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 before its rebirth in the early 1990s. In 1937 the Edward Turner-designed Speed Twin was released launching a range of Triumph twins that went on to epitomise 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 the last of the non 'oil-in-frame' models representing the peak of development of Triumph's most iconic model.
This T120R Bonneville, being offered with 'no reserve', is from a deceased estate having been part of the vendor's collection for the last 20 years. As a lifelong motorcyclist, he maintained and rode all of his collection in VJMC events and rallies. Not run for a while due to ill health, it will need recommissioning and comes supplied with a continuation green RF60 logbook together with a current V5C. The Bonneville is probably the most iconic bike of its era and still a classic bike that can hold its own in modern day road conditions, with excellent spares and technical backup from various specialist dealers. A great opportunity to acquire an important part of British motorcycling history.
