Description
Built in the style of a T120TT, this matching-numbers 1966 Triumph Bonneville T120R is one of the most sought-after Bonnevilles from Triumph's golden era. Finished in striking Aubergine and Alaskan White, it combines the legendary 650cc parallel twin with timeless British styling and all the character that made this model famous.
Beautifully presented and ready to ride, this is not an over-restored museum piece but a handsome, well-sorted example with the kind of honest character enthusiasts appreciate. Equally at ease on weekend rides, classic tours or on display at local shows, it is a motorcycle that attracts attention wherever it goes.
