Compared with the standard Bonneville, the Bonneville America has a very different ride, with the wheelbase extended 6. 4 inches. The saddle was lowered 2. 2 inches and the steering head rake angle increased by 4. 3 degrees giving a 33. 3 degree rake. The America also had a larger fuel tank with a 'chromed' plastic console to house the filler. The side panels were extended with sheet-metal covers over the passenger-peg brackets and perforated chrome fittings behind the carburettors to provide the 'retro look' of the air-filter covers from the 1960 Triumph twins. The rider's footrests were also moved to the front of the engine to create a 'cruiser' riding position.
This 2004 Triumph Bonneville America was purchased by its first owner in 2004, it was ordered with many thousands of pounds worth of extras the list is huge. The machine is in good order and has been looked after very well. It has been running recently but will need checking over before placing it back on the road. It is offered with a current V5C and an owner’s handbook, service book, a host of MOT certificates and some invoices.
