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 epitomise British motorcycles of the post-war years. To mark Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s Silver Jubilee in 1977, Triumph manufactured a special Silver Jubilee edition of the Bonneville. 1,000 were produced for the UK, with a further 1,000 for the USA and 400 more for other overseas markets, all featuring a stylish Silver, Red, White and Blue colour scheme. The side panels bore one of three legends: Limited Edition, One of a Thousand, or Limited International Edition. It is thought that the UK market machines got 'Limited Edition', the US machines got 'One of a Thousand', and the rest got 'Limited International Edition'.

This 1977 Triumph Bonneville Silver Jubilee limited edition, is a genuine UK example, purchased by the current vendor to go with his collection of limited edition Triumphs. This machine has sat next to a 'Royal Wedding' edition and a US specification 'Jubilee' 'Bonnie', also on offer in the sale. In good all round condition for its age, showing some signs of use and showing c.3,235 miles from new, some light recommissioning would be advised before use due to having been in storage. It is offered with a current V5C and a Certificate of Authenticity.
