Used 1968 Triumph Bonneville Used

Seller Description

1968 Triumph Bonneville. Recent ground-up restoration on an original 10454-mile bike. The frame and most of the components were powder coated. The oil tank and side cover were painted with polyurethane. The fuel tank was refinished using Don Hutchinson supplied paint. I also have the new kneepads for the tank which haven't been installed. All the hardware was cad-plated or replaced with new British hardware. New Jones rims with Buchanan stainless spokes. I do have the original Dunlap rims which are very nice and they will go with the bike. The tires are new NOS Japanese K70s which are about as good as you can get these days. The front forks were completely rebuilt and the rear shocks were replaced with new originals. New fenders front and rear and a new complete exhaust system. The seat cover is new and the seat pan was repainted, also using polyurethane. The engine has been completely rebuilt. The top end was done by Franz and Grubb. The cylinder was bored and new pistons, rings and pins were installed. The head has new Black Diamond valves, guides, Intakes with seals and new springs. Carbs are new Amal premieres that are currently jetted for 5,000 feet. It also has a Boyer electronic ignition with new 6-volt coils and a new British wiring harness. The bottom end has all new bearings, seals, sludge tube, clutch plates and primary chain.

The trans looked excellent and shifts very well. The bike runs and rides like it should. Clear clean title in hand. If you know these bikes, you can see the detail. I don't need to describe everything. But if you have any questions, feel free to e-mail me.
