Triumph Bonneville description

1979 Triumph Bonneville Special T140D 

I bought this a couple years ago after it sat for a few years under a tarp in southern California

After a complete flush, service, carburetor cleaning and a new battery it fired up and ran great. 

To make it ride able the rear brake master cylinder, drive chain, front wheel bearings and fork tubes were replaced. 

I rode this all last summer and a few times this spring. It’s a great running and fun to ride bike. 

I had planned to do more clean-up work on it but there’s a new baby coming so I need the money and won’t have time for it now.

It needs some cosmetic clean-up, the engine cases need cleaned and polished and some of the chrome is pitted from sitting so long. 

It still has the original paint and the factory seat is in great shape. The turn signals are not Lucas, they were replaced with copies, the exhaust is not original and the hand grips are not original.

Isle of Man TT 2014: Monster Supersport TT 1 Results

Mon, 02 Jun 2014

Gary Johnson narrowly beat out Bruce Anstey to take the first of two Supersport races at the 2014 Isle of Man TT. Riding the Daytona 675, Johnson’s win was the first for Triumph since 2003, ironically, with Anstey taking the victory that year in the Junior 600cc class. The race started three hours behind schedule due to fog, but once it began it quickly became a duel between Johnson and Anstey.
