1968 Triumph Bonneville

A 1968 Triumph Bonneville (US edition) in very good condition. I reassembled it over several years spending thousands of dollars on new parts where required. The engine was professionally rebuilt with rebore, new pistons and all new engine bearings. Last run about a year ago when it started first kick. Renovations include - rebuilt forks with new fork stanchions, rubbers and seals. New headlamp shell and rear lamp. Factory-new Amal carbs. New exhaust pipes and silencers. Electronic ignition. New US-spec alloy mudguards. New sealed head bearings and new swingarm pivot. New speedometer (hence the mileage reading) In the interests of full disclosure: the tank was beautifully repainted, but the painter messed up the clearcoat - as a result, spilt gasoline caused the paint surface to craze (not visible on pictures). It really needs respraying. The seat is not the standard one for the year. The chrome on the wheel rims has some blemishes. The frame and engine numbers do not match.
