Review - First Ride

Fri, 03 Mar 2023

A significant engine update combined with further chassis refinement Credit: Photos by Gareth Harford, Andrew Northcott, and Chippy Wood For the previous week, I’d anxiously checked the weather reports for updates. Sandwiched in between swaths of little sun icons were two little black clouds spewing raindrops. Naturally, those were the scheduled dates for the US press to ride the 2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 R and RS on the Andalusian backroads and the famed Circuito de Jerez Angel Nieto in southern Spain.
