1966 Triumph Bonneville T120
This example is a nicely restored Bonneville. It’s a matching numbers bike It starts first kick, has electronic ignition and new paint, including frame. There are too many incorrect bits for it to win shows, but it is a very strong runner and really turns heads.rnThe tachometer has been rebuilt probably back Palo Alto speedo. They used a new bezel am not sure about the rest of it. The needles been repainted / refinished so the majority that is probably original.rnrnThe electrics are covered in plastic protectors with ties throughout. The pipes look like they may actually be original to the bike just maybe re-plated. I'm not certain about that but my hunch I just from this. Motor feels nice and strong fires up first kick.rnrnThe valve inspection covers are nice long extended ones with cooling fins on them - a nice improvement. The carburetors could be replacement new carburetors but I'm not certain. It has air cleaners air filters on it but the not sure those are original this year. The 1966 bikes had various air filter configurations.rnThe rear shocks are missing their shrouds. There should be a black cover on the bottom shroud with a chrome shelled covers over that, but some people like the look without them and that maybe what's going on here. The seat might be a reproduction - not sure about that.rnrnThere is an electronic ignition system by Boyer installed. Never have to worry about points and this thing fires up first kick. The fuel lines been replaced with a good solid fuel hoses unfortunately they're not clear but the clear fuel hoses don't stand up to the California gas.rnrnThere is a little bit of over chrome going on - the rear brake plate is chromed, the chain adjusters are chromed.rnrnThe rubber kneepads are doing okay but not perfect. The badges have been repainted it's a little bit brighter white and I'd like to see it be more of a cream colorrnrnThe steering damper is a little funky because the steering stop posts are missing. The Vin number on the frame is notoriously hard to read but that is typical of Bonnevilles.rnrn83 Miles since rebuild. I cannot verify original miles.
