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 its 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. Many believe the T120 Bonneville, first seen in late 1958, to be the ultimate version of the classic British vertical twin and is now one of the most sought after bikes of the era.
This unit construction Bonneville, part of a private collection, left the factory in December 1965 and like most T120R models spent most of its early life in the USA. Repatriated in around 2009 it was given an extensive restoration at the time by Misden Engineering including new main bearings, big end shells, +20 pistons, Boyer ignition, new carbs, new exhaust system, powder coated frame, wheels rebuilt with stainless spokes and a full cosmetic refinishing. The speedo was refurbished at the same time and reads only 629 miles since. Run recently and supplied with a VMCC dating letter, a few old MOTs and a current V5C.
