Excellent. Slick 1970 Triumph Bonneville 650 Chopper Motorcycle 30 miles on rebuild Click images to enlarge Description Up for sale today is what is considered by many, the best vintage Triumph motor made, a modified 1970 Bonneville 650.  This is a combination chopper/bobber; modified hardtail frame, no front fender. I bought this to ride, but I have to get real. At 67, I’m not doing wheelies past the high school anymore. This machine was completely gone over a few  years ago including an engine and tranny rebuild, and has been ridden 30 miles since, spending most of its' time inside as a piece of artwork and that it is. My info is that during the rebuild all NOS parts were used where ever possible. King Tiger in Bainbridge Indiana did the engine and transmission work, and much more was done during reassembly. There are disc brakes front and rear to help stop it because this is a quick ride.    Springer front end is stretched. Has dual Amal carbs. Orange, red and yellow flames on a coffin tank. They are not painted on but a “wrap”, done very well. Bike is kick start only, has battery for accessories. Custom leather seat, pillion, and backrest with orange leather trim. Bobbed rear fender with pin stripping. Chrome hexagon oil bag surrounding oil filter. “Cat” taillight lens and custom license bracket.   The machine starts and runs very well and believe it or not, all electrics work as intended and the bike leaks but a few drops of oil. This sled is a very cool and fast. If you ever wondered what cool guys rode in 1970, this is it. See pictures for other details.   These bikes are hard to find and rarely available. It’s my opinion that the 1970 Bonnys are the best and the only bikes that are worth repairing / restoring . This one has been restored to be ridden, but also looks like a show bike. Newer paint on everything. I'm not a Triumph guy, but am a straight shooter, so check out the pictures as part of description.   So, Having a mid-life crisis? Receding hairline got you down?

This sucker comes without a windshield leaving nothing between you and your freedom. Nothing says I'm a man and I'm free like a June bug splattered across your forehead at 70 miles per hour.
