1983 Triumph Bonneville

Clear

1983 TRIUMPH TSX BONNEVILLE T140 750cc twin cylinder I have described to the best of my knowledge: 2691 miles Original white Avon tires Bike is all factory original Electric start works Will have new battery Runs and shifts great Chrome good condition with no flaking or pitting Carbs and tank were cleaned and drained before bike was put in dry storage. Unfortunately while I was draining the tank I dropped it and put a dent in it. (see the picture) This is the only dent or ding on the bike. Bike can be shipped as is or I can add gas and get running again. Bike will have a new battery. If you are looking at this bike, you are well aware of the rarity of this motorcycle as illustrated by this partial description from the Motorcycle Specifications website: In the midst of all this, the factory workers produced 371 TSX 750s: 100 for the US, 200 for the UK and 71 for the rest of the world. Approximately one-third of that total number of bikes were finished in the black which makes this mint example a very exceptional machine indeed. Essentially a restyled Triumph Bonneville, the TSX was distinguished by its lowered chassis and 16-inch-diameter rear wheel, with the engine offset in the frame to accommodate this. Other changes unique to the model included a stepped seat, black-coated engine casings and engine with polished fins, restyled passenger grab rail, shortened front and rear painted mudguards (the latter having a black plastic mount for the vehicle number plate), mirror-polished alloy, short megaphone mufflers, Morris alloy wheels (then made by Performance Machine) and ‘retro’ graphics. Paioli rear suspension units, with plastic top shrouds, were sited at a more acute angle further back on the swinging arm to lower the seat height. A Brembo rear brake was fitted in place of the usual Automotive Products (AP) Lockheed item, which remained at the front. All in all, it was a well-supplied piece of kit for the day and one that now captures a unique and defiant period of Triumph history. Due to my health, I am unable to ride anymore. Therefore, I am selling my collection and will have more bikes to list. This bike is USED and being SOLD AS IS. NO REFUNDS OR WARRANTY WILL BE GIVEN.
