The Appeal

Honoring the place where Triumph-powered streamliners broke land speed records on Utah's salt flats, "Bonneville" is one of the most evocative names in the history of motorcycling.

By the 1970s, the model was a household name, and here we have a particularly fine example of the celebrated T140V from 1974. It's the twin carburettor model with a five-speed gearbox and Lockheed disc brakes front and rear.

The odomter shows a mere 7,731 miles which the vendor believes to be accurate.

The vendor says:

"I have had the bike for 10 years and it has been garaged throughout its life and is a credit to the build quality as it has no oil leaks. It has been recently fully serviced and is ready to be enjoyed in the summer months."
