Maintained as a showpiece with no additional mileage added during current ownership
Recently serviced by a Triumph dealership
MOT valid until November 2024
The Appeal
The Triumph Bonneville America is a classic cruiser that combines British engineering with American styling. You'd be forgiven for viewing its American lines as a Harley impersonator - but the pedigree of the Bonneville name sets it well beyond the swathe of 'fake Americans' on the market. Handsomely styled, very capable on the road, and practically built for long, straight roads like those crossing the states, the Triumph Bonneville America is a victor's bike through and through.
This 2005 motorcycle has been meticulously maintained as a showpiece, and it's clearly been pampered. Low mileage, and regularly serviced by a Triumph dealership, the bike has been kept under a dust sheet when not on display, preserving its striking Red and Silver paintwork.
With an MOT valid until November 2024, this Triumph America is ready for its next owner to enjoy - or ready to continue its life as a centrepiece for any garage or workshop.
