Summary:
Used 1959 Triumph Bonneville
Location:
Duluth, MN
Description:
Classic Triumph motorcycle. It is titled as a '73, but there is more to the story...It's actually a '72 that Triumph rolled over to the next year and titled as a '73.The handlebars are lower than stock and it has 60's TT pipes.And I'm guessing the tank is from a '66. So it has an older look to it.Mileage is 18,023History:The Triumph Bonnevilles are a range of standard motorcycles made in three different production runs beginning in 1959. The first two, by the defunct Triumph Engineering in Meriden, West Midlands, England were 1959 to 1983 and 1985 to 1988. The third run, by Triumph Motorcycles in Hinckley, Leicestershire began in 2001. It is named after the Bonneville Salt Flats, Utah, where Triumph and other motorcycle companies made attempts on motorcycle speed records. All share a parallel-twin four-stroke engine configuration. The current version, produced since 2001 by the modern successor of the original company, is a completely redesigned and re-engineered evolution of the original design.The original Triumph Bonneville was popular, particularly in its early years, for its performance compared with other available bikes. The original Triumph Bonneville was a 650 cc parallel-twin motorcycle manufactured by Triumph Engineering and later by Norton Villiers Triumph between 1959 and 1974. It was based on the company's Triumph Tiger T110 and was fitted with the Tiger's optional twin 1 3/16 in Amal monobloc carburettors as standard, along with that model's high-performance inlet camshaft. Initially it was produced with a pre-unit construction engine which enabled the bike to comfortably achieve 115 mph without further modification, but later in 1963 a unit construction model was introduced which was stiffer and more compact, including additional bracing at the steering head and swing arm. The steering angle was altered and improved forks were fitted a couple of years later, which, together with the increased stiffness enabled overall performance to match that of the Bonneville's rivals. Later T120 Bonnevilles used a new frame which contained the engine oil instead of using a separate tank; this became known as the oil in frame version. The T120 engine, both in standard configuration and especially when tuned for increased performance, was popular in caf racers such as Tribsas and particularly Tritons.*****"Consignment Motorcycles & Motorcycle Enthusiast Gear"Manthey Motors LLC - Motorcycle & Gear Exchangewww.mantheymotors.netPrivate vehicles are shown by appointment onlyCall or text 218-841-XXXX***** ACCEPTING CONSIGNMENTS *****Specializing in Craig's List, Ebay, Facebook, Pinterest, blog and website classified ads.
