Triumph is one of the most iconic and revered names in the history of motorcycling. Established in Coventry in 1885, by the start of the 1900s the company had made their first motorcycle beginning a continuous run of production under various ownership until its eventual closure in 1983. In 1937 the Edward Turner designed Speed Twin was released launching a range of Triumph twins that went on to epitomize British motorcycles in the post-war years. The Bonneville name, first used to commemorate Jonny Allen's speed records at Bonneville Salt Flats, is probably the most evocative of the era and was always placed on Triumph's best performing bikes.

This 1982 model year Bonneville had been a part of a small private collection for a number of years. With just two previous owners it presents as a very original Bonneville in excellent unrestored cosmetic condition, it is likely to have been one of the later Meridan-produced Triumphs. Previously, the wheel had been rebuilt with new rims and spokes by Steve Tonkin. The paintwork is the original distinctive Metallic Blue fading to Black paintwork style. We are advised that the machine is 'all up and running' and is supplied with the V5, handbook and some receipts.
